File Send error with latest CVS..

[Zap]

Hello.

I've been using the CVS version for a while and file sends worked well, but since the login bug (MSNP13) I'm using the latest CVS version and I can't send files anymore. I'm getting the following error when clicking on the Send File item in the aMSN menu :

Code:

unknown subcommand "config": must be configurelist
    while executing
"$f1.menu config -takefocus 1 -highlightthickness 2"

Could you help me please ? I had to transfer a few files today and mailing them is far from being the ideal solution.. :?
Thanks.

I get the same error on my Slackware 10.2 with the latest CVS

It's weeks another guy and I have this bug too, we posted it but so far the problem could not be solved... looks like it only happens to a few of us.
However just yesterday I moved back to Gaim, since the inability to send files was getting more and more annoying each day that passed.
Of course I hope it will be fixed soon to switch back to aMSN again, since I really like it and appreciate the work the guys are doing here

You have two options :

1) Install the Desktop Integration plugin

2) Open file gui.tcl and comment the line that says: package require pixmapscroll

Only one of these two is enough. I'd recommend Desktop Integration

Commenting out the pixmapscroll line gives me this error:

About the Desktop Integration plugin, I tried but it never worked fine to me  
I have the same problem reported by other people too: the file dialog only appears the first time you open it and not anymore, and however the dialog does not return the file you select, it just disappears as if you had not done or chosen anything. I tried with the version that can be downloaded from the main site (0.9), are there any updated or corrected versions I could try?
Thanks for the reply, hope to hear you soon!

It seems that the tarball on the site is outdated. Download module amsn-extras with cvs.

About disabling pixmapscroll, are you sure you are using latest-latest CVS? the tarball? Tom made a fix for this one, but SF is still down

I just downloaded amsn-extras from CVS too and now the plugin works great, thanks!
About pixmapscroll, yes, I'm using the latest CVS, I update it every day, not the nightly build but from the command line.
Thanks again for your help, keep up your great work

[vivia]

Oh OK, the command-line one is not updated... not until SF decides to come back to life :S and it hasn't still Tom's fix...

Well, first I tried commenting the line, but I got the same error as DelusionsMaster..
I installed the desktop integration plugin from the CVS and now it works fine, thanks a lot !

It's great seeing that the problems are solved that fast.. Great support !

It's great to hear good words from some people... Thanx Zap
