Cryptic Error Message OfflineACC_E_FAIL

I'm trying to get the accjbot java example working with an eclipse plugin. When I run it I get the following messages on the debug console:
ConnectingACC_S_OK
ValidatingACC_S_OK
OfflineACC_E_FAIL

I noticed that ACC_E_FAIL is an error message in AccResult but the documentation provides no explanation of why it failed or what the error code means. Does anyone know exactly what this code means?

On a side note, I've tried the code with the key that comes with it, and also my own key. They both produce the same result of OfflineACC_E_FAIL.

WinXP SP2

I'm running Java version 6 update 5 (build 1.60_05-b13) and WinXP service pack 2.

Eclipse -> Debug -> Arguments -> Working Directory

I was able to get things working in eclipse by setting:

Eclipse -> Debug -> Arguments -> Working Directory

to the dist/release directory in the OpenAIM SDK.

cmd line

if you try to run from the cmd line, does it still fail?

Yeah, command line fails

Yeah I ran it from the command line after building with ant, and it still fails with the same output as mentioned above.

Possible problem in system clock

If you are failing after the connecting/validating state, please check that your system clock is accurate. As a temporary work around, we require that it be accurate.

Clocks are accurate

Both my windows clock and my BIOS clock are accurate. Is there a way to find out what time it is on your guy's clocks so I can set it to that?

offline

Can you send an IM to the screenname 'justinsblog' I'd like for you to file transfer all your binaries and see if I can reproduce on an XP machine.

thanks

Was out of town

Sorry for the delay in responding. I was out of town for a few days. Expect an IM from 'Insidious Gnomes' soon. I'd IM you from anomoly987 but the screen name has been botted and can't initiate a conversation.

It works now

I don't know what changed.... Must have been something on your end, but it works now. I ran the sample exactly as I was running it before and it works now. Woohoo! Thanks for your help everyone.

Re: Stand-alone accjbot sample doesn't work

Yes, unfortunately E_FAIL is not helpful. If you're on Linux, please visit http://dev.aol.com/aim/tutorials/linuxinstall. If not, please let us know what platform you're using.

Stand-alone accjbot sample doesn't work

Even if I run the accjbot sample by itself, it doesn't work. I get the same messages:

ConnectingACC_S_OK
ValidatingACC_S_OK
OfflineACC_E_FAIL

This means that it has nothing to do with the eclipse plugin aspect. Can anyone tell me how to get this example to work?
