Hotmail authentication not working?

[sonereker]

Anyone else having problems with Hotmail authentication? Not accepting username/password.

I'm seeing this issue as well (getting a protocol error). Haven't had the chance to dig much into the code, but happy to help if nobody's already working on this.

I just found out that, I got this error on my logs:

Hotmail has changed its protocols, please upgrade this library first. If that does not work, report this error at http://rubyforge. org/forum/?group_id=2693

[deneuxa]

Get the same error ("Hotmail has changed its protocols...")

hi i've patched the gem
https://github.com/liangzan/contacts
its working for my own code so far. let me know at the repo if there're problems

[flgm-repo]

Hi Liangzan, is your fixed ready for production? Is there anything with yahoo that I think is broken too, how can I help?

[liangzan]

my fix has all tests passing. the tests are ran against real email accounts. i haven't seen anything wrong with yahoo so far. feel free to raise an issue on my repo. for a working ruby 1.8 version, you can check out https://github.com/deneuxa/contacts
mine is meant only for ruby 1.9

[flgm-repo]

Excellent, let me try that one then!

[deneuxa]

Feel free to make any improvment as I'm pretty newbie :)

[flgm-repo]

Hi there, should I install the gem like
gem install liangzan-contacts
for 1.8 ?

[deneuxa]

nope: do that gem 'deneuxa-contacts', '~>1.2.10', :require => 'contacts'
just updated the readme now...

[flgm-repo]

Perfect, installing now, let me check! thanks again

Hi guys! the gem is fixed and it works, unfortunately I don't why with my yahoo account it says that username and password don't match, but in my local works correctly, has anyone faced that?

[flgm-repo]

c = Contacts.new('yahoo','[email protected]','mypassword')
Contacts::AuthenticationError: Username and password do not match

But in my local works:

c = Contacts.new('yahoo','[email protected]','mypassword')

It's working for me with yahoo on both: prod and local

[liangzan]

me too

[flgm-repo]

I created a new yahoo account and I was able to see my contacts, I'm getting errors from other users specially with yahoo, I don't know if yahoo blocks or have some security enable when trying several times with wrong credentials.
