IBM Lotus Sametime 7.5 Release Notes Installation, migration, upgrade, and configuration
Note The Community Services multiplexer on a Sametime 7.5 server also cannot listen for HTTPS
connections to the Sametime Meeting Services or Community Services on ports 443 or 563 and forward
these connections to the Community Services and Meeting Services. HTTPS-tunneling to the Sametime
Meeting Services is not supported. Sametime Meeting Room clients cannot connect to the Sametime
Meeting Services through an HTTPS proxy server.
Windows DEP process causes launch error
If Windows server administrators are running the Data Execution Prevention (DEP) process on their
Windows server, the server will view the Sametime launch task StLaunch as a potentially malicious
thread, and halt the process. The error message received is:
To Help protect your computer, Windows has closed this program:Name:
StLaunchPublisher:
Workaround
Turn off the DEP process on Windows servers before launching the
StLaunch
task.
Adjusting the logging level in sametime .properties
For the Sametime client, the properties relevant to logging into

set to INFO.
## Logging properties
.level=INFO
logger.filename=sametime.log
logger.includeClassInfo=true
logger.toConsole=true
logger.level=ALL
logger.limit=20000000
logger.count=4

should be changed to trigger more verbose logging.
The options from most verbose to least verbose are as follows:

If experiencing a bug, set
.level

FINE
