RTC_E_PROFILE_INVALID_SESSION
Operational meaning: RTC_E_PROFILE_INVALID_SESSION
This result marks a specific boundary in creating or enabling an XML profile that defines user identity, servers, transports, authentication, and supported session types: the profile contains an invalid session value or combination; treating it as a generic RTC failure loses the state needed to choose a safe next action.
For correlation, retain 0x80EE003B in the RTC interface facility 0xEE together with this result; for this HRESULT, generic HRESULT text can otherwise hide the protocol family and the exact RTC branch.
The quickest way to localize this result is to record the exact value, XML element, allowed enumeration, and related transport/role/session fields; the important the boundary is that the field is present, so adding another copy will not fix semantic validation.
Signals worth preserving
Correlate this result at source: the method or callback, the owning object generation, and the active protocol transition; for this HRESULT, this keeps later retries from obscuring causality.
- Code-specific proof for this HRESULT: record the exact value,
XMLelement, allowed enumeration, and related transport/role/session fields. - Correlation key for this HRESULT: authentication method.
- Protocol or object snapshot for this HRESULT: session type and party attributes.
- Last completed transition for this HRESULT: redacted profile
XMLpath/version. - Expected output for this HRESULT: user URI and profile key hash.
For privacy-safe analysis of it, preserve protocol structure rather than payload content; for this HRESULT, authentication values, complete addresses, buddy lists, and bodies should be redacted or hashed under policy.
Protocol and object boundary
| RTC area | RTC provisioning profile validation boundary |
|---|---|
| Condition to prove | the profile contains an invalid session value or combination |
| Objects to correlate | profile XML, provision/user/server/session elements, registrar and proxy roles, transport and authentication method |
| Safe corrective direction | replace it with a documented value consistent with the rest of the profile and revalidate from source |
Interpreting it requires both of these facts: CreateProfile validates the provisioning schema and cross-field constraints; a field can be present yet still be unusable with the chosen transport or role; also, the result branch assumes that The enabled profile selected for a call must support both the destination and the requested session type.
Verification workflow
- Record it and
0x80EE003Bat the first RTC method or event that returns it. - Identify the client, profile, session, participant, presence object, terminal, or port manager that owns this it occurrence.
- Place it in its exact phase: parsing, discovery, transport, authentication, profile validation, dialog control, media, roaming, registration, redirection, or final response handling.
- prove the condition by ensuring the trace can record the exact value,
XMLelement, allowed enumeration, and related transport/role/session fields. - Apply one controlled change for this HRESULT: replace it with a documented value consistent with the rest of the profile and revalidate from source; then verify the result return value and resulting RTC state.
A SIP capture without RTC callback state cannot show which local object accepted or rejected the transition; for this HRESULT, an HRESULT-only log has the opposite weakness: it cannot show whether the result was generated before transmission or mapped from the peer.
Do not confuse it with
It is tied to the condition “the profile contains an invalid session value or combination”; preserve that producing boundary before choosing recovery; for this HRESULT, the neighboring results below require different control-flow decisions.
RTC_E_PROFILE_INVALID_SERVER_ROLE | the profile contains an invalid server role value or combination |
|---|---|
RTC_E_INVALID_PORTRANGE | the configured RTC media/listening port range is malformed or outside accepted limits |
RTC_E_PROFILE_SERVER_UNAUTHORIZED | the profile server address falls outside the domains authorized by provisioning policy |
Facility equality is not semantic equality; route each contrasted value through its own recovery branch.
Recovery and control flow
Recovery from it should be narrow: replace it with a documented value consistent with the rest of the profile and revalidate from source; while handling it, do not let a higher layer simultaneously recreate the same session, registration, listener, or profile.
Before retrying it, classify the previous operation as definitely failed, definitely completed, or remotely uncertain; for this HRESULT, that distinction prevents duplicate dialogs, bindings, transfers, or roaming mutations.
Example for this HRESULT: An automated profile feed emits an unsupported session value and CreateProfile rejects the document.
Actions that do not address this condition
- An investigation should not do not log passwords or provisioning secrets from profile XML.
- also do not insert placeholder values solely to pass schema validation.
- Keep it intact through exception and UI layers; a generic parameter or network message is insufficient for diagnosis.
Verification after a fix
Verify the result fix with a minimal deterministic case that reaches “the profile contains an invalid session value or combination”; the failing the case must assert the HRESULT and post-failure state; the passing case should alter one input and confirm both protocol outcome and cleanup.
