Mobile Concierge Service Setup Guide

Hi All,
     as with my previous is am starting this thread as a help in configuring the Mobile Concierge Service.
As the solution is new the documentation is a little light in detail so this is obviously a good place to document in more detail the setup and configuration.
What is neede for the Mobile Concierge Service:
Cisco Wireless LAN Controller:software version 7.2 or later
Cisco Prime Infrastructure: software version 1.3 or later
Cisco MSE (virtual or physical appliance): Cisco MSE software version 7.4 or later
Documents i have used:
Release Notes for Cisco Prime Infrastructure, Release 1.3.0.20
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/prime/infrastructure/1.3/release/notes/cpi_rn_13.html

Mobile Concierge - Venue Wizard
So the first thing that the Concierge service gets you to create is a venue.  You do this by using the wizard.
Cisco's instructions are here:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/mse/3350/7.4/CAS_Configuration/Guide/7_4_MSE_CAS_chapter_0111.html#task_9F749496598541169607E266505012F4
Venue Name
So this will be the venue/location what you want this service to run at.  For example if this is a Shopping Centre/Mall, Sports venue then you would give it the name of your Venue. e.g Dolphin Shopping Mall or BlackCats Stadium (made up names :-) ) 
As i am seting up this in our offices for testing i have given it the name of our company.
Floor outdoor/Association
Area Type - Next you choose area type either a floor area or outdoor.  I have chosen floor area as i am looking to use this service internally.
Campus - Select that campus that you created in PI and want this service to work with.
Building - Select the building that you created in PI and you want this service to work with.
Floor - Select the Floor that you created in PI and you want this service to work with.
Coverage area - Select the Coverage area that you created in PI and you want this service to work with.
Selected Map - Once you have selected the coverage area above the map URL should be displayed here.
Click Next takes you to the next section.
Audio
Here you can select the audio that you wish touse for notifications and you can add up to three.
The manual does not explain what format these need to be in so PLEASE CAN SOMEONE ANSWER THIS PELASE
Am guessing that this is the audio that is played on the mobile device for a notification but this needs clarification.
Icons
Again the manaual does not explain the use of icons, PLEASE CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN THE USE OF ICONS, WHAT FORMAT,SIZE ETC TO USE.
Am guessing that it is the icon that is displayed on the mobile device as part of MSAP (Mobile Services Advertismanet Protocol) but i am just guessing.
Venue APPs
Again the manual does not explain how this is actually implemented.  I expect that this is how you specify through MSAP the APP's that are available at your location.
You enter the name of your app and i guess this is the actual name that appears on the mobile device.
You have the following options:
Web APP
Windows Phone OS
Android
BBOS
IOS
Symbian
WebOS
Windows Mobile
Desktop OS
Other
Am guessing that if you enter a URL in the first field (THAT HAS NO LABLE!!!) and select Web APP, that it will launch this URL in a browser on the mobile device.
Or if you have an APP that is installed on the mobile device you can launch it by specifing the APP name in a special format???
Again though i am just guessing so PLEASE CAN SOMEONE CLARIFY THIS PLEASE
Additonal Information
I think the next information is for Meriden who are Cisco's partner for mobile APP development.
Enter the location detail in the Location Detail text box. This provides details such as store address, zip code, or street address of the venue.
Enter the GPS latitude and longitude of the venue in the Latitude and Longitude text box. This helps the applications to identify the venue accurately.
Enter any other additional information that the venue would like to provide to the mobile application in the Additional Information text box.
Once you click save the information is applied in MSE.
So that is the first step in setting up the Mobile Concierge Service.  What i would also like to know is that when you create a venue you ahve to specify a floor plan.  So does this mean that if you have multiple floors that you have to create multiple venues?  Or does it only work for one floor at the moment?
So over to the experts, can you ANSWER THE MAIN POINTS THAT ARE IN CAPITAL LETTERS ABOVE. I have put them in capital so that they stand out from all of the text.
Thanks

  • Apple Mobile Device Service installation rolls back

    Hey there,
    I've been having problems installing iTunes 9 or even 8 on my computer. While running the iTunes setup, part of the installation rolls back and when I launch iTunes after that, I get the message saying that
    "This iPod cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install iTunes again."
    However, the installation doesn't work no matter how many times i reinstall it. I've fully uninstalled everything related to apple and used the microsoft's utility to check if they were properly uninstalled before reinstalling itunes, but I still got the same message.
    I found out that Apple Mobile Device Service was not installed and that was the problem. When i extracted AppleMobileDeviceService.msi from the iTunes installer and ran it, it rolled back too. So I used the /l*v command to create an installation log and this is the error.
    DIFXAPP: INFO: opening HKEY_USERS 'S-1-5-21-4128058654-1677487342-2165978628-1007\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\DIFxApp\Components\{9AA3828A-F852-11DB-8E29-6C6B55D89593}' (User's SID: 'S-1-5-21-4128058654-1677487342-2165978628-1007') ...

