Have you followed each and every step?

I mean, have you successfully had the skype client to connect to skype net from desktop, authorized it to be connected by app, savwd the directory, installed directory to server, modified the startskypecleitns script?

Each and every step has to be followed precisely and in sequence.

Seems you have not followed the listed procedure.

Unfortunately this method does not work for me :( I've set up a new virtual box (ubuntu 14.04.01 LTS) with fresh FreeSWITCH from stash:

Skype 2.0.0.72-oss
Copyright (c) 2004-2007, Skype Limited

Signin fails with "Server connect failed" - no matter if I use correct or wrong password.

Any suggestions?

Excellent.  It's all working good now.  Thank you very much.


Following the hint from ThunderZ, I can announce a rough solution (I'll document it better next week):

1) you install the skype client downloaded by install.pl in a regular desktop linux

2) on desktop you load skypopen.ko and make the sound device as per start-skype-clients script

3) you start the skype instance on desktop

4) on desktop you connect to the skype net with username and password and set the "login at startup" checkbox

5) on desktop you compile the client.c you found in configs dir of the mod_skypopen source, as per the first line of the client.c file

6) on desktop you exec the client.c program you just compiled

7) on desktop you give the skype client authorization to be connected from skypopen application and check the "no ask again" checkbox

8) on desktop you exec the client.c program again to be sure it connect no problem

9) on desktop you save a copy of the entire ~/.Skype directory and cp it on server

10) on server you use that copy as a substitute of /usr/local/freeswitch/skypopen/skype_clients_configuration_dir/skype101 to skypeN (eg you copy it N times to skype101 skype102 etc)

11) on server you modify the startup_skype_clients.sh script so it simply launches the skype client, without username and password on stdin and without --pipelogin option

It takes a little time and patience, but it works, and seems robust as before.

The gateway skype-FreeSWITCH conference call is back online, answering at skypeusername "freeswitch_conf_call", as always :).
