Hi Lloyd,

This is probably due to a protocol change change we made last week. We no longer support the old "Groupchat 1.0" syntax for joining rooms and instead require the new MUC protocol. You can see the new format here:http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0045.html#enter (7.1.2). This change was made in order to fix a bug Pidgin/Adium users were running into and I wasn't aware that anyone was actually using the old request format. Luckily the change to send the new request format is very simple.

Let me know if you still run into trouble after making this tweak.

Thanks,
Garret

>Starting yesterday 22/12/2011 the automated C# bot that I have developed https://github.com/lholman/AutoBot/ no longer successfully subscribes to all HipChat rooms in our account. I seem to be receiving a lot of the following roster management error messages.
