Hi,
I setup the drupal Parachat module as instructed and also set up External Database Connection from the parachat control panel as explained here.
But still I'm not being able connect to the chat room. The chat loads and asks for Username and upon typing the username it shows Error: U825. Basically, the username is not being retrieved from the drupal db (i think!). If I disable External Database Connection on both the parachat control panel & the Parachat module settings then the chat does connect upon prompting for a username. Am I doing something wrong? All I'm trying to do for now is to allow authenticated drupal users to chat.

Title: Parachat not connecting » I feel really stupid...

I was embedding the html code provided by parachat to load the applet so, it wasn't working. Read the other issues and realized that /chat should load it. Sorry about my original post. However, it still doesn't work with External Database Connection enabled. But still I have a major issue; The chat is always connecting the user to the default chat room set in the parachat module settings page (which is good!) but then i dont find any options from where users can go to a different chat room! In the screenshot here there is a "Show Rooms" button on the top left corner but I don't have it. How do I allow my users to change their chat rooms?

Thanks in advance.
