Title: Double tabs when chatting at AIM
Post by: wor123 on 13 02 2017, 07:22:27

Hello:
I've a strange probelm in which when during chating, when I send the first message to the contact, the message from the contact appears in a new tab, seperated from the original tab, where I sent the first message.
Why this is happening?

I would check via Database Editor++ if there aren't two same contacts. That would explain this problem - you are writing to one instance of same contact, but messages are received for second contact.

You can also try to cleanup profile via DbChecker.

Sorry for the late reply. I didn't received a notification about your reply.
I downloaded Database Editor++ and this is what I found (See attachment).

I don't wants to lose the history of my contacts.

That's strange. I would create new profile and import all data from old profile (so backup the <profile>.dat file) via Import.dll plugin (bundled with Miranda).

I created a new profile, but import.dll, didn't imported history and contacts, so AIM contacts became visible only when I connected to my AIM account, and I had to import history for each contacts manually. As for the MSN contacts, I can't make them visible, as I can't connect to my MSN profile. Morever, Miranda NG closes without any warning or crash log, when I try to connect to my MSN account.

Import.dll have option to completely import everything (all accounts, contacts, history) from the old profile. It should work. As for MSN, you can perhaps switch to Skype, as I think MSN merged with Skype some time ago... But crashing when trying to connect to MSN is strange, maybe try to delete and recreate the account again? Or when you try it in completely blank profile, does it work?
And also make sure to run DBChecker on current profile, just in case, if it fixes anything.

I retryed to import the history and contacts for my MSN account to see why it didn't restored the history and contacts, but this resulted in a loss of all contacts and history for all accounts.

Try to contact @ghazan about that, he worked on the import plugin and database structure. Maybe he will get an idea or find some issue in your profile file.  ???
