Spark & OTR/Messsage Encryption
Is there a doc or tutorial on how to properly use the OTR function in Spark messenger? I tried it the other day. Clicked the lock icon, sent a few messages, the transcript wasn't encrypted at all though. Thanks.
Re: Spark & OTR/Messsage Encryption
the client transcript is written before encryption(when sending), and after decryption (when receiving). it may not be feasible to encrypt the transcript file, since the key pair would still have to be on the client somewhere, therefore it could be used to decrypt the transcript
Re: Cant login out of the blue
Nothing updated that ik of, versions were 1 before the newest, then i updated them to the newest when it wouldn't work. im getting "unknown connection error " when i first set it up i tried using the server name, couldn't get it to connect, so i switched it to the ipaddress... of 10.3.0.12
Re: Cant login out of the blue
Profile contains wrong format: "taylor" located at: C:\Users\TeamFCC\AppData\Roaming\Spark\user\taylor
Profile folder should be in user@domain format. Something is wrong here. Also, using IP is bad. You should try setting everything in such way, so it would work with your server's domain name. I hope that your domain name is not the same IP address though. As a workaround you can put IP into host field in the Advanced settings in Spark, but still use your domain for the Domain field.
Spark and Cached Credentials...
Hello,
This might be more of a support question but I figure devs would know best. I'm looking into all of the possible implications with moving over to LDAP during an openfire upgrade and noticed that spark allows caching credentials. Very quickly I identified a string in %appdata%\spark\spark.properties which begins with "password", and is followed immediately by a string... I haven't tried decoding/decrypting this string yet using any of the resources I have (like the private keys in the openfire server) or poking around any more than that. Figured I would start by asking...
How secure is the password cached here, or is it even secure? I am aware I can probably deny people the ability to save their passwords but I'm not sure I want to do that.
Thanks!
Re: Spark and Cached Credentials...
its not secure....I think the original purpose was to simply make the password not human readable. Spark was originally designed to run on a corp network, where most workstations/computers are protected by other means.
Re: Spark and Cached Credentials...
Perfect, thank you. I had a feeling it was simply encoded.
Re: How can i connect 2 OpenFire Server?
Thanks for answer
Yes i had enable services in both servers, i´d open port in both local firewall, one server are in linux and the other one is w2k12r2, i trying merge all rules, settings was create it, in w2k12r2 to Linux, both server are in the same domain, and use Windows LDAP...
Re: How can i connect 2 OpenFire Server?
No, they aren´t in cluster.....
Re: How can i connect 2 OpenFire Server?
What do you mean by saying they are in the same domain? Do they have the same value for XMPP Domain Name on the first page of Admin Console? Then they can't be connected via Server to Server. This connection is only for different domains. But i think S2S is not what you need as you want to combine two servers into one. There is no way to achieve this. Especially for rules, settings. As you use LDAP integration, i guess you have to pick which server to leave in place and then modify its LDAP settings to pick also the users, which are picked on another server.
Re: Spark & OTR/Messsage Encryption
There is no documentation/guide. OTR implementation is also very old and most probably won't be included in next version of Spark because there is no new libraries available to use with new build system. As speedy told, encryption happens during the transmission. To use it, one has to start the OTR, then the other side has to accept and then it should start encrypting the traffic.
Re: Spark - buscador
In case it's useful for any contributors planning on fixing this issue, I believe this may be related to SPARK-1888, as I had Search fail to install during a new install as well when I tested it just now, and I got the error, "An exception occurred while trying to extract plugin 'search'."
Eu acredito que isso pode estar relacionado ao SPARK-1888, já que a Pesquisa não conseguiu instalar durante uma nova instalação também quando eu testei isso agora e recebi o erro "Ocorreu uma exceção ao tentar extrair a pesquisa do plugin". "

Re: Does Client Control mess up history on Spark 2.8.3?
It means that 2.9.0 is needed for the new functionality. It shouldn't break anything. But it also won't add anything for Spark 2.8.3. So you can also not update it. It is weird, but that's just how things go. Spark is lagging behind because of a few bugs that nobody wants/know how to fix, but the changes for the plugin were already submitted, so why not applying them. Otherwise the patch might get lost or become incompatible waiting for Spark to be updated..
Re: Does Client Control mess up history on Spark 2.8.3?
That's good to know. I know that we'll end up updating to Spark 2.9.0 once it comes out on some PCs but leaving others on 2.8.3 and didn't want those users complaining about us breaking things that were "working perfectly fine before."
Re: Spark - buscador
That's odd. I was kind of expecting my new installation to have the same issue, but it does not. Search is working as expected for me. Have you tried restarting your server since you added the plugin? I don't know that it would help, but it's easy enough to try.
(I've started including English as well to help other users who are searching for this information)
Isso é estranho. Gostaria de esperar que minha nova instalação tivesse o mesmo problema, mas não. A pesquisa está funcionando como esperado para mim. Você tentou reiniciar seu servidor desde que você adicionou o plugin? Não sei se isso ajudaria, mas é fácil de tentar.
(Eu comecei a incluir o inglês também para ajudar outros usuários que estão procurando por essa informação)
Re: Spark - buscador
Vou tentar reiniciar, mais agora só na segunda-feira.
Posta aqui se deu certo ou não
Obrigado.
Update from 3.9.0 to 3.9.1
Hi! After updating to Openfire from version 3.9.0 to 3.9.1, users can not connect to the server. What can be wrong?
Re: Update from 3.9.0 to 3.9.1
Why are you doing an incremental update to an ancient release? Anyway, did you check openfire's logs? Why are you using the current release?
