I'm sorry, I don't mean it works with mod_skypopen this way, I cannot verify it. I'm just saying that skype static 2.0.0.72 still works via GUI, so it is not as you mentioned that microsoft has retired the ability for old skype client to connect to skype network. Siptosis also uses static 2.0.0.72 too, and it still works. They do it by configure each skype client via GUI, with no initial configuration files. During the setup process, they prompt the user to allow their "Skype4Java" api after skype client logs in. So I just think if mod_skypopen does it in a similar way, it will have a good chance to work too.
Wow, this is a very interesting finding!!!!
Are you positively sure it works, starting from no configuration files and using the GUI?
Can you describe exactly what/how have you done it ?

Old skype client still work, even though it takes a long time to connect the first time. Once it connects via the GUI interface, it does connect fast subsequently.
However, it looks like the way mod_skypopen using a predefined set of skype configuration files are not working anymore (or maybe it required changes). It would return an error "Server connection failed" every time.
It's probably better to do it the way siptosis does (which still works), i.e. configure each skype client via GUI, with no initial configuration files. Prompt the user to allow "skypopen" api after login, advise users what options should be changed on the GUI interface.
Although it means much of the automated setup of mod_skypopen will no longer work, but at least it may allow new skype clients to be added.
Ciao Kirill!!
Unfortunately, the problem seems to be that if you shutdown one skype client, you will not be able to restart it, it will not connect anymore to the skype network.
I'm sad to give you this news, but probably is true :(.

Hi Giovanni
Dialed our skypegw right after this message and it works. Our skypegw installed 3+ years ago and it still works like a charm.
Many thanks for that!

Seems the skype clients used by mod_skypopen do not work anymore, probably from yesterday.
Probably Microsoft shut down old skype clients possibility to connect to the skype network.
Last year Microsoft announced that was retiring support for the skype api, used by skypopen, so next clients will no more be compatible with that api.
That was not affecting old clients, they continued to work as always.
Now maybe Microsoft retired possibility for old skype clients to connect to the skype network.
This would be a right of Microsoft, and is clearly stated in their EULA.
Just a pity for skypopen users.
Hope this is not true (that is just a transient problem) but probably is true and Microsoft killed the old skype clients :(.
If it is true, there is nothing to do.
