Guys,
Need your help, on friday for an as yet unknown reason our VCenter server stopped allowing direct connections to it. We have 4 servers in linked mode and you can connect to one of the others and admin the server that way, and you can Admin it via the https://localhost/ui site, but when you try and connect to it direct using vsphere, on any client when it gets to the "Loading Main Form" part of the startup you get a popup that says:
Has anyone seen this before? I started thinking it was due to a rogue plugin, but this is happening on the server, my laptop and a collegues laptop in the US, all getting exactly the same. I've done a full removal of the client from my PC, and installed 4.1 update 1, but still does the same. so the error appears to be driven by VCenter. Its installed on a Windows 2008 R2 64bit, with the DB on a seperate server. the ODBC connector tests fine.
Any help would be greatful!
Thanks
mike
Any luck with this? I have the same problem, but not linked mode, I actaully moved vcenter from OS to another.

Hi
Welcome to the communities.
Please review and share this log file .
vpxd-alert.log:
Hi,
my farm is 4.1U1. The vCenter is in Linked mode with others (3 others farms). When I connect to another farm, all is OK. If I connect to this vCenter (with IP, localhost, hostname, from RDP or not, etc,) I cannot. The logs "says" the same things
Error: An internal error occurred in the vSphere Client.
Details: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
You close that and vshpere shuts down.
Creating the logs zip file displays this:
[ :ShowExcp:M: 6] 2011-06-01 09:25:05.326 Error: An internal error occurred in the vSphere Client.
Details: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
...
I have tried re-installing vSphere Client, but nothing...
Thank you
