Problem report

Problem reports include logs from the Cisco Virtualization Experience Client, hosted virtual desktop, and any detailed information that you enter. Your system administrator can use this information to help troubleshoot the issue.

If you encounter a problem with Cisco Jabber, you can create a problem report. If Cisco Jabber encounters a problem and needs to close, the Jabber Client Error dialog starts automatically, so that you can create a problem report. You can also generate a problem report from the Windows Start menu, if Cisco Jabber is not running.


Note


Include a memory dump if Cisco Jabber crashes, or if your system administrator asks you to do so.

        Lost Call Control After Network Failure

        Problem    You see a prompt to reconnect to your hosted virtual desktop (HVD). After you reconnect, Cisco Jabber cannot control calls and your phone does not show as registered on the Logitech UC Keyboard.
        Possible Cause    This problem can occur if the Cisco Virtualization Experience Client loses network connectivity.
        Solution    Exit Cisco Jabber and disconnect from your HVD. Log back in to your HVD and sign back in to Cisco Jabber to restore call control.

        Lost Call After HVD Disconnection

        Problem    You receive a prompt to log back in to your hosted virtual desktop (HVD) during an active call, and the call drops. The other party to the call will have no indication that the call has ended, except the line will be silent.
        Possible Cause    The connection between your Cisco Virtualization Experience Client and your HVD may have dropped. This causes a temporary loss of registration and call control.
        Solution    After you log back in to your HVD, you can call the other party back. If the other party is not available, you can send an instant message (IM).
