We have Jive Messenger 2.1.2 running on a large corporate network and we are experiencing intermittent message (presence) delivery failures to the clients (Pandion, Gaim, etc). We experience the following on a regular basis,
1.) User A signs on
2.) User B signs on
3.) The server console shows that user B is signed on
3.) User B signs off
4.) The server console shows that user B is signed off
4.) User A never receives the ‘‘unavailable’’ presense message for user B from Jive Messenger
This problem is easily reproduced after being logged on the IM network from 30 minutes to an hour. We have verified through network packing sniffing that the presence message is never sent.
We believe the problem is related to internal firewall reconnection intervals causing “Broken Socket” errors to occur. Would it be possible to automatically reconnect to the client if the connection dies between sending messages? This could be a configurable server property e.g. “Client reconnection attempts” defaulting to 2.
Upon inspecting the server logs, we found
