    Hello,

    I am getting the following error and am hoping that I have provided you with enough info to troubleshoot:

    Server version unavailable at 'https://10.0.0.15:443/sdk/vimService.wsdl' at /usr/share/perl/5.26/VMware/VICommon.pm line 704.

    Try to start vEMan v0.9.6_BETA for Linux at the commandline to see debug output

    vmware-version:
    vSphere SDK for Perl version: 6.7.0
    Script 'vmware-cmd' version: 6.7.0

    • Using vEMan 0.9.6_BETA
    • Password doesn't contain special characters
    • I don't have any file called ~./vEMan/sessiondata when the program is running
    • vEMan settings look accurate (replaced HASHPW here for security purposes):

    ~./vEMan/settings
    VUSER="root"
    HASHPW="blah blah blah"
    SRV="10.0.0.15"

    • In the console output below I do see many references to this:
    /tmp/vEMan_v0.9.6/libs/ESXMGR.vEMan: line 4: /home/don-verga-sr/.vEMan/10.0.0.15/progress.tmp: Permission denied
    • Even after running sudo chmod +777 ~/.vEMan/progress.tmp I still get the same error
    • Here's the console output when I run it:

    • After re-reading my previous post I noticed this line:
    DEBUG: No source file detected.
DEBUG: Can't find /home/don-verga-sr/.vEMan/10.0.0.15/lastovf.cfg file, nothing to include.
    • If this is relevant, I am wondering where I can find this

    Wow someone still using this? :)

    You have several permission issues the main one is:

    DEBUG: Hashed pass is: blah blah blah
    /tmp/vEMan_v0.9.6/libs/MKCFG.vEMan: line 16: /home/don-verga-sr/.vEMan/settings: Permission denied

    mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/home/don-verga-sr/.vEMan/certs/’: Permission denied

    Maybe you started vEMan as root/with sudo once?

    Anyways do this:

    sudo chmod -R 765 ~/.vEMan

    and try again.

      Hey secure diversITy, thanks for the reply. I can confirm that the permissions are now set correctly for ~/.vEMan as per your advice, but still I'm getting the exact same error. I'm not sure what else I can try or show in terms of current config...
