for BigBlueButton

Code 2202

Category: Media server

Message shown in BigBlueButton

Client generated an invalid media request (SDP error 2202)

What it means

The media server could not parse the media request (SDP) the browser sent.

Likely causes

  • Unsupported or old browser

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

Update your browser to a supported version: Chrome 87+, Firefox 80+, Edge 85+ or Safari 14+. Try again with a different browser or device.

Teachers

Share the list of supported browsers (Chrome 87+, Firefox 80+, Edge 85+, Safari 14+) in your invitation. If it repeats, share from another browser or computer.

Server admins

Run sudo bbb-conf --clean, then sudo bbb-conf --watch while reproducing the error to see log errors live. Collect logs with sudo bbb-conf --zip and ask on the bigbluebutton-setup group if the cause is unclear.
