vCenter on Windows Server 2008 cannot open VM´s. unable to connect to the MKS console: Timeout during an attempt to read

I have setup a new vCenter to replace the old (new on MS server 2008, an old man on MS server 2003), but after registering the VM´s, I am not able to connect to them with the console. Error message: unable to connect to the MKS: Timeout during an attempt to read

If I connect directly to the host ESX 4 it works fine.

Is that what someone has any ideas, how to solve this problem? I have already tried:

-Added the new vCenter address and IP to the/etc/hosts

-restart the ESX servers

-Re-installed VMware tools to the new vCenter

None of the above has helped, and I start to desperate... Anyone have an idea?

If you use vcenter to manage your servers from another computer. You should try to disable the windows firewall on the vcenter computer that manages the esx server. He worked for another problem in the past. Windows firewall started blocking applications of mks someday and we don't know why. Allowing exceptions in windows firewall did not work if the firewall has been turned off completely and then it worked.

    Hello

    Know what type of network card you have and download the drivers of its supplier.

    It doesn't matter what it is always a good idea before re-install/upgrade to log on to the computer support page, download independent drivers from there and put them on a flash drive.

    Hello

    Maybe this can help.

    These steps and tell us where is the breaking point.

    Check the Device Manager for the wireless card valid entry.

    http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/net_dm.jpg

    If there is no valid entry, remove any entry from fake and re - install the drivers for the wireless card.

    Check network connections to make sure that you have a network icon/entry wireless connection, and that the properties of the icon (right-click on the icon) are correctly configured with the TCP/IPv4 protocol in the properties of network connections.

    http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/net_connection_tcp.jpg

    ------------------

    The wireless card drivers much also install utility wireless of the seller.

    Make sure that if there are teas from Wireless Utility of seller does not work with the native Windows wireless utility (Service WLAN).

    ----------------

    Make sure you firewall No. preventing / blocks wireless components to join the network.

    Some 3rd party software firewall continue to block the same aspects it traffic Local, they are turned Off (disabled). If possible set up the firewall correctly, otherwise totally uninstall and get rid of its remaining processes that permit the own local network traffic flow.

    If the 3rd party software is uninstalled, or disables, make sure Windows native firewall is active .

    party like Hello and NetMagic 3rd network managers can block local traffic too.

    ---------------------------

    Stack TCP/IP work should look like.

    Right-click on the wireless network connection card, select status, details and see if she got an IP address and the rest of the settings.

    http://www.ezlan.NET/Win7/status-NIC.jpg

    Description is the data of the card making.

    The physical address is MAC of the card number.

    The xx must be a number between 0 and 255 (all xx even number).

    YY should be between 0 and 255

    ZZ should be between 0 and 255 (zz all the same number.)

    The date of the lease must be valid at the present time.

    * Note 1. IP that starts with 169.xxx.xxx.xxx isn't valid functional IP.

    * Note 2. There could be an IPv6 entries too. However, they are not functional for Internet or LAN traffic. They are necessary for Win 7 homegroup special configuration.

    ---------------------------------------------------

    A message in the small window that says connected wireless doesn't means that you are really a valid functional connection.

    Above everything is OK, you must be able to connect to the router.

    Connection to the router means that you can enter the IP of the router base in an address bar in one go, being able to connect and configure the router menus see.

    If it doesn't connect to the router, journal newspaper from any computer that can connect to the router wirelessly with a wire, disable wireless security, make sure that the wireless SSID broadcast is enabled and try to connect with no. wireless security.

    Enable security wireless after you eat to make a functional connection.

  • Unable to connect to the MKS: unable to connect to the server [hostname]: 903

    Hello

    * I installed esx 4.0 within a vmware desktop 7.

    * whenever I try to open an OS Fords under army exh via VI client I get this error message.

    * I can ping from the host esx server but I can not telnet the BONES on the 903 host port.

    * I have reset the firewall configuration to allow everything on the esx server still the same thing.

    * can I get help on this.

    I want to build some virtual machines under esx server. This error is not to let that happen.

    Try to stop the firewall on the ESX host, as well as on the computer where you run VI client.

    If possible please delete the firewall between the two, then try to connect using the VI client. If it does not connect remove the firewall between a connection attempt

    In this way, you can locate the problem if it is with the firewall or the server itself.

    To stop the firewall on ESX run below command

    esxcfg-firewall - allowincommin - allowoutgoing (this is for ESX4)

    Firewall service stop (that's ESX3)

    I am a newbie to Flash media server and I want to study its use.

    Does anyone have experience with Flash Media Server 3.5.3 running on Windows Server 2008 R2? I installed FMS on my Windows Server 2008 R2, but cannot start the administration console.

    Furthermore, I installed FMS on a 32-bit Windows Server 2003 computer. And I am able to use the administration console on the 2003 server to connect to the Server 2008 R2 installation.

    Also, I have a full disc that is used to contain the content of the media streaming via FMS. How can I configure FMS using this drive as root for multimedia file instead of using "c:\program files (x86)\...\webroot\vod.

    Thanks a lot for helping me start the project.

    Best regards

    1 as you say rightly first of all it is not question FMS as you can connect to the server administration through another machine. So probably his Win 2008 or IE or some Flash question - don't have much idea about it.

    2. you can use VideoPlayer.html present in samples C\Program Files (x 86) folder \Flash Media Server 3.5\samples\videoPlayer. "Put the URL correct example" rtmp://myIPAddress/vod/myfile.flv (where myfile.flv is placed in D:\myMediaFiles)
