Are you actually connecting to a View Connection Broker and not a vCenter Server?

[rakeshkranjan]

I am connecting to connection broker with view client.

Setup:-

Horizon View :- 5.2

[Linjo]

Are you using a proxy or similar in your network? try to connect directly to the IP of the connection broker.

// Linjo

[rakeshkranjan]

it is working fine without proxy. Is there any specific or recommended settings which I can do in my proxy settings to work perfectly.

[Linjo · Accepted solution]

Use the instructions in this KB: VMware KB: Configuring VMware View Client to bypass Internet Explorer proxy settings

[rakeshkranjan]
