I replaced our 2 receptionists PCs with new ones and installed SoftConsole and it just disappears after logging in. I tried the -debug command and the log is not helpful at all. I excluded the Avaya directory from our AV SW and excluded softconsole.exe from DEP.

Any troubleshooting advice would be very appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike
 
Probably because it is not installed with administrator rights !

Is there another directory that is being used by Avaya that I can exclude from AV?

Thanks,
Mike
 
Turn the AV off and try again
If that works then we go on !

I am on a domain and not a domain admin and I don't get the "for all Users" info.
Maybe I try it at home tonight and see if that makes a difference.

Figured it out. It was the latest version of the Novell Client. Went back one version and it doesn't close unexpectedly any more. It had nothing to do with:

Symantec Endpoint Protection
DEP
Installation method (shortcut to SoftConsole.exe works fine for all users)
Outlook 2007
Windows XP 32 SP3

Thanks for everyone's help,
Mike
 
Hence the "michaeleichacker, there is not a great deal we can help with here, it's an issue with the PC's you are using" statement, 9 times out of 10 it is something you think is completely unrelated and we would have no idea unless you listed every instance of software on the PC :)

That is exactly why I posted what it was and wasn't, hoping it will help someone else some day.

That wasn't a dig, it was just to defend my previous statement and to highlite the variety of problems you will get with the software add-ons for the Ip office, and how no matter what you try it usually something you would never think off and end up stumbling upon. It's good that you posted the solution as many can't be bothered, it will go into my mental repository of Soft Console issues :)

a good divorce is something to cherish, you never know how bad you really are until the lawyer of your wife tells you. I am on marriage 2 and she is so patient she even accepts me being on Tek-Tips so much :)
