Unable to edit setting on VMs Esxi 6.5

I am using ESXi 6.5 and I have 3 VM's running on this host.

Every time I try to edit the virtual machine through web client I get the following error.

"Cause: TypeError: Cannot read property '0' of undefined

Version: 1.8.0

Build: 4516221

ESXi: 6.5.0

Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/65.0.3325.146 Safari/537.36

I already tried different browsers and create another administrator account and I keep getting the same error.

Also when trying to edit the machine using Vsphere client I get the following error.

"You cannot use Vsphere client to edit settings of virtual machines of version 12 r higher.

Use VSphere web client to edit settings of this virtual machine."

I have a production server running out of space that I cannot edit. Is there a solution to this problem?

If not how can Increase the virtual disk through SSH?

Thanks,

Jesse

Try downloading and updating the embedded host client to version 1.24. It looks that you are using version 1.8.

Here is the link and instructions to do so:

Thanks, Both of you for your answers. This did help me past this error that I was getting but now I am getting an error with one of the drives on the virtual machine.

"Enter a disk size which is larger than its original capacity."\

I tried increasing or decreasing the size of the drive and still getting this error which makes me unable to change the size of the drive that I want.

Any ideas of what could this be?

Thanks in advance!
