BBBerror

for BigBlueButton

Code 1102

Category: Screen share

Message shown in BigBlueButton

Code {errorCode}. Could not share the screen.

What it means

Screen sharing could not open its signalling WebSocket to the media server.

Likely causes

  • Firewall/proxy blocking WebSockets
  • bbb-webrtc-sfu or nginx down

What to do

First, check who is affected.

  1. Only one or a few users: most likely a problem on the user's side, so follow the Student and Teacher steps.
  2. Everyone in one room: check that room/meeting (settings, meeting ended or recreated, room limits).
  3. Everyone in every room: most likely a server problem, so go to the Admin/server steps.

Students

Try another network (for example a mobile hotspot) to check whether your current network blocks the connection.

Teachers

Do not keep retrying: the client treats this as a fatal error that usually means a server configuration problem, so contact your admin.

Server admins

Check that nginx runs and its config is valid (sudo nginx -t, /var/log/nginx/error.log). Run sudo bbb-conf --check and fix the problems it reports. Run sudo bbb-conf --clean, then sudo bbb-conf --watch while reproducing the error to see log errors live.
