in reply to Problems with POE::Component::Jabber and DJabberd

Well, I'm going through RFC 3920, and I think the issue is with PCJ:
Step 5: Server informs client that it is allowed to proceed: <proceed xmlns='urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-tls'/> Step 5 (alt): Server informs client that TLS negotiation has failed and closes both stream and TCP connection: <failure xmlns='urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-tls'/> </stream:stream> Step 6: Client and server attempt to complete TLS negotiation over the existing TCP connection. Step 7: If TLS negotiation is successful, client initiates a new stream to server: <stream:stream xmlns='jabber:client' xmlns:stream='http://etherx.jabber.org/streams' to='example.com' version='1.0'> Step 7 (alt): If TLS negotiation is unsuccessful, server closes TCP connection. Step 8: Server responds by sending a stream header to client along with any available stream features: <stream:stream xmlns='jabber:client' xmlns:stream='http://etherx.jabber.org/streams' from='example.com' id='c2s_234' version='1.0'> <stream:features> <mechanisms xmlns='urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-sasl'> <mechanism>DIGEST-MD5</mechanism> <mechanism>PLAIN</mechanism> <mechanism>EXTERNAL</mechanism> </mechanisms> </stream:features> Step 9: Client continues with SASL negotiation (Section 6).
So it looks like PCJ is correctly creating the stream, the server responds, but then it dies. I think?!?

Further down in the RFC we have:

Step 1: Client initiates stream to server: <stream:stream xmlns='jabber:client' xmlns:stream='http://etherx.jabber.org/streams' to='example.com' version='1.0'> Step 2: Server responds with a stream tag sent to client: <stream:stream xmlns='jabber:client' xmlns:stream='http://etherx.jabber.org/streams' id='c2s_234' from='example.com' version='1.0'> Step 3: Server informs client of available authentication mechanism +s: <stream:features> <mechanisms xmlns='urn:ietf:params:xml:ns:xmpp-sasl'> <mechanism>DIGEST-MD5</mechanism> <mechanism>PLAIN</mechanism> </mechanisms> </stream:features>

But PCJ doesn't get the mechanisms. It looks like it chokes on the preceding stanza. At least, that's how I see it right now. Hmmm.
