Cisco Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Web Conferencing

 

 

You now have the following choices:   

•  If you are using the MSDE 2000 (also known as “Microsoft SQL Server Desktop Engine”) 

bundled with the MeetingPlace Web, you must still use the ‘sa’ username but may specify your 
own password. 

•  If you are directing the MeetingPlace Web installation to use a full SQL Server installed on a 

local or remote PC, you can change both the username and password. 

Note: If you are using a username other than ‘sa’, you must verify that profile (username/password) exists 
before installing MeetingPlace Web. Please contact your MeetingPlace support representative for the 
specific SQL Server profile attribute requirements, such as access types and rights. 

MeetingPlace Web comes bundled with a utility called the Browser Test, previously called the Network 
Inspector. The Browser Test link is automatically enabled once MeetingPlace Web is installed. This utility 
performs a series of checks that verify whether an end user will be able to join a web conference.  

To run the Browser Test, users simply click a link on the MeetingPlace Web home page. The Browser Test 
checks that a user has a supported Web browser version, Java version, and operating system, and that Java 
is enabled on their web browser and is able to pass through their network, and that they can establish a 
solid connection to the web conference. 

If a user does not successfully pass these tests, a Test Completed page displays to indicate what the user 
needs to do in order to participate in a web conference (upgrade their Web browser, etc). 

Previously, MeetingPlace Web was bundled with the MSDE (Microsoft Data Engine) components from 
the Microsoft SQL Server 7. Starting with this release, MeetingPlace Web is bundled with the MSDE 
components from the Microsoft SQL Server 2000 also referred to as the Microsoft SQL Server Desktop 
Engine. 
When installing MeetingPlace Web, if you have not already installed the full version of Microsoft SQL 
Server (SQL Server 7 or SQL Server 2000), then the installation program will automatically install the 
MSDE (Microsoft Data Engine). 

MeetingPlace Web 3.0 (version 4.2.7) software must now be installed on a Windows 2000 server. 
 
When installing the MeetingPlace Web gateway on a Windows 2000 server, you will need Administrator 
privileges on the Windows 2000 server.
