vSphere Client Could not connect to ESXi host

We have 2 VM Host in our setup with VMware ESXi 6.0 and 6.7 version. Out of which we are able to access VMware ESXi 6.0 host from VSphere Client Version 6.0.0 but when I am trying to access ESXi Host with version 6.7, It gives below error --

vSphere Client could not connect to <IP of ESXi Host). An unknown connection error occurred. (The client could not send a complete request to the server. (The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a send.))

Troubleshooting Steps ---

1. Ping --- OK

2. Web Client from computer --- OK

3. Restart management service --- OK

4. Restart ESXi host --- OK

This happened after I upgrade version of ESXi host from 6.0 to 6.7. I was able to access same host earlier through vSphere client with ESXi version 6.0.

Please help me to resolve the issue.

Hi,

The vSphere Client is no longer available starting with vSphere 6.5.

So, kindly use web client to connect to your host.
