Hi,
Unable to get vCenter Server Service started.
Here is what i could see in vpxa logs

cool..
I suggest to stop and start the services in following order. Seems to be proxy dependent unnecessary, not sure y it is creating entry at first place.
Stop
1. VMware VCDB
2. WWW service --- as on windows server
3. Web Proxy service -- as on windows server
Start
VMware vCenter Server , should start now
Other two services would start automatically if not then have VCDB started manually. Web services would get start very next time you try login to explorer.
Check ADSI and check if this instance exists.
If not then you may have to create it for service to work. make sure u take backup of ADSI first and stop all VC services , make a change and renable.
i could see entry is there,
but i took the backup and re-created it as stated, stopped and after work started services
But now in see different error

Service is up and running fine. Able to login to vCenter server back now.
Thanks for all help!
