No response in 2 weeks????? GE already knows workarounds, at least some of them do. Here is what I got from a support rep last week. Clearing the cookies works for me.
Please try the following optimization steps. CPS browser crashes are generally due to outdated cache, cookies or plugin related issues. These simple steps will generally resolve all CPS browser related issues. The messaging tab is simply a browser windows embedded in Centricity and these steps generally fix these types of issues. Please note there is no native support for IE 11. However these steps will generally resolve even IE 11 related issues. Please note any effort to assist in making IE 11 work with Centricity is best effort at this time.
Setting Up Secure Messaging to Work with IE9/10/11
Check this first. There may be nothing to do. Simply do a click through, if there is missing setting, you will be prompted:
In Centricity: Chart > preferences > System > internet sites > (verify messaging service) > Close > log out of Centricity and close all open browser sessions.
Open IE:
Internet Options
- Internet Options > Advanced > Reset > Apply > Ok
- Internet Options > General > Browsing History > Settings > View Objects > Delete MBCInstaller90.dll
- Internet Options > General > Browsing History > Settings > Caches and Databases > Uncheck Allow Caches and Databases (IE 11 Setting)
- Internet Options > General > Browsing History > Delete Cookies & Website Data > Delete (If “Preserve Favorites Website Data” is present uncheck.
- Internet Options > General > Browsing History > Settings > Every time I visit the webpage > Ok (may be greyed out if so skip)
- Internet Options > Security > Trusted Sites > sites > Add Secure Messaging URL subdomain > Close (optional – but recommended)
- Internet Options > Security > Trusted Sites > Custom Level > under active X enable Allow Scriptlets > OK (optional)
Tools (optional)
- If menu bar is not present: Right Click > Tools (gear in upper right hand corner of browser) > check Menu bar (reverse this step to remove)
- From Menu Bar > Tools > Turn Off Smart Screen Filter
- From Menu Bar > Tools > Turn off Pop-up Blocker
- If desired remove menu bar
Close Internet Explorer then launch Centricity and open Messaging
Another Potential Option where messaging chronically fails (Requires IT/IS Assistance)
As mentioned there is no native support for IE 11 at this time and any solutions provided are best effort and not guaranteed. It appears that chronic issues may be due to browser cookie conflicts within IE. A batch file on the desktop that launches CPS and clears the cookies might be a viable option in these situations. Your IT/IS team should test before implementing.
e.g.
del /f /q "%userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Cookies\*.txt" start "" [The URL within the CPS shortcut goes here without the brackets]
if the IE is not the default browser replace "" with the information found in the native IE Shortcut
e.g. "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"
