Cannot Validate

[jtokach]

Hi,

Running vCO 4.2 on vCenter 5 with ESX 4.1. When we try to click Validate on any workflow, the vCO client locks up, no error, you have to kill the process.

Nice one :smileymischief: ...

do you see something in the server.log?

Nothing in the server.log. When we click validate, the vCO client window loses active focus (the titlebar turns grey, not blue) and that's it. In task manager, it doesn't say "Not Responding", rather it's in a normal run state "Running". It never comes back and you can't switch focus back, and we have to kill the process. It's like the new window wants to display, but is invisible.

Ah ha!

ALT-SPACE, M, Right arrow.

The validate window is being drawn offscreen. I can move it back to center, but the window position is not retained.

We use roaming profiles and also run vCO 4.1. Is there a conflict? Can we get this bug resolved so it draws the validate window in the center?

I'm also using a dual monitor system connected over RDP.
