Problem creating a Live Meeting

Question
-
I have a problem creating a Live Meeting.
When I logon to https://<FQDN>/conf/int/login.aspx I'm validated OK, but then I resive the following error:
Server Error
A server error has occurred. Please contact the administrator.
Error Source: System.DirectoryServices
Error Type: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException
Error Message: An operations error occurred.
Error Code: -2147016672When I try to schedule a live meeting from outlook, I get the following error:
Error- Microsoft Live Meeting.
You do not have the privilege to schedule live meetings; please contact your live meeting administrator.
The Live Meeting logon is successfully verified in Outlook and in the live meeting client, under user accounts.
I can create and join conferences made from outlook, the problem is only related to Live Meetings.
Also it is not possible to start a live meeting from the communicator client. The menu point is there, but nothing happens when you click it, or I have one of the two menupoints that is supposed exists according to the communicator_2007_getting_started_guide picture on page 40. I only have the one saying: ”Meet now with Microsoft Office Live Meeting (Server)” Missing the one saying: “Meet now with Microsoft Office Live Meeting (Service)”
Kind regards.
Kenneth

Hi
I had to configure and enable web conferencing. (It was all in the manual *shrug*)
According to OCS_EnterpriseEditionDeployment.doc page 35 I hadn’t enabled web conferencing.
Doing this, then rebooted the server, then opened the LM client user accounts and tested the connection again, then the meet now button paired J and I’m now able to create Live Meetings using the communicator client.
I still get the -2147016672 error when logging on to the website: https://<FQDN>/conf/int/login.aspx
Kind regards
Kenneth
Here is the description from the OCS_EnterpriseEditionDeployment.doc document:
To configure A/V and Web conferencing
1. Click Start, click Control Panel, click Administrative Tools, and then click Office Communications Server 2007.
2. Right-click the Forest node, click Properties, and then click Global Properties.
3. Click Meetings, and then do one of the following:
· To allow the selected users to organize meetings that include anonymous participants, click Anonymous participants, and then click Allow users to invite anonymous participants.
· To prevent the selected users from organizing meetings that include anonymous participants, click Anonymous participants, and then click Disallow users from inviting anonymous participants.
· To allow only some users to organize meetings that include anonymous participants, click Anonymous participants, and then click Enforce per user. Ensure that you follow the procedures in the “Configure Users” section of this document to enable or disable this feature for individual users.
Important
By default, all users are allowed to organize meetings that include anonymous participants.
4. In the Policy Definition list, click the name of a policy, and then click Edit.
5. In the Edit Policy dialog box, select the Enable Web conferencing check box, and then change any or all of the settings shown in the table above, and then click OK.
6. Click Apply.
7. After you finish editing the features enabled by each policy, decide which policy to apply to meetings organized by users. Do one of the following:
· To apply the same policy to all users, click Global policy, and then click the name of the policy that defines the features you want to enable for all users.
· To apply different policies to different users, click Global policy, and then click Use per user policy. Ensure that you follow the procedures in the “Configure Users” section of this document to configure the meeting policy for individual users.
8. When you are finished, click OK.
For more information about administering meeting features, refer to Microsoft Office Communications Server Beta 3 Administrator Guide.
If you expect heavy audio/video traffic in your environment, you can optimize your network interface card settings to accommodate this volume. See Appendix F in this document for more information

I have the same problem but only for one of my users. I have 50 users on my server, and for the only one the connection between Live Meeting and Communicator is missing: the button " Share information using live meeting " is not available.
For 49 other users, there is no problem.
Have you already seen this kind of problem?Friday, February 22, 2008 2:43 PM
