Description

I'm unable to login with current hg version (1009:c76a6e4b37cf) of Beem. Login works fine with version 0.1.7 (or hg version up to 988:586e34fc7594) and stops working with 994:87c97dcb7136 (I'm unable to build anything inbetween).

Error is probably caused by invalid SASL response. Bellow are decoded base64 SASL challenge/response messages, the only visible diference is in digest-uri field.

V0.1.7: (works)

username="master_up",realm="njs.netlab.cz",cnonce="...",nc=00000001,qop=auth,digest-uri="xmpp/njs.netlab.cz",response=...,charset=utf-8,nonce="..."

HG version (does not authentificate)

username="master_up",realm="njs.netlab.cz",cnonce="...",nc=00000001,qop=auth,digest-uri="xmpp/lb1-hap.jabbim.cz",response=...,charset=utf-8,nonce="..."

I have no idea where the string 'lb1-hap.jabbim.cz' comes from.

The digest-uri field is compute with the hostname you specified when creating the connection.
lb1-hap.jabbim.cz is the server providing the xmpp service of jabbim.cz.

You should check your connection info (jid, specific server settings, proxy) as it appears you are connecting to netlab.cz server but try to authenticate with a user@jabbim.cz jid. (or the opposite)

If you can debug the code a little, you should check the mConnectionConfiguration field of source:src/com/beem/project/beem/BeemService.java

Thanks a lot for a hint!

If I change proper line to:

mConnectionConfiguration = new ConnectionConfiguration(mService, mPort, mService, mProxyInfo);

(mService == "njs.netlab.cz")
it starts working again, it looks like ConnectionConfiguration does some DNS magic (see documentation) when invoked as:

ConnectionConfiguration(mService, mProxyInfo);

I have tried some other XMPP clients and all work fine and use "njs.netlab.cz" as digest-uri. Have You anny suggestions what to do and what is really wrong?

What is strange (and probably a bug in initConnectionConfig()) is that setetting explicitly host in config does not help. I guess that if-ing/parenthesis are wrong and new at line src/com/beem/project/beem/BeemService.java:190 overrides new at linesrc/com/beem/project/beem/BeemService.java: 171 (new is called twice).

It is a bug indeed. I just refactor this part in commit 3f4c77587fb9. Can you please test it and see if you got better result ?
