Hi
I am trying to add my vCenter Server with Composer enabled into VMWare View. When enabling the "Enable View Composer" checkbox it finds the proper domain but it does not let me save it. I get the error "Error saving vCenter entry". I can save it, if I disable the composer settings.
VMWare View Server:
VMWare vCenter Server:
I have created a new Database for viewComposer and added the System-DSN. The View Composer is running on port 4141
Any hints on what this could be?
Can you double check composer version?
Composer 2.0 will not be fully functional with View 4.5, you need to upgrade to Composer 2.5.
quote from KB http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1027095 : Until both View Connection Server and View Composer are upgraded, View Composer operations do not work. If you have View Connection Server 4.5 and View Composer 1.0 or 2.0, you can connect to the desktops, but no new linked-clone desktops can be created. Also, recompose, rebalance, and refresh operations do not work and you cannot edit the settings for linked-clone pools

VMware vCenter Server:
VMware View Connection Server:
Active Directory VM
The user has "administrator" role for vCenter, View Manager and Active Directory and can login correctly as VMVIEWCSDC\buonam on View Admin Console.
Is anyone getting into the same error?
Thanks for your support
Do you have any vShield Trial Licenses registred on the vCenter? If so, try to remove the licence and try to add the vCenter again.
// Linjo
In the screenshot there are several vShield Licenses installed.
Remove them and try again...

Hi,
I've removed the three vShield components and disabled UAC on vCenter 2008 VM.
Same error 😞
Server Address: WIN-1C4DHD8BSM7
VMVIEWCSDC\buonam failed to add VC server https://WIN-1C4DHD8BSM7:443/sdk
What /sdk means?

Thanks
Is name-resolution working? Is it a supported VC version?
Try FQDN:s.
// Linjo
Yes, name-resolution is working
screenshot attached
Try FQDN:s.
VMVIEWCSDC\buonam failed to add VC server https://WIN-1C4DHD8BSM7.vmviewcsdc.vmlab.com:s:44
It seems adding 5 characters at the end of the FQDN
:s:44 instead of :443/
crazy!!!

Same issue here; name not vcenter. dns resolving fine across/between boxes. changed to domain admin and administrator role ad account. removed the vshield edge license i had and rebooted the vc. Problem is with latest view 4.6 against vsphere 4.1update1.
