vCenter Task type is displayed as 'Error' in vCenter Event Console

Steps:

we tried to create the datacenter manually in the vCenter Server by the navigation below

Home--->Host and Clusters and then right click the vCenter IP in the left side pane and click "New DataCenter"

Provide the name as "Test DataCenter" in the textbox and click 'OK'

The newly created DataCenter is displayed in the left side Pane under "Host and Clusters"

Now Click Home ----> Events. We can see the "Event Console" in the right side pane where we can find the task details for the newly created 'Test DataCenter".

Since the task is success, it should not display the type as "Error" but the task type is displayed as "Error' in the 'Event Console'

The above scenario occurs in all the vCenter versions(6.5,6.7u1,6.7u2)

Could someone help us on this?

It was finally identified that the problem which was causing the events to get displayed as errors was because the locale was set to "en_US" while registering the extension. The locale was supposed to be created with just "en".

With this change in place, all the events were getting displayed properly in the vCenter Event Console.
