Web plugin missing in vCenter 6.0 Update 1b

Hi!

I have a problem with web plugins in vCenter 6.0 Update 1b. The plugins are installed and shows in Administration -> Client Plug-Ins but not in Home or any tab. I've tried with the plugins: Update Manager, HP GRE.....I can't disable it in the web client, in the fat client works perfectly.  I tried to install plugin, uninstall plugin, reboot vcenter, psc, web client service.... but not work.

The plugins exist in the correct VCSA path:

vcenter:/etc/vmware/vsphere-client/vc-packages/vsphere-client-serenity # ls -la

total 24

-rw-r--r-- 1 root           root  1310 May 10 14:43 wrapper.log

In the virgo log shows these errors when I tried to disabled it:

[ERROR] http-bio-9090-exec-19        70000783 100001 ###### com.vmware.vise.util.session.SessionUtil                          Tried to associate a session to an invalid clientId.

Searching in the knowlegde base I found this:

VMware KB: vCenter Server or Platform Services Controller certificate validation error messages for ...

I don't know if this is the source of the problem. I've checked the SSL certificates between vCenter and PSC and are different from them. Would they be the same?

If so, where should I change plugins? In vCenter, PSC or both?

Thanks in advanced.

Hi,

Did you ever resolve this issue?  I have a Window vCenter 6.0u2 producing this same issue with our plugin.  I haven't had a chance to run the validation steps as described in KB.

Thanks,

Bryant Martin
