           Summary: Exporting images fails with : "Could not connect to
                    host xxxx.xxxx.xxxx.xxxx: Unknown error."
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: martinus.nel at gmail.com


Version:           2:0.10.0-1ubuntu3 (using KDE 4.3.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

When trying to export images to Picasa Web, the following error occurs:

"Could not connect to host 192.168.1.37: Unknown error."

After clicking "OK", the export window will just sit there and do nothing,
completely unresponsive.  Tabbing away to another application - say Firefox -
and tabbing back, will actually show a different dialogue box that was hidden
below the export one, saying :

"Checking if previous token is still valid"

The only option here, is to cancel.  This makes the original export dialogue
box responsive again, but only "help" and "close" if functional, the rest is
greyed out.

I use this on a monthly basis and never had trouble.  I generally do no look at
the updates, just apply them (yes, stupid user) so I am unsure if there was an
update to either digikam or the export plugin - known as Kipi plugins.


#Version information :
Yes, I lied on the form regarding KDE version, as I'm using Gnome to start with
and this is not (I hope for the sake of my unburned skin) a KDE bug.

KDE - 4.2.2-0ubuntu1
Digikam - 2:0.10.0-1ubuntu3
Kipi-plugins - 0.2.0
Ubuntu - 9.04


#Further information :
I do not have accounts with all the other services available under exports, but
most give the same error in any case.
The IP address that the error refers to is not on my network right now,
although it is in the range I use.
