Maybe try this KB: http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=203362...

Is your Inventory Service installed correctly and pointing to SSO? You need to do inventory service before doing Vcenter Service

Hi,

I think SSO is not installed properly.Thre might be several reasons.

1) Try to access the following URL through browser (https://<ssohost-name:7444/lookupservice/sdk>).it should able to load a xml file.Then sso is working fine.

2) Both Machines(SSO,VC) date and time should be sync.

ok thanks

i will try if i coudn't access on https://<ssohost-name:7444/lookupservice/sdk what can be the source of problem

i install SSO and invetorry service on the same host

[Atul_gen]

There might be database problem.we can not reuse database for sso.If you are installing fresh sso, then you should always use new database.

Just restart the SSO service then try, some time it happens because it does not sync the time during installation.

Is this a fresh VM or host? Do you have any other applications running that might be using the same ports?

[misscloud]

i'm ussing vm host and no other application uses the port

[a_nut_in]

What if you give the IP address instead of the SSO FQDN?

[a_nut_in]

https://IP_Address:7444/lookupservice/sdk

You must have 245MB free on the destination drive for installation of the program, and you must have 315MB
free on the drive containing your %temp% directory.

But me i have a disk with 79G  , how can i  reduse %temp%files

thanks

[a_nut_in]

%temp% by default would be the C:\ drive - local temp for the account you are logged in with.

C:\ drive just shows about 100 MB free

You might have to free up about 1 GB space from your C:\ drive and then try

[misscloud]

so thanks i will try tomorow i don't know how to thank

really ur advices are very helpfful thankssssssssssss

[a_nut_in]

Just checking whether freeing up more disk space in c: drive helped?

[misscloud]

hi a_nut_in

how are you

To run several vApps simultaneous with the same IP and MAC addresses we use NAT and proxy ARP  what is the role of NAT

Thanks

[a_nut_in]

NAT gives you a private non routable IP address.

e.g

192.x range in you host environment that might be on a 172.x range
