    Unable to Start or Join a Meeting, The Meeting Client Hangs at 10%, 86% or 99%
    list-menuFeedback?

    The join process may hang if the meeting installer is not able to run properly. 

    Potential Causes:

    • SSL inspection may be enabled on your proxy or firewall settings
    • Anti-virus programs may be blocking the installation
    • ICAP Scanning is enabled


    To fix the issue, try the following:

    Create an exception rule for *.webex.com and atmgr.exe

    For help with network configuration for Webex, see:  WBX264 - How Do I Allow Webex Meetings Traffic on My Network?

    Disable ICAP scanning and SSL Inspection

    Webex meetings do not load when ICAP and SSL interception are enabled on a ProxySG appliance. The meeting client connection can not be intercepted due to the streaming nature of service.

    Disable ICAP scanning for the Webex domain name and add the following to a CPL layer in your VPM or in your Local Policy:

    <cache>
    url.domain=//Webex.com/ response.icap_service(no)

    To disable ICAP and SSL interception on a ProxySG appliance, see review this Symantec article.
