SASL on google talk Problem

Smack Smack Dev
1

I know there are many forum posts on the subject but I have not seen a solution. Here is my code:

ConnectionConfiguration configuration = new ConnectionConfiguration(“talk.google.com”, 5222,“gmail.com”);

XMPPConnection connection = new XMPPConnection(configuration);

connection.connect();

connection.login(LOGIN, PASSWORD,“smack”);

connection.disconnect();

Where LOGIN is my gmail username w/o the "@gmail.com" part…

This block of code throws the following exception:

SASL authentication failed

This message appears to be thrown by the login() method. I have tried every iteration of the username. I saw this http://www.igniterealtime.org/forum/thread.jspa?messageID=147175&#147175

The reply appears to have prior knowledge of this exception but does provide steps of how to fix this. Any ideas on this would be great.

You can try this

XMPPConnection connection = new XMPPConnection(“gmail.com”);

No dice. I tried changing the connection to string “gmail.com” but it has the same problem. It appears that smack does not support sasl even though google talk requires it. Can anyone confirm?

It appears that version 3.0.3 is broken. I backed up to 3.0.2 and it worked great. Can someone please make some mention of this in the docs or possibly mark 3.0.3 as a beta?

This also work in 3.0.3. Try considering Network time out. And try your code several times

As far as I can remember, this issue has been fixed in 3.0.4, so basically 3.0.4 and above should allow SASL authentification with GTalk
