[Archive] After a year of being puzzled, we've finally got the WLM 2009 problem solved!

Escargot MSN Server

Crash as in it hangs and ultimately gets Windows to intervene.

Oh

WLM has got the bends, oh no.

My What-Currently-Works-In-WLM14-Check-List:

:white_check_mark: Connecting and sharing profile information
:white_check_mark: Chatting
:question: Proper contact adding (it’s buggy)

this post gets updated with my current progress with WLM14

Update!

So one, @Craftplacer gets the gold medal for getting WLM 2009 past authentication and to the contact list! :stuck_out_tongue:

Two, I’ve been able to reproduce the same exact results with HOSTS entries of tkrdr.storage.msn.com and byrdr.omega.contacts.msn.com, since they don’t exist in the main program’s executable itself anymore, and I plan to get proper solutions for patching those services developed soon, and I think I know where to look… :stuck_out_tongue:

THE HYPE
IS REAL
rant rant war war

62

So I faced a problem. Accounts apparently can “die”. If you try to connect to them WLM errors out again.

63

When can we expect a pre-patched version of WLM 2009?

64

August-September i think.

65

Fantastic work, I look forward to the best version of the messenger soon :stuck_out_tongue:
I encourage your work :muscle:

Hello, I’m new here! I’ve been working on my own MSN emulator for the last 2 months and I made MSN 2009 work about one month ago. One of the problems that you had is that you were using the MSI version, which doesn’t install the contacts platform. Also, your patched dll seems to give problems too :stuck_out_tongue:. My solution to log to my server with MSN 2009 was to patch the login url in memory (yeah, a trainer) and emulate the RST2 soap response.
Here is a video of the emulator in action: Msn emulator written in Java Spring - YouTube
I dont know too much Python, but if I can help with anything (a log from the server with working MNSP18 commands perhaps :stuck_out_tongue:) , please tell me.
Greetings!

I know this could sound idiotic, but I tried running WLM 2009 after running Escargot’s msidcrl.dll file and it’s error code 80072ee7.

71

i’m getting different errors on @Craftplacer’s server.

72

note to all:
80072ee7 = Service could not be Found.

80048820 incase you want to know

disabling firewall or antivirus did nothing, infact, craft told me it was nothing on my side, i was actually connecting to the server, he doesn’t know why this happens

craft’s server does not need patching, but an edit to the hosts file will do it.

Sooo, basically, no edits to messenger, but to the hosts file.
