Hi All!
How to connect to a shared VM with VIX API 1.15 (c#, although this is not important at this time)? I have a VMWare Workstation Pro 12.5.2, it is installed on Windows Server 2016 (not joined to a domain, nothing is installed, firewall off). I have a Console Application to test:
object res = null;
VixCOM.VixLibClass vix = new VixCOM.VixLibClass();
VixCOM.IJob vixJob = vix.Connect( VixCOM.Constants.VIX_API_VERSION,
VixCOM.Constants.VIX_SERVICEPROVIDER_VMWARE_WORKSTATION_SHARED,
"20.150.0.1",
0,
"Administrator",
"blablabla",
0,
null,
null );
UInt64 result = vixJob.Wait( new int[] { VixCOM.Constants.VIX_PROPERTY_JOB_RESULT_HANDLE },
ref res );
if ( vix.ErrorIndicatesFailure( result ) )
{
Console.WriteLine( "Failed: {0}", result );
return;
}
Console.WriteLine( "Connect success..." );
I run this test app on server, the result failed, return code: 22003, VIX_E_WRAPPER_SERVICEPROVIDER_NOT_FOUND... If I run this test with hostType=VixCOM.Constants.VIX_SERVICEPROVIDER_VMWARE_WORKSTATION, with null host-username-password, working properly, the returned result code is 0. Persmissions of Shared VM is Administrator role to local Administrators group. Edit menu, Preferences, sharing is enabled...
I have no more ideas, help me please!
Thx, Lac
