#6279: Windows cannot find... error when opening Hotmail messages
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
Reporter: novasource | Type: defect
Status: new | Priority: minor
Component: libpurple | Version: 2.4.3
Keywords: hotmail msn | Pending: 0
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
When I click on the indicator that says I have new Hotmail messages, a New
Mail dialog pops up. If I then click Open All Messages (and my Hotmail
account is the only account listed there and is preselected), the vast
majority of the time I get this error:
'''Windows cannot find 'C:\Users\[user ID]\AppData\Local\Temp\purple[6
random chars here].html.' Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then
try again.'''
If I check '''C:\Users\[user ID]\AppData\Local\Temp\''', there is in fact
no file by the name indicated in the error message.
Even more strange, if I sort all the files in the Temp directory by
timestamp, I see that there is in fact a purpleXXXXX.html file that:
* Has a different random letter combination than what appears in the error
message.
* Has a timestamp that is approximately 15 minutes earlier than when I
tried to access my Hotmail account and 42 minutes after my most recent
reboot. And I am 100% sure I haven't tried to access my Hotmail account
via Pidgin since the reboot.
* If I double click on the most recently-timestamped purpleXXXXX.html file
in the Temp directory, Hotmail opens correctly.
