Hi
I have installed vCenter Server 6.0 for a customer today, which completed fine - however I now have issues getting permissions i vCenter Web Client - even when using the SSO administrator login.
I can manage the environment from the legacy vSphere Client, however when logging into the Web Client i get the "You do not have permission to view this object or this object does not exist". and this even goes for the SSO administrator login. I cannot add global permissions or administer roles.
see screeenshots attached.
anyone had this issue before? and maybe a solution?
Hello,
We had a very similar issue after our VCSA had a memory allocation error and crashed. We rebooted it and the PSC but then lost any connectivity via the web client (thick client worked on some things).
The main issue = PSC lost it's AD connection
The verification:
The fix:
In my case I did lose some of my 3rd party plugins which I had to re-register.
Hopefully this helps someone else.
Thanks

Forgot to mention....
If you have multiple PSC servers in a single SSO domain, perform the AD query on each one to verify they are connected.

This is also a possibility of the initial cause.
If you restored a PSC via a snapshot or backup. This can cause replication issues between PSC as the Update Sequence Number (USN) gets out of sync. There is currently no fix for this (VMware KB: Possible vSphere.local domain inconsistencies after restoring a vCenter Server Single Sig...)
A way to double check: (https://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=21270...)
If your PSC does not show the replication partner you expect, then the replication is broken.
Thanks

I think I have an answer for this one, or at least a workaround.
I found it by accident when my machine would not load Adobe Air.
The issue is similar to the one covered by KB article 2125229:Error: "You do not have permissions to view this object or this object does not exist" in vSphere We...;
A search for the solution to that lead me to a German forum on Air installation issues:Installationsproblem mit AIR - never ending story |Adobe Community which had to be Google Translated;
Which lead me to web page for resolving Autodesk Installation issues which contains 4 possible solutions: Install Failure: Error 997. Overlapped I/O operation is in progress. | Search | Autodesk Knowledge N...
The first solution worked for me. No since you are not installing Autodesk or air there is a slight difference: (The installations replaced the file we are going to edit.)
SOLUTION: (works for Windows 7-10 I believe)
The Autodesk page refers to a Windows security update KB2918614 that is preventing Overlapped I/O operations. I suspect the file from June 2016 is to blame, (starts with ccd74...), and you can test this yourself but I only ended up with one file. YMMV
If you are still having issues there are three other solutions to try from the Autodesk page. One of them is a registry hack for the SecureRepairWhitelist and is more likely to be useful than the VMware KB article's registry hack.
