Hello.

I can't browse my vCenter. When I want to browse it via web then it show me:

" 503 Service Unavailable (Failed to connect to endpoint: [class Vmacore::Http::NamedPipeServiceSpec:0x0000007d93f88090] _serverNamespace = / action = Allow _pipeName =\\.\pipe\vmware-vpxd-webserver-pipe)"

I did:

How can I solve it?

Thank you.

Please share all the service status. If you have external PSC please share the PSC service status as well.

Please also stop using Windows-based vCenters as they are dead and not returning. The vCSA is the only choice moving forward.

Provide output of the below.

cd C:\Program Files\VMware\vCenter Server\bin

service-control --status --all

And start all the services to check if it fails for any service. I believe vpxd service might be down.

service-control --start --all

Regards,

I got the same error, the solution was correcting SQL permissions for the user account used for the ODBC DSN  which had been modified from its original configuration.
