Jabber for IPad Directory Issue

Guys,
I'm been beating my head against this issue for the last couple of days and I think a new idea would be extremely helpful!
Problem: No Corporate Directory being shown at all.
Jabber for IPad client Version 9.1
CUCM 8.5
CUP 8.6(3)
Microsoft AD Environment
Every single other client I have can access the corp directory (Android, Windows, CUPC) and I'm getting Presence and Contact list on the jabber for ipad client. Can anyone maybe post a screenshot of the product specific device fields or offer a sugestion? I've followed the Admin guide, but have obviously missed something :/
Gareth

Hi Gareth,
I noticed this too. It depends on where you are searching from within the client.
If you are logged into the Presence Client - then your search is from the ldap profile assigned on CUPS to the end user.
If you are searching from within the CUCM portion of the client it uses the product specific section of the TABXXX client on CUCM
LDAP Server           FQDN.domain:389
LDAP Username     i have used the same one as for my LDAP directory Distinguisged Name\domain(without the ".local")
LDAP Search base     DC=xxxx,DC=local
LDAP field Mappings      mainPhoneNumber=ipPhone
we also have in the
"reserved" field the domain domain=xxxx.local
hope this helps
cheers

Jabber for iPad video issue

How can I troubleshoot video issues?
I setup the iPad device (G711) and then placed a call to a Jabber for Windows (G729) phone. Audio worked fine but no video. I changed the Jabber for Windows to G711 and video started working?
Is Jabber for iPad going to support G729 and if so when?
Thanks,
Doug

Hello i have the same issue!
Someone find the cause for this issue?

Cisco Jabber for windows directory issue

Hello ,
i have cucm 9x and cup 9.x ,
Cisco jabber is showing directory but its all user from MS out look User not LDAP user and also user and on Jabber client connection window Directory is showing not connected .
please advise .

J4W does NOT use the directory info that you configure in CUCM as a UC service, it relies on the domain info from the machine you're logging in as default, or the config from the .xml file.
If you cannot connect to the directory, make sure there's nothing blocking the communication, and that your configuration is correct.

Jabber for iPad, photo issue

Hi,
I am currently testing jabber on my iPad, everything (Call,Search,Chat) seems to work fine, except contact photo does not show. I had it working great on my iPhone and window, but for some reason the iPad does not.
I will appreciate any help! THANKS

Alright, so here's what we did to get you started. We used advice from point #2 in this link https://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-28771:
**Disclaimer, I cannot guarantee that this will work for you, this is only what we did in our environment. That said, yours seems similar. We are sync'd with AD, however we're on 9.2 or rather the latest and greatest as of today. You may want to reach out to Cisco TAC to confirm this resolution if you have a current support contract.**
Open a web browser and navigate to your presence server. Once logged in, open the Legacy Clients Settings menu. (Application -> Legacy Clients -> Settings)
Once the Legacy Clients Settings menu opens, check that the variable ‘sAMAccountName’ is entered in the field directly to the right of the ‘Photo’ field under the second Legacy Client User Fields column (see photo #2 below, field that needs to be confirmed is circled in red). In our case, this field was blank. Once we added the needed ‘sAMAccountName’ variable (waited for around an hour or so *see #3 below) the photos started appearing in our iPad clients.
Again, once you add this variable, it may take an hour or so .... maybe longer or shorter depending on your environment .... because the presence server will need to sync the changes. I'm not sure if the iPad client is directly pulling the photo from AD based on a pointer on the presence server or if it's pulling the photo directly from a database on the presence server itself, however, I do know that a sync specifically needed to happen before we started seeing the photos. All we did was wait .... albeit, semi patiently.
I hope this helps, we know first hand how complicated this system can be. Feelf ree to ask any other questions if you have any. Good luck!

