vcenter 5.5 failed, the service will not start!

[Dreher]

Friends,

I'm having trouble in vCenter services "vCenter Server" and "web services" do not start, already looked in the event log error and makes reference to the event in 1000. watched the ODBC and is OK, SQL database also OK, the only thing that does not could find was the SSO (Single Sign On) service, also vpxd.log not located the file, as if it had been deleted.

What can I do??

Have you search for the vpxd.log in the folder C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware VirtualCenter\Logs ? If you found, please post the content of the log.

It was the first thing I had, but did not find the folder that ...

Remember that C:\ProgramData is a hidden folder... then you maybe need enable show hidden folder or just paste C:\ProgramData in Windows Explorer.

still does not appear ...
