I installed Jami yesterday, tested it with friends, and was VERY HAPPY to find something to replace skype for our team calls. I use skype for phone calls/team calls all day long. I saw that Jami would interface with VOIP.MS so I bought time on voip.ms, and started the configuration in Jami so could call out and it died. Now I can’t start Jami. I uninstalled it, installed the beta version, uninstalled that, deleted what I could find of registry entries, restarted the computer, uninstalled and re-installed, shut off the firewall(windows 10), did a windows update, etc. NOTHING, I can’t even get Jami to start.
Are there logs?
If there is an error shown in the logs, can you please create an issue on GitLab?
Thank you
I don’t know where there error logs are. Can someone point me in the right direction?
In order to get the logs, you can start jami with the -d
option. The documentation is here:
Here is an outline of the procedure:
First, you need to start a terminal or command prompt (cmd.exe on Windows), then you go to the Jami install directory, generally C:\Program Files\Savoir-Faire Linux\Jami
In that case, you need to type the following command in your terminal :
cd C:\Program Files\Savoir-Faire Linux\Jami
Then, you type Jami.exe -d -f %localappdata%\jami\jami.log
on the command prompt and you will get all the logs in colors (quite overwhelming…) displayed in the terminal.
With the previous syntax, the complete logs will also be written in the jami.log file. To get that file, you simply need to type %localappdata%\jami\jami.log
in your Windows file browser.
When I messed
with Jami to add a voip.ms account, I had a similar problem where the program would fail to initialize properly. What I did is install an older version of Jami (e.g. 2024-12-19 here Index of /windows/archive), reinitialized the settings (in my case I had wrongly enabled SDES and TLS encyption in the Advanced settings, so I disabled these options). Eventually, I was able to upgrade to the latest Jami version again.
Awesome, thank you. Here’s my log with personal and account information redacted