Cisco Jabber for Mac - Directory Lookup and Contact Fields

Hello,
After having issues myself with Cisco Jabber for Mac 9.2 specifically with Active Directory lookups not working, or contact information not populating (and therefore not being able to call users from the contact list as no telephone information exists) I am including a sample jabber-config.xml file that works for me.
Please note: there are many different ways to configure this. What I will be showing is the method that works for me and my deployment, which is pretty standard.
As always and as a disclaimer, once again, this is what has worked for my deployment scenario. Always keep backups of your configuration files, and always be mindful of anything you have configured already, especially in the jabber-config.xml file.
Background
My deployment is based on CUCM 9, with 1 publisher and 2 subscribers. I also have a CUCM IM & Presence 9.0 server. This assumes that you have already configured your deployment and Jabber is functioning already, albeit with the aforementioned issues.
As for Active Directory, my deployment will be based on Windows 2008 R2 Domain Controllers running in native 2008 mode. For this example, we will be searching directly against one of the DCs with a Global Catalogue role. Please be aware that in large deployments you will have to plan accordingly with regards to lookup traffic from Jabber clients to the DCs.
Also, as of Cisco Jabber for Mac 9, the client no longer can search via the CUCM internal directory (which may be made of local end users, Active Directory synced users, or a mix of both) and this must be done via a LDAP mechanism.
Scenario
In this deployment scenario, Cisco Jabber for Windows is working properly - you can search and add people from Active Directory, and contacts in your contact list have all the appropriate fields populated from Active Directory. However, when trying the same with Jabber for Mac, Jabber for iPhone or Jabber for iPad you notice that you cannot perform a directory lookup, and if you add people directly (for example, [email protected]) the user only has the IM field populated. No telephone, email or additional information is displayed.
Solution
Whereas Cisco Jabber for Windows uses the EDI mechanism (native Windows), whereby when running from a computer that is on the domain (or in the event that you are search for contacts in another Active Directory domain where a domain trust exists) , Jabber for Mac / iPhone / iPad uses the BDI mechanism.
In this case, you will need to provision a jabber-config.xml file that you will upload to your TFTP server (or Publisher) that will be "downloaded" by your Jabber for Mac client and also used by the iPhone and iPad client. You can configure many options in the jabber-config.xml file, but for this example we will place just the information that we need to order for these clients to request and display Active Directory information.
Please note that the configuration may vary depending on your deployment, but at the very least we will be:
- Configuring a DC where we will perform the lookup.
- Configure credentials that will be used to perform the lookup. This will be an Active Directory account that has read rights on the Active Directory domain. Please note that these credentials are saved in plain text in the file, so ensure that the account that you will be using is not privileged.
- Configure the server port that we will be using to perform the lookup.
- Configure the Search Base. This is basically where we want the directory lookup to happen. You can either choose for this lookup to start at the "base" of the domain (and therefore the search will iterate through all the user accounts and and OUs below the root base) or define a specific OU where you want to search.
Caution!
- There is a current limitation with Cisco Jabber for Mac whereby you can only have 1 search base configured. Please keep this in mind if, like me, you have multiple OUs (like an OU for each company in your organization) and under these OUs you have sub OUs as a user account container.
- If using the top level search base, unless you specify a filter, you will potentially be able to search for all user accounts in the domain. You will need to configure the <BDIBaseFilter> parameter if you want to fine tune your search ability.
Steps
These are the steps I have followed. Other steps or considerations may vary.
- Log in to your TFTP server and download the jabber-config.xml file and keep it as a backup. If you are already using the jabber-config.xml file for other purposes, do not worry - you can add your BDI information parameters inside.
- Remove the jabber-config.xml file
- Edit the jabber-config.xml file and configure thus:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<config version="1.0">
    <Directory>
        <DirectoryServerType>BDI</DirectoryServerType>
        <BDILDAPServerType>AD</BDILDAPServerType>
        <BDIPrimaryServerName>DOMAIN CONTROLLER IP ADDRESS</BDIPrimaryServerName>
        <BDIPresenceDomain>YOUR PRESENCE DOMAIN</BDIPresenceDomain>
        <BDIServerPort1>3268</BDIServerPort1>
        <BDISearchBase1>YOUR SEARCH BASE</BDISearchBase1>
       <BDIConnectionUsername>[email protected]</BDIConnectionUsername>
        <BDIConnectionPassword>PASSWORD</BDIConnectionPassword>
        <BDIEnableTLS>0</BDIEnableTLS>
   </Directory>
</config>
For example, let´s assume the following:
- Domain controller IP address is 10.1.1.2 .
- Your presence domain is test.local .
- Your search base will be test.local using the top level of the domain.
- Your username with which you will be doing your searches is called walt . Usually you can either identify walt as test.local\walt or [email protected] . It is always best, in these sort of scenarios, to use the UPN convention so we will be configuring a [email protected] .
- The password is the Active Directory password for the account walt .
- I have disabled TLS in my case. There are issues with the Jabber for Mac client when using other security methods.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<config version="1.0">
    <Directory>
        <DirectoryServerType>BDI</DirectoryServerType>
        <BDILDAPServerType>AD</BDILDAPServerType>
        <BDIPrimaryServerName>10.1.1.2</BDIPrimaryServerName>
        <BDIPresenceDomain>test.local</BDIPresenceDomain>
        <BDIServerPort1>3268</BDIServerPort1>
        <BDISearchBase1>DC=test,DC=local</BDISearchBase1>
       <BDIConnectionUsername>[email protected]</BDIConnectionUsername>
        <BDIConnectionPassword>walt01!</BDIConnectionPassword>
        <BDIEnableTLS>0</BDIEnableTLS>
   </Directory>
</config>
One you have configured the jabber-config.xml file, you will now need to upload it to you TFTP server. Once uploaded, you will need to restart the Cisco TFTP service. Again, my TFTP server is on my CUCM publisher, so:
- I go to Cisco Unified OS Administration on my Publisher server, TFTP File Management and I upload jabber-config.xml to / directory
- I then go to Cisco Unified Serviceability on my Publisher server, I locate the Cisco TFTP service and I restart the service
Once this is done, you can figure up your Jabber for Mac client. As a test, on your Mac (using Terminal) go to:
/Users/username/Library/Application Support/Cisco/Unified Communications/Jabber/Config
In here you will see several files, but what we want to see is jabber-config.xml . As soon as you start the Jabber for Mac client and log in, the jabber-config.xml file will download from your TFTP server and get saved here. When you see it appear, just type in your terminal window more jabber-config.xml and make sure that the output is the same as the xml file you created.
From there, try doing directory search. If you have previously added contacts and they still lack attribute information, you will need to remove them (sometimes it will not refresh properly) and add them again from the directory.
I will be updating this guide and ammending anything that is incorrect, but this is meant to be a quick checklist and steps to get this, at least in the most very basic version, up and running for Jabber for Mac.

