doesn't survive a restart? #180

The plugin seems to work when I add the account for the first time, but when I kill pidgin and restart it, it will not log back into WhatsApp. Is this a known issue? If it helps at all, I'm using Ubuntu 22.04 with the nightly built binary on Pidgin 2.14.8.

Thank you for the report. This is not a known issue and certainly not intended behaviour. Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce the problem. Is there an error message? Can you start pidgin -d and send me the logs via eMail to github@hehoe.de?

Please note that the WhatsApp credentials are stored in the purple home directory, but in a non-standard location which might be blocked by security mechanisms such as AppArmor. In the debug log, there should be a line like whatsmeow: [Database] sqlite3 connecting to file:/home/username/.purple/whatsmeow.db?_foreign_keys=on&_busy_timeout=3000.

Thanks! Emailed you the outputs. I tried disabling AppArmor and it didn't change the result.
