VMWare Server Error adding a vCenter Converter Standalone converted machine
I'm trying to add/open a vCenter Converter converted server in VMWare Server.
It won't show up in the inventory and I can't "Add Virtual Machine to Inventory"
Also trying to "Create Virtual Machine" but when I point tot the .vmdk file it displays an error:
"Warning - There is a problem with the following fields: - The file path format is invalid. Please use the format '[ds_name]/path/to/file'.
How can I
(a.) Get VMWare Server to see the vCenter Converter converted server...or
(b.) Create a new Virtual Machine and point it to the .vmdk file?

Thank you. You were dead on.
The VM must be located inside this datastore, or folder on the hard drive!
