Hi, It seems that the SEB client has been configured with a .seb file so that it automatically start an exam. Did you uninstall and reinstall the seb client on the Mac? Or use basic seb file to reconfigure client app ? Thanks
We are still investigating, last night another group of 90 students did a test, without Safe Exam Browser. The group was 95% macOS users, and there were no disconnections. Our network team believes that it is not the signal that is at fault, the room is equipped with 7 antennas that can accommodate 200 clients each. We also asked for more data from the SEB test students. We are trying to establish what the link might be. Regards
According to the data collected it is mostly Macbook pro.
Hi, We have performed several tests, a common problem is noted during BYOD exams with SEB. Several students under macOS (Big Sur, Catalina, High Sierra) experience disconnection of the WiFi network, sometimes several times in a row. Windows users do not have this problem. In the same group, some macOS users may have difficulties while others do not, it is quite strange. I did a test with my mac under Catilina, I did lose the signal when I moved away from the router at home, a window in SEB warned...
Both (Chrome and Edge), only FireFox seems to ask with which application it should open the file.
Hi, I would like to know if there is a workaround to not have to display this message (Chrome and Edge), Firefox seems to do things correctly. Message that appears when launching SEB from an exam in Moodle: The information you're about to submit is not secure Because this form is being submitted using a connection that's not secure, your information will be visible to others. Regards,
Thank you, ye syou right i'am on Catalina.

Hi, I have just started testing the deep integration of SEB into Moodle. I notice that the manual configuration of SEB in Moodle only makes an exam functional for W10. I can also use macOS but on Mac I am able to capture the screen (to make a video). Is it possible to have BYOD exams with both Macs and PCs just by using the manual configuration, or should I use "Yes - use SEB client config" and provide a file for W10 and a file for macOS? Regards,
For a student after the upgrade to version 11.2.3 it is functional.
Hi, I have some Mac users who get "Error Loading Page" when starting SEB. Some have passed the training session but when they try again they get this message. One of the students is on 11.1 Big Sur. Regards
Hi, The important point is Horizon CLOUD but without fat client, that is to say a Web interface to connect to the VMs. Watch this video at 6:20 minute (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LoaesDicdbw). It uses the web client to launch the VMs. Regards
Hi, For more efficiency you should use VMware Horizon CLOUD with the ability to connect via a web browser. We have explored this solution to provide workstations with authorized software for students with disabilities. It's not very complicated (apart from deploying the Horizon infrastructure), but the idea is to have a SEB that launches the VPN connection via the web client to start a W10 machine that automatically starts SEB at the exam site. Once in the VM it is optional to use SEB because you...
Hi, We had a user who encountered a forbidden process with the PhotometaEdit application on MacOs (see picture). The user had no memory of having installed this application and it does not seem to have an option to uninstall either. Thank you
Okay, let me summarize. I can provide one .seb file but a generate 2 BEK (one on mac and one on PC). Or I have to provide one .seb file for the mac and another one for the PC and I will add the 2 BEK in the exam. It seems to me that with the previous versions we didn't have this kind of problem. We will plan to install the plugin within the next few weeks.
The .seb file is made with Seb Config Tool under Windows. <key>originatorVersion</key><string>SEB_Win_2.1.1</string>
Hi, We are in Moodle 3.8 without the integration of SEB. I have a seb exam file and the browser key is configured in the exam, for PCs under 3.1.1 everything is correct, but Mac users with version 2.2.2 are not recognized and cannot take the test. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you
Hi, Thank after a test i can use Seb 3.1.1 on W7. Regards

Hi, I just wanted to know if we can use version 3.1.1 on Windows 7 instead of installing version 2.4.1 for simple exams without third party software allowed Regards
If i use just a browser my link want to start SEB. I would try to test with mac during this day.
Hi, I try to test seb(s):// config links, but in SEB a new popup open with "Safe Exam Browser Reconfiguration" and in bottom "Safe Exam Browser download" but nothing happens. Thank you
Thank you for your reply. The slowness problems are on Windows as well as on macOS with Horizon HTML Access. But it's slower on macOS. It is possible that this comes from our infrastructure (Vsphere 5 and Horizon 6). I must also investigate if this comes from the display protocol used (RDS vs pcoip). We still have a lot of work to find the best solution.

Hi, We progress day by day in deployment to VDI solution with SEB. Did you have a roadmap to implement permitted process in SEB for macOS. Actualy we only use Horizon HTML Access to connect to VDI (but it's very slow at this point), we obtain better result to use VMware client Horizon but it's impossible to lunch this in SEB in macOS Thank you
Hi, I have got some informations from Balabolka's developper Ilya Morozov : I have installed SEB (ignoring antivirus warning) and found the root of the problem: my application interacts with the Taskbar of Windows 7; Balabolka shows the progress during reading aloud. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/shell/taskbar-extensions https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/muaddib/2010/05/23/windows-7-taskbar-progress-bar/ But SEB has its own taskbar, SEB blocks the access to the other taskbar, and...
Hi, We try to use SEB with Balabolka for student with students with disabilities. Enen if the Balabolka is authorise in SEB configration file. I get an error in background when is starting (see attachement file) I write to Balabaolka developpers and i get this response Balabolka has a lot of system functions, I worked hard to add them one by one: access to Speech API (version 4 and 5) and Microsoft Speech Platform; drag-and-drop interface support; clipboard monitoring; audio output device connect/disconnect...
Hi, I try to test VDI connection with SEB XULRunner, but i get an error. In our University we have Auto signed SSL certificat for internal use. Of course our virtuals machine are accessible via VMware Horizon HTML access but this url are not signed by trusted authority. My question it's possible to find a workaround or it's mandatory to use certificate signed by trusted authority. Thank you
Hi, We plan to deploy SEB with VDI to test different cases of users and applications. I have read many documents on Vdi and SEB, but I do not understand how to connect SEB to VDI. I can not find any configuration about this in SEB. Do I have to alolow the remote desktop (Windows)? What would be the method for MAC? Thank you for your answers Provenance : Courrierhttps://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986 pour Windows 10
Thank you for your quick answer, at this point we study and test different use case. If we find a valuable way, i would be interest to publish our research and results.
