Unable to obtain hardware information

[dschlic1]

I am trying to migrate a Workstation VM to our ESX server. However when I try to open the existing workstation VM, I get the above error. I am using version 6.2.0

I have tried;

Running as administrator

Stopping file sharing

Re-installing the software

If you need the logs, where are the located? Also is there any other way of migrating an existing workstation VM to an ESX server?

You could try exporting the VM to an OVF, then import it to ESXi.

I have tried to do that, but ran into numerous errors. After modifying the hardware type to vmx-08 and deleting two unused unsupported disk interfaces, I get this error:

I have attached the OVF file in zip format.
