Symptoms:

The vCenter Server search function failed with an error similar to the following:

Unable to connect to the Web service to execute the query. Please verify that the "VMware VirtualCenter Management WebServices" service is running on https://:10443 (Unable to connect to web services to perform query.Verify that the "VMware VirtualCenter Management WebServices" service running on https://:10443)

Cause of the problem:

This problem occurs when vCenter Server is installed on a different computer than the original installation, but references the same vCenter Server database as the original installation.

For example, you install or upgrade to vCenter Server 5.0 on a computer and use a remote vCenter Server database. After that, you uninstall vCenter Server, reinstall vCenter Server on a new computer, and use the same database instance.

This problem occurs because of an error in endpoint information in vCenter Server for Inventory Service.

The way to solve the problem:

To resolve this issue without an upgrade, replace the vws.jar, jointool.jar and ds.jar files with the files attached to 2008664_vws.zip. Replacing these files causes the system to remove invalid Inventory Service endpoint information from the vCenter LDAP directory.

To replace a file:

1. Back up the vws.jar, jointool.jar and ds.jar files.

2. Download the attachment 2008664_vws.zip (Baidu network disk) and extract the vws.jar, jointool.jar and ds.jar files.

3. Stop VMware VirtualCenter Server service, VirtualCenter Management Webservices service and vCenter Inventory Service. For more information, see Stopping, starting, or restarting VMware vCenter Server services (1003895)

Note: wait five minutes after stopping the service before continuing with step 4.

4. Copy the vws.jar and jointool.jar files to the installation folder, such as C:\ Program Files\ VMware\ Infrastructure\ tomcat\ webapps\ vws\ WEB-INF\ lib on vCenter Server. This overwrites the existing vws.jar and jointool.jar files.

5. Copy the ds.jar file to the installation folder, such as C:\ Program Files\ VMware\ Infrastructure\ Inventory Service\ lib on vCenter Server. This action overwrites the existing ds.jar file.

6. Start VMware VirtualCenter Server service, VirtualCenter Management Webservices service and vCenter Inventory Service
