Broken XMPP account status menu?
Hello, SailfishOS 1.1.9.28 (Eineheminlampi) (armv7hl): after managing XMPP accounts using mc-tool (mc-tool remove some-old-account), the lipstick account status control does not realise any newly defined accounts. -- How to fix?
Also, is there any detailed documentation of xmpp account configuration?
TIA, Oliver
What do you mean by "the lipstick account status control"? The part that's now hidden in the system settings where you can choose between offline/online/away/...? If so, I had a similar issue when you add an account right in the GUI. I'll try to reproduce what I experienced.

Exactly - the menu which was opened by swiping the home-screen inwards from the bottom with Sailfish <1.1.9.28 and which is now entered from the settings menu. With defined XMPP account controls it is used to set the user status.
The problem here is that a defined account does not show up in this control menu, rather than a message that recommends to define an account.
Background: I am fiddling around to get my Jolla corresponding with a private Ejabberd XMPP server I am administering. Used mc-tool to set ssl options. By the way, 'mc-tool dump' showed an old xmpp entry no longer in use (not visible in the accounts-screen). Removed that one - maybe this has confused the account-controls manager?
Best, Oliver

Only a few days ago I managed to create an XMPP account in the GUI (system settings > accounts) that showed up with all information I had entered in the list of active accounts, but did not show in the panel you mention. There was no error message, no hint on what to do, nothing. I solved it by deleting the whole thing and re-adding it, and I'm pretty certain that at some time along the way I did something different when adding the account than the previous times... but I can't recall.
Anyway, I used mc-tool to inspect the newly added account, and it seemed OK to me even when it did not show up. So I agree with you, I guess there's something wrong here.
I'm gonna check this as soon as I have time for it to see what exactly made the difference between an account that worked and one that didn't.
