Problems with Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Conferencing Server Connections

The web server must be able to connect to itself using the hostname you configured on the Web Server administrative page. This is also the hostname end-users use to connect to this web server.

Connection problems are most likely because of firewall-related configurations. Following are steps to troubleshoot and correct the problem.

Resolving HTTP Connection Problems

The following example assumes the web server’s hostname as hostname.domain.com.

Procedure

Step 1 From the web server, use a web browser to connect to http://hostname.domain.com.

Step 2 If you receive an error message, add the following line to the C:\WINNT\System32\drivers\etc\hosts file:

127.0.0.1 hostname.domain.com

Remember to replace your web server’s actual FQDN for hostname.domain.com.

Step 3 Try to connect to http://hostname.domain.com again.

Resolving HTTPS Connection Problems

Complete the following steps if the web server only allows HTTPS traffic. The following example assumes the web server’s hostname as hostname.domain.com.

Procedure

Step 1 From the web server, use a web browser to connect to https://hostname.domain.com.

Step 2 If any security warning dialog boxes appear, configure SSL to not show these dialog boxes. For detailed information, see Microsoft Knowledge Base Articles 813618 and 257873 on the Microsoft website.
