Can someone help me with an issue I'm facing in which I am unable to open the GUI in my browser. It keeps loading but the GUI never opens. Ping and ssh are fine.
Has anyone faced a similar issue?
Hi,
Did you submit and install the certification authority from the web interface?
If you have reset the browser cache it can happen that when you open the web interface nothing is displayed on the screen. In this case you have to click with the mouse on the screen and accept the security that appears.

Hi Alessandro,
Thanks for the update. I have tried to install the certificate as well but i am still unable to access. I am not able to see anything in the browser and it keeps on loading.
Hi,
check that TCP ports 902 and 443 are open by firewall (see link):
Incoming and Outgoing Firewall Ports for ESXi Hosts

Ports are open as I was able to access it before. It was working fine a few days ago.
Is there any service for ESXi Web UI? Could it be that some service is not running causing Esxi Web interface to stop working ..
Hi,
try this:
you can also try connecting to another browser
Hi Alessandro,
Thanks for the update. Can you let me know if the these commands would impact the services as Its a production environment. Issue is the same with all browsers.
1) SSH to ESXi host
#ssh root@esxi-host
2) Stop Web Service
#/etc/init.d/hostd stop
Goto http://esxi-host for check
3) Start Web Service
#/etc/init.d/hostd start
Goto http://esxi-host for check
Hi,
Log in to SSH or Local console as root.
Run these commands:
/etc/init.d/hostd restart
/etc/init.d/vpxa restart
What may be worth a try is run:
/etc/init.d/rhttpproxy restart
which should not impact anything else.
Caution: Restarting the Management Agents is ok, unless "Autostart" is enabled for the VMs. In this case the Autostart VMs may reboot.

I'm seeing the below errors in the /var/log/hostd.log. Can someone tell me what do these errors mean?