Hello,
Thanks for this post! It works, I can do lookup and also I can add found contact to contact list and get information about contact from LDAP.
One more question: - I can't get all information about contact. I don't get e.c mobile phone number and more others attributes. I have tried to expand your file as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<config version="1.0">
<Directory>
<DirectoryServerType>BDI</DirectoryServerType>
<BDILDAPServerType>AD</BDILDAPServerType>
<BDIPrimaryServerName>IP of AD</BDIPrimaryServerName>
<BDIPresenceDomain>Presence Domain</BDIPresenceDomain>
<BDIServerPort1>3268</BDIServerPort1>
<BDISearchBase1> Search Base</BDISearchBase1>
<BDIConnectionUsername>User</BDIConnectionUsername>
<BDIConnectionPassword>Password</BDIConnectionPassword>
<BDIEnableTLS>0</BDIEnableTLS>
       <BDISipUri>msRTCSIP-PrimaryUserAddress</BDISipUri>
       <BDIPhotoSource>thumbnailPhoto</BDIPhotoSource>
       <BDIBusinessPhone>telephoneNumber</BDIBusinessPhone>
       <BDIMobilePhone>mobile</BDIMobilePhone>
       <BDIHomePhone>homePhone</BDIHomePhone>
       <BDIOtherPhone>otherTelephone</BDIOtherPhone>
       <BDITitle>title</BDITitle>
       <BDICompanyName>company</BDICompanyName>
<BDILocation>co</BDILocation>
<BDIPostalCode>postalCode</BDIPostalCode>
       <BDICity>l</BDICity>
       <BDIState>st</BDIState>
       <BDIStreetAddress>streetAddress</BDIStreetAddress>
</Directory>
</config>
But it didn't help.
When I capture lookup via Wireshark, I can see that Jabbers sends search request with bunch of attributes, but from LDAP answer contains only 8 attributes. (see attached screenshots)

Webex Meeting Center and Jabber for Ipad support in Webex Telepresence

Hello, I have a two questions which are unclear based on my browsing of posts in this thread.
1) Are traditional Webex Meeting Center meetings able to be joined to a Webex Telepresence session? Ie. I have two callway/webex telepresence nodes (SX20 and a C40) can they have a webex meeting center participant brought in?
2) Is Jabber for Ipad supported using the Webex Telepresence service? Using the example endpoints above I have a SX20 and C40 and they want to add a Webex for Ipad endpoint in.
Thanks.

