i have 2 vmware view servers setup, a main one that is always used, this is a physical server, and a replica vmware view server for failover purposes, this installed on a VM. both systems are Windows 2003. when i logged into the replica server the vmware connection server service was not started, i started this manually and i could log in, the server was very slow so rebooted it, everything came back up fine, i could login to vmware view. i tried to connect from a laptop onto a vm through vmware view and was unable, i then tried it through my browser and got the error below for both connections A connection to the View Server https://servername:443 could not be established.
Could not connect through proxy. Please check your proxy settings
i can log in fine with my first vmware view server
use SSL for client connections is on.
the last time i used the replica server was fine, but this was back in october 2011. the server is not used for anything else
has any one any ideas what may be causing this issue?
