Hi,

Yes thats exactly what it should look like

I seem to be running into the same problem: 

unknownc8bcc8da38b2:tutorial samueljoseph$ python login.py hpuchatbot ?????????
****************************************************************************
SkypeKit Python Wrapper Tutorial: Account Login
****************************************************************************
Exception AttributeError: "SkypeKit instance has no attribute 'socket'" in <bound method SkypeKit.__del__ of <skypekit.SkypeKit instance at 0x10055e0e0>> ignored
Unable to create Skype instance

I have the pem file in the same directory as the tutorial code:

unknownc8bcc8da38b2:tutorial samueljoseph$ ls
README call.py chat.pyc contactsearch.py conversations.pyc keypair.py login.pyc
autoanswer.py call.pyc contacts.py contactsearch.pyc downloaded-pair.der keypair.pyc token.py

unknownc8bcc8da38b2:tutorial samueljoseph$ more keypair.py
# You will need to replace keyFileName with a valid keypair filename
keyFileName = 'download_pair.pem';
distroRoot = '../../../';

Here's the command I am using to run the skype kit

unknownc8bcc8da38b2:mac-x86 samueljoseph$ ./mac-x86-skypekit-novideo
SkypeRuntime Copyright (C) 2003-2011 Skype Technologies S.A.
SkypeRuntime Version: 4.0/mac-x86-skypekit-novideo_4.0.2.1612_1128249
Proprietary and confidential, do not share this application.

occasionally I get this error from skypekit after the failed login attempts:

ERR: can not create server 0x0 id(0) 

and then skype kit crashes.  I'm using python 2.6.1 on OSX 10.6.8  

Any help greatly appreciated.

so I just upgraded skype kit to 4.1.2 and I think I might have things working now, although I get these errors from the runtime:

unknownc8bcc8da38b2:Code samueljoseph$ ./mac-x86-skypekit-novideo_4.0.2.1612_1128249/bin/mac-x86/mac-x86-skypekit-novideo

WirelessAttach: IOServiceOpen error: e00002c7
WirelessAttach: IOServiceOpen error: e00002c7
WirelessAttach: IOServiceOpen error: e00002c7

and I get no error from the login script, but it doesn't appear to do anything ...

I've tried contacts.py and chat.py and they are all just like the above - they don't throw an error, but don't do anything apart from print the comment thing.

Many thanks in advance for any help

aha, fixed it - I should have been using the 4.1.2 runtime!!!