You cannot have Telepresence endpoints using Callway service(WebEx TP service) join a webex session directly. You can do this however using WebEx enabled Telepresence which is meant for on-premise users to work with WebEx
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/telepresence/infrastructure/tms/config_guide/webex_enabled_telepresence/cts_webex_config.html
In the call way (aka WebEx tp service), the work around is you have to use an endpoint that has multi site capabilities to make one video call and see video from other end points and then make an audio call to the WebEx service and bridge them together. Now users can audio and video and presentation remains on WebEx but it's not like the true webex enabled telepresence which today call way doesnt support
See attached PDF last page. Also you may need a PSTN subscription to make that call happen

Jabber for iPad - BFCP support?

Hi All,
Can't find a reference to it anywhere but does or will the iPad support BFCP?
Thanks

Hello,
Regarding BFCP and content sharing from Cisco Jabber Video for TelePresence 4.8.6 on Windows to Jabber Video 9.3.9 for iPad clients.Jabber Video for TelePresence(Movi) cannot stop sharing presentation on the call.
I wish to know if what versions this is actually fixed in? I have read the release notes and I am still unable to find an answer.
I read in Cisco Bug Toolkit this is a known bug CSCup04761 and the only workaround is to disconnect the call.
CSCup04761 - Movi can't stop sharing main video presentation Symptom:Jabber Video for TelePresence(Movi) cannot stop sharing presentation on the call.
Conditions:When using Movi to share a presentation to an endpoint that doesn't support BFCP (such as Jabber for iPad).
Workaround: Disconnect the call.
Details Last Modified: Oct 9,2014
Status:Fixed

Jabber for Windows / iPhone - issue with photo and search

Dear community,
I have an issue regarding Cisco Jabber for Windows as well as iPhone & iPad.
I recently upgraded our Call Manager infrastructure from 8.6.5 to 10.0. Along with that, I wanted to rollout the new Jabber for Windows (9.7.2) because now we use a very old version (9.2.1).
After I upgraded my test client, I noticed that the user photos (which are retrieved from active directory) were gone.
So for the first time, I decided to modify the the jabber-config.xml (I attatched the two different versions).
I used the jabber config generator to create the new version: https://supportforums.cisco.com/document/106926/jabber-config-file-generator
My attempt is to achive these goals:
1) I want one config file which is working with Jabber for Windows, iPhone & iPad, Android as well as Jabber for Mac
2) I want a secure connection from the client to our directory server
3) I want to retrieve the user photos from the active directory user (attribute thumbnailPhoto)
4) Jabber should find only users which are a member of the active directory group "example" (example is a nested group which contains several users and at least _one_ other group). Until now, the whole active directory was searched for users/contacts.
So far, 1) and 2) seems to work fine. 3) and 4) are the troublemakers and I really don't no why.
Can somebody help me?
Best regards,
René

Look at this thread. You can find the answer there.
https://supportforums.cisco.com/discussion/12241391/ldap-contacts-and-photos-jabber-ipad-iphone-and-android-not-working
First I had to uncheck "Use UDS for Contact Resolution" and then I had to create a new jabber-config.xml and upload it to the TFTP server.
But there are a few limitations you have to deal with. But I have mentioned that in the other thread.

Unable to login with Webex Connect and internal VCS simultaneously on Jabber for iPad

Our users have downloaded the Jabber 9.1 client for their iPad, and we have Webex Connect accounts for IM, as well as internal VCS, TMS, Jabber Video accounts, and VCS Expressway. They install the client on the iPad, select corporate accounts, then go into Webex login information. They enter their credentials, go ahead and log into Jabber and see their contacts. On that screen, there is a box that says "set up Voice and video calling" so they click that, then go to Voice and Video calling, but the only thing thye can select is Jabber for Telepresence. They cannot select VCS on this screen, which would let them go into the VCS internal settings, etc. So if they select jabber for Telepresence, it asks for a username and password but that is all...so it's trying to register them to the free Jabber Video cloud. Is there some step we are missing? We ultimately want our users to be logged in with their Webex Connect accounts for IM, and have the video portion of the Jabber client pointing to our internal VCS Control.

