I received the same answer from tac as others.  They have a but ID, but the 
workaround to disable telemetry is incorrect as we have had this disabled in 
the xml for a couple of years now.  We will be upgrading with the install 
switch to disable webex going forward.  Hopefully this puts a stop to this cert 
warning.

From support:
One of the workarounds that I mentioned was to disable the Webex service, do 
you think you can try that?

Uninstall Jabber, clear the cache and install it with the following command:
msiexec.exe CiscoJabberSetup.msi CLEAR=1 EXCLUDED_SERVICES=Webex

We did not start to see the cert warnings until 11/15/21.  Not sure if that 
helps correlate with a certificate expiring, etc.

They better come up with a better workaround to re-installing all our clients.

If Jabber has a built in procedure, then they really need to make sure it works.

Why are we all of a sudden seeing these cert issues?

This downloading of fixes really needs to be curbed.

Hi there

We experienced this issue with our on-prem Jabber updates,

Fix we applied was as follows:


  1.  Do a “clean install” of Jabber (must delete cache files and uninstall old 
version)
  2.  Wen installing new version,  use this installation file with the switch 
at the end  as below


msiexec.exe /i CiscoJabberSetup.msi CLEAR=1 EXCLUDED_SERVICES=WEBEX 
UPN_DISCOVERY_ENABLED=false

Our desktop team added a script to clear the cache folders on desktops with 
previous installations as follows:

        ## Deleting all “.\Cisco” folders found on local profiles
        Write-Log "-----> Deleting all `“.\Cisco`” folders found on local 
profiles"
        $users = Get-ChildItem -Path "C:\Users"
        $users | ForEach-Object {
            Remove-Folder -Path "C:\Users\$($_.Name)\AppData\Local\Cisco"
            Remove-Folder -Path "C:\Users\$($_.Name)\AppData\Roaming\Cisco"


  1.  In the service profile for Jabber, add the 
“ServiceDiscoveryExcludedServices --> WEBEX”

This will ensure once Jabber is installed and configured, it will no longer try 
to connect to WEBEX each time the user logins.


HTH

I will likely be opening a case for this. We had a few. Our workstations are 
not configured to not get root very updates I’ve been told.

We’ve only had a few cases.

Not sure this hasn’t made it to an advisory or bug or something.

Did anyone come up with a solution to this, other than to tell the users to 
Accept the Cert?

We are completely on prem with no webex services.  Clients are v 12.9.6.  I was 
able to reproduce the issue once using a test user account, but have not been 
able to reproduce since, even after a Jabber reset.  Most of my team is running 
Jabber v 14.x and we have not seen the cert warning.

Does a user declining the cert add it to the Untrusted Certificates store in 
Windows?  Maybe that takes priority over a cert in the trusted store?

I have done the following, but we still have sporadic reports of the 
certificate warning from Jabber:


  1.  Ensured the new IdenTrust Commercial Root CA 1 was in CUCM and services 
restarted on CUCM and IM&P.
  2.  Added the HydrantID Server CA O1 to the computers trusted store via GPO.

Thanks.

Darn it. We've started seeing the alerts for some reason.

Can we just tell people to accept? Argh.

(a) do this
(b) don't do this

Is my favourite part!

I remember when I first started, I had opened a case, then another, and got two 
very conflicting opinions from the TAC

(a) TAC suggests using the T train for voice gateways
(b) The TAC suggests staying away from T train for voice gateways

Or something like that.

When you're first starting out and have a crush on Cisco, it's very had to work 
through that.

Yeah, I had a suspicion at one point that this might be to do with the 
telemetry (which we’re sending), but the only reference I can find to the 
servers used for this is in the "Feature Configuration for Cisco Jabber 12.8” 
doc where it states that clients connect to "metrics-a.wbx2.com” (also 
mentioning that you must install a GoDaddy root cert).

We’ve been sending telemetry for some time and have not had this problem 
before, and the cert the client is erroring on is idbroker.webex.com (with the 
IdenTrust root).

Fwiw, metrics-a.wbx2.com is a cname for ha-a-main.wbx2.com, which in turn is a 
cname for achm-main-ha-a-nlb-1d0e22049c746ef1.elb.us-east-2.amazonaws.com

metrics-a.wbx2.com *does* have a GoDaddy root cert, and a wildcard server cert.

What a mess!

That bug also says:

"b) Disable the telemetry call to Webex in the jabber-config xml”

…but then goes on to say:

"This error/popup is not related to Telemetry. Even if you disable Telemetry on 
Jabber certificate pop up will continue to show.”

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
