New Google Talk and iChat SSL Error - 9843
I'm not sure what has changed recently, but since
yesterday I haven't been able to use Google Talk with iChat. An attempt to
connect to the Google Talk server with iChat fails and opens the following error
message
window.
Here's what I got in the console window:
2005-09-09 08:28:04.658 iChatAgent[599] WARNING: SocketStream: CFStream error 3/-9843 occurred on input stream
2005-09-09 08:28:04.658 iChatAgent[599] WARNING: XMLStream: CFStream error 3/-9843 occurred on input
2005-09-09 08:28:04.676 iChatAgent[599] WARNING: JConnection: Error: An unexpected SSL error occured.
[-9843], type=2, code=-9843
I got the same result on three computers, with at least two different Google talk accounts. Moreover, Adium and Coccinella had no trouble connecting. I was able to successfully use iChat with other Jabber servers, for example, jabber.org.uk.
The only thing that I recall doing on the Macs before iChat became incompatible with Google Talk was I installed the Quicktime and iTunes updates. All three Macs that I used to check iChat with Google Talk had these updates. I suspect these are coincidental, but it'd be good to have someone confirm that the problem exists without the updates. Anyone else out there have this trouble with iChat?
UPDATE[09/11/2005622am]: I posted about this on my O'Reilly weblog and got some useful feedback. The problem appears to be unrelated to the various Apple updates. I didn't think they were, but I thought it was worth seeking some feedback to confirm that. Anyway, as one of the people who provided feedback on that weblog pointed out, Google is aware of the problem and has promised a fix:
