Vsphere 7.0U2 is throwing "A fatal error has occurred. Unable to continue." during ovf deployment

HI,

I am using vsphere 7.0.2 version and when I try to deploy an ovf , It throws error "A fatal error has occurred. Unable to continue."  when selecting ESX host under "Select a compute resource". 

This VC has been upgraded to 7.0.2 from 7.0 versions. When this setup was in 7.0.0,7.0.1 I was bale to deploy ovf files without any issues. In order to isolate issue with VC or ESX , I tried to deploy ovf directly on ESX which successful. ESX are also same versions as VC.

This issue was seen on 3 different vSphere which are in 7.0.2d

Can somebody help on how to resolve this??

Access via SSH

Run the following command to check the Content Library services status

service-control --status vmware-content-library

if the service STOPPED , run the following command to start

service-control --start vmware-content-library

hi

I have this issue to, im ussing vcsa v 7.0.3

at the first i check "Content Library Service", but it was started.

then i just logout and login to vCenter (every day i work with vCenter, in this version, if i refresh the browser, i dont need to insert username and password for login), and i passed that step and issue was solved.
