This may be an erroneous message.
If the room has not been removed by an administrator, open the Jabber chatroom tab and choose 'all rooms' instead of 'my rooms'.
Refresh the list there and check whether the room is available.
If it is, you can simply rejoin the room or contact a room administrator.  

If you are unable to log in your Jabber-Client or the Phone-Services are not registering, try the following procedures:

• Restart Jabber. Click on the small cogwheel symbol → Exit. Start Cisco Jabber again.
• Sign out. Click on the small cogwheel symbol → Sign Out. Click again on Sign In and complete the RWTH-SingleSignOn process.
• Reset Jabber. Click on the small cogwheel symbol → Sign Out. Click on Reset Jabber. Type in your RWTH-Account-name followed by @rwth-aachen.de ein (e.g. ab123456@rwth-aachen.de)

If you are still unable to login, please try to delete the Jabber-configuration files:

1. Close the Jabber client. Check that the Icon in the task bar is gone, as Jabber may still be running in the background.
2. Reset the Jabber client by removing the folders for usage data:
   1. Press <WIN>-R to start a program
   2. enter 'cmd' and confirm you wish to open the command prompt.
   3. execute the following commands:
      1. del /S /Q "%localappdata%\Cisco\Unified Communications"
      2. del /S /Q "%appdata%\Cisco\Unified Communications"
   4. restart Jabber and sign in again.

Should you be experiencing this, first close the Jabber client. Note that closing the window does not shut down Jabber completely, as it will keep running in the background, taking up fewer resources.

You can pull up the Jabber window again at any time by pressing the icon "" in the system tray.

1. Open the Cisco Jabber App.
2. Click on the gear symbol at the top right.
3. Select <View>.
4. Click on <Show docked window>to remove the tick next to the setting.

Users who have logged off from all devices are unreachable if they have not otherwise informed the telephone system where the call is to be routed.
The way to do this is to set call forwarding.
Users can configure under which conditions calls should be diverted: This can also be initiated precisely for the case that one is no longer logged on to any device

Sie können versuchen an Hand der folgenden Anleitung einen Reset des Telefons durchzuführen

Schalten Sie zunächst das Telefon aus und entfernen Sie die Stromversorgung.
Im Anschluss können Sie die Stromversorgung wieder herstellen. Um den Reset durchzuführen müssen sie während das Telefon hochfährt die #-Taste gedrückt halten.
Wenn Sie dies erfolgreich getan haben, leuchtet die Headset Lampe (unten rechts) grün. 
Jetzt tippen Sie von oben nach unten das gesamte Tastenfeld ein, also in der Reihenfolge 1 -> 2 -> 3 -> 4 -> ... -> 9 -> * -> 0 -> #.
Sollte die Eingabe korrekt erfolgt sein, so leuchtet die Stumm-schalten-Taste (unten rechts) rot auf und der Reset wird durchgeführt. Dies kann einige Minuten in Anspruch nehmen.

Sollte im Anschluss der Fehler immer noch bestehen, öffnen Sie bitte ein Ticket wie gewohnt.
