Issue upgrading vCenter 6.0 to 6.7

Good morning,

I'm trying to upgrade a separate PSC/vCenter 6.0 to 6.7 but I'm experiencing an issue when upgrading the PSC.

The upgrade UI shows "Service Unavailable (Failed to connect to endpoint: [N7Vmacore4Http20NamedPipeServiceSpecE:0x7f8cd406ee90] _serverNamespace = / _isRedirect = false _pipeName =/var/run/vmware/vpxd-webserver-pipe)503"  when connecting to the PSC and does not allow us to continue.

When accessing the PSC directly (https://psc) my browser shows the exact same issue.

When checking the rhttproxy.log in the PSC, we found the line below:

"Connection to named pipe /var/run/vmware/vpxd-webserver-pipe failed with error N7Vmacore15SystemExceptionE(No such file or directory).

Said directory indeed does not exist, but we noticed that it exists within the VMware appliance, but not the PSC.

Anyone ever came across this issue. vCenter and Web Client are working perfectly fine. Service restart and reboots were already done.

Thank you very much.

Issue was solved deploying a brand new PSC, pointing the vCenter to it and then removing the old one.
