Cant power on virtual machines on ESXi.

[Garraz]

Hi everyone , this is my first topic here im seeking for help in a issue that im having on ESXi 6.5 y 6.7.

Here is the thing , i have to make a project for my organization and i was willing to present this in the first time using VMware Workstation PRO 15 . The issue that im facing is that i cant power on any virtual machine inside ESXi , if i try to do that the status bar hangs on 0% and stays there for ever like this.

I checked already in the BIOS if the virtualization is enabled . The machine where im doing this is a i7 8700k whit 16gb of ram .

Regards and thank you very much!

What do the actual errors at the bottom say.

sjesse Actually is not a error , i clicked two times in the power one button and a warning was showed to me.

Try clicking on monitor and then events, and see if anything shows in there. IF not you may need to review the vpxd and hostd logs and look for the power on events in there.

I dont see anything estrange in the monitor

I cant find that vpxd log that you mention , i have one called vpxa instead.
