[cisco-voip] WebEx question

But I have SDC, do you think I will hit the same issue with the mobile app?
Also is the situation currently stable with the MR5? As in some cases the newest version suffers a lot of opened bugs that's why I was thinking to go with the MR4 instead of the MR5.

Hello,

TAC actually headed me off at the pass. I had updated to MR5 but had some issues with the MDC deployment. While fixing those issues, they told me about this mobile app issue and told me to go to the hotfix.

Thanks,

James

So as a conclusion I can go with MR5 and if I faced an issue with the mobile client I can open a TAC case to get the hot fix which is what happened with you James ? And after that hot fix was everything running smoothly with you James?

Hi Tim, did you installed the MR4 in your environment ? And is it working fine ?

Hello,

The certificate issue with the mobile app is not yet in the release notes. If they will reference TAC case 635173083 when you open your TAC case, they can see if you need the hotfix or not.

Thanks,

James

Open a TAC case. It is post MR5.

Hi James,

So I can go directly to MR5 with the hotfix you mentioned, but how I can get this hotfix if it is not published on Cisco.com<http://Cisco.com><http://Cisco.com> ?

Hello,
It would be cumulative. However, I went from MR2 to MR5, so I'm not sure about MR4. I would just get TAC to publish the hotfix for you with special file access.
Thanks,
James

Hi James,

One question here, I assume that everything mentioned to be fixed in MR4 and earlier should be included in MR5, am I right ? isn’t it a cumulative updates each one has all previous fixes plus new fixes ?.

Also based on your feedback is it better to install the MR4 instead of the MR5 ?

Hello,

MR5 will not fix the URL question. However, applied without the hot fix I mentioned it will break the mobile app because of a bug regarding certificates and how they are issued.

Thanks,
James

Hi Ahmed,

I think the difference is the PT tools invites use plain text only
I guess it’s because you can’t embed the hyperlink in there..

I have not tried the short URL feature yet, but I believe it will replace that long URL yes.
I don’t think it will replace it with “Join the meeting” I think it will just replace it with a shortened URL
So it should be shorter and neater but not exactly like the web invites.

Looks like we need to be careful of the issue James raised though.

Cheers,

Tim

Hi James/Tim,



Just to make sure we are on the same page, I have the major release of the CWMS 2.5 without any MR releases installed.

Here is what I meant by my question,

This is a snapshot of the invitation received for a meeting initiated from web (with short hyperlink):



<image001.jpg>

And here a snapshot of the invitation received for a meeting initiated from outlook client (with long URL):



<image002.jpg>



So coming to your suggestions, will the MR5 fix this issue ? and will make the outlook invitation looks neat like the web invitation ? also, James did the MR5 caused issues with mobile client access with you ?



Many thanks for your kind support.

If you go to MR5 you will break the mobile app. Just found out from the BU the other day. There is a hot fix they can publish for you.
