FAILED: A general system error occurred: Remote server closed connection after 0 response bytes read

I have the same problem with this link A general system error occurred: Server closed connection after 0 response bytes read

and can't get the convert-worker.log.

Is there any solution?

Thanks.

Hello

the log you have provided contains the following line:

2015-04-28T10:10:56.985+08:00 [03500 info 'Default'] [diagnosticManager,495] Adding worker log bundle from temp location "C:\WINDOWS\Temp\vmware-temp\vmware-SYSTEM\worker-source-diagnostics-ztj.zip" to server log bundle at "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\VMware\VMware vCenter Converter Standalone\logs\bundles\server-diag-20150428021045-dwhuxz.zip".

HTH. If not, look in "C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\VMware\VMware vCenter Converter Standalone\logs" for "vmware-converter-worker-###.log"

192.168.250.145 is the local machine's IP ( "Powered-On Machine"),

my convert setting likes follows,

Source Type : Powered-On Machine / This Local Machine

Location for the Virtual machine : D:\VM_PC


attached log file is my latest Try today.

These are gui logs which are not in use in this case.

If you want to convert your local machine, you can connect to 'local server', run the GUI 'as administrator' and then convert the machine to local location, i.e. d:\xxx. However you *must* not include disk 😧 in conversion in this case!