    I have recently been fighting my system to get itunes to recognise my iphone and i ran into a similar problem.
    I couldnt uninstall the old version of apple mobile device support, and installing the new itunes over the top did not seem to help either.
    But i found a work around.
    Try opening the itunes.exe install package with winrar. (www.winrar.com, its a free program) and then extracting only the applemobiledevicesupport.exe file.
    Reboot your system, run that file and then reboot again.
    It should work.
    If it doesnt, then good luck to you :P

  • Apple Mobile Device Service does not install

    Hello @all,
    I've got a big problem.
    I've installed the 8.1 Update of Itunes and Apple Mobile Device Service would not be installed. After registering modules the setup reverses all actions.
    Now I can start Itunes but my IPhone can't sync. Theres a German Message like: "This IPhone can not be used because it needs software wich is not installed. Pleas start the ITunes Setup to uninstall Itunes and reinstall the ITunes 64-Bit Version."
    I've uninstalled all Apple components on the PC, cleaned up the registry... but it doesn't work. An older version of Itunes doesn't work too. What can I do? Please help me.
    My system is Windows Vista Ultimate 64-Bit

    Hello DM06851,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with installing the latest iTunes update.  I recommend following the steps below:
    Resolution
    Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
    Check for .dll files
    Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes and C:\Program Files\iTunes and look for .dll files.
    If you find QTMovie.DLL, or any other .dll files, move them to the desktop.
    Reboot your computer.
    Note: Depending on your operating system, you may only have one of the listed paths.
    Uninstall and reinstall iTunes
    Uninstall iTunes and all of its related components.
    Reboot your computer. If you can't uninstall a piece of Apple software, try using the Microsoft Program Install and Uninstall Utility.
    Re-download and reinstall iTunes 11.1.4.
    I understand that you have already uninstalled iTunes, but when you get to this step, it is important to uninstall iTunes and the related components in the order listed in the link for that step. 
    You can find the full article here:
    iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
    I recommend the following article if you continue to receive an error:

    After months finally let itunes auto update its self. this didn't work due to the next error:

    Than i deleted all appele software from my windows 7 desktop and download the latest version form the appel site.

    Now a message appears reading: Itunes was not installed correclty. Please reinstall. Apple error 7 and windows error 193

  • Error when installing Oracle Lite for Mobile Field Service Laptop

    Hi,
    I am facing a strange problem when installing Mobile Field Service Laptop agent "Oracle Lite" on my laptop.
    When I run the setup, it asks me username and password, after entering the information, when I proceed, I see setup window which displays below messages
    "Authenticating with server... "
    Please wait. This may take several minutes ...
    Then it hangs for several minutes, approx 5 to 10 mins, and then gives message
    "Could not connect to server: HTTP/1.0 502 Bad Gateway"
    I am not able to proceed with setup.
    But none of my other colleagues are facing this issue, even though the network, proxy settings and java version are same.
    Any idea about this error?

    Help! Following a standard upgrade I got the error message "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows Error 193).
    I am running Windows 7 and installing again brings the message "Apple Mobile Device Service failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services"
    I have uninstalled everything Apple, deleted all related folders and run as administrator numerous times with no luck.
    I had hoped that iTunes 12.1.2 would resolve the issue, unfortunately it failed to do so leaving me iTunes free which is driving me mad!
    Can anyone advise what else I can do to resolve the error and bring back iTunes?

  • Mail service setup basics

    Dude!,
    I have been searching and digging for days trying to understand this setup.
    I purchased a mac mini with server software and trying to get mail services to work.
    It should not be this hard! I have set up my dns for my local domain and doubled checked via terminal that my ip matches the name. I have mutiple doamins I would like to revcieve mail from on this server. All my users are the same on each domain. like, [email protected] and [email protected], ect.
    In the general tab of mail services I set the following
    domain name : mydomain.com
    host name : mail.mydomain.com
    in the advanced tab I checked include server daomain as local alias and added my other domain names like
    myother.com
    myother2.com
    I then went to my mail client that I added the local email info,,
    What should I use for the incoming mail?
    Outgoing mail?
    I have looked at mail services user guide, searched through tons of threads, googled everthing from smtp, dns, mail server setup, ect.
    I am able however to manually set up a mail client and all works but that kinda defeats my reasoning of this server.
    Is there a basic guide I can get that maybe clairifies the basic set issues?
    I am sure I am not the only person having these issues?
    Thanks

    It should be this hard. It's actually quite simple once you take the time to ensure you have a fundamental understanding of numerous key concepts. Marketing for 10.6 server aside (a separate & interesting conversation), it's no more Apple's role to educate any would-be server administrator of these fundamentals than it is for Microsoft to do same with their product manuals, or for that matter Sun (Solaris) or RedHat...