The Data Structure that holds the Accounts, User&Groups information is on the Boot Drive. That Data Structure stays on the Boot Drive and cannot be moved, but you can change the Home Directory references stored in it to point to any other drives nearby. This changes where those files are stored.
Keep in mind that you are specifying EXACTLY where those Home Directories will be stored, and if the names of anything have changed, those Links do not point to the right places any more. (Example: you changed the Home Directory of user Joe to be on the drive named "Mavrix". Later, you renamed that drive to "Yo", without changing the pointers in User&Groups. Joe can enter his password, and it will be accepted, because the Accounts Directory that holds his password is on the Boot Drive. But Joe's Home Directory files will not be found, and he will get an error message about his Home Directory cannot be located.
If you use a different Boot Drive, it also contains a Data Structure that has Usernames and passwords, and they may not be the same as the one on any other drive.

Cisco Jabber for Windows Voicemail issue

At this I'm in processing of implementation Cisco Jabber UC solution for big Company.
I use CUCM 9.1.2, Cisco IM and Presence 9.1.2, CUC 9.1.2, Cisco Jabber for Windows 9.6.1.
I have issue in Cisco Jabber with VoiceMail Integration - when I leave voice message for any user,
than this message is arrived only him Cisco IP Phone, but not in him Cisco Jabber.
From Cisco Jabber Connectivity status in help menu I see that VoiceMail service is successfully connected
and I see VoiceMail button in Cisco Jabber.
How can I resolve this issue?

Have you configured the UC Service profile on CUCM with both Voicemail server and mailbox servers?

Jabber for Windows- VM issue

I had configured Jabber for windows in windows 7, the problem is after logging into jabber client iam not able to get the "phone accounts" under options.
Iam able to call , and recieve calls but no voice mail. In the Jabber cleint diagnostic it shows username and password is wrong for voice mail.
If i have 'phone acounts' option in jabber client i could set username and password for voice mail. Iam able to telnet the unity server.
Any clue?
We have IM&Presence 9.0, CUCM 9.0
Jabber - 9.2
Tnx
Bobby

HI,
As Aron states - you can configure your client to use same login and password ID as other UC services. This will then mask the fields you see in your jabber client. This is great when you don't want your users to have to populate the fields. The less they have to do the better.
Check your Unity Connection system - is it AXL ot AD or neither ?
If you can, your better to use only one username / password across your UC environment. For now just check your setting for the VM service is not set .

Adobe Reader for iPad Accessiblity issues

When using the Adobe Reader for iPad app with the IOS reader, images that have alt text attached do not get read. How can I fix this in the PDF or the accessibility features so the images are read?

Adobe Reader for iOS has limited accessibility right now, reading alt text for images is one of the things which is still in our to-do's.
You might see this as a part of our future updates, but we can't commit when it will reach to you.

Cisco Jabber for iPad - custom URL?

The Cisco Jabber client for iOS is great, and we'd love to integrate it with one of our iPad applications. All iOS applications have an optional "custom URL" they can assign to themselves that enables them to be invoked by another application. They may also optionally include paramters (for example, a phone number). Does a custom URL exist for the jabber iOS client, and if so, is it possible to send it a parameter for a phone number so that it dials as soon as it starts up? Thanks.

I don't get presence either, and would like to know if there is an answer for it.
If I look up my user in the provisioning directory, it does show that my iPad is provisioned and active for my account.
I can't say anything toward the lisence count, it's hard to say with all the accounts we have active sometimes.
Our infrastructure is slightly different in that we are running TMS 13.2.1 and using TMS Agent Legacy.

Jabber for windows login issue

Issue is when the users launch the Jabber client it opens up with the Default page for entering the Server Details as if it was 1st time login. This is happenng evrytime for every user.
Please Help !

The details are stored in C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Cisco\Unified Communications. The user needs to have write access to that folder and the contents need to persist between logins. If it's a VDI session (or similar) that erases all changes at logoff, you'll have this problem.
Please remember to rate helpful responses and identify helpful or correct answers.
