asked on

error" unable to cnnect to the MKS : could not connect to pipe........" when attempting to view console on 2012 VM in vcenter , but can when directly from the host

I think this maybe something related to my other question on why I can not upload to vcenter directly and can to the host

this is the error I get when I attempt to console into a new 2012 image I am building

I get NO ERROR if I view the console thru the host !!!

thanks !!!!!!!!

used the  DNS server for my workstation that the Vcenter server is using for primary DNS  . I moved it to the top of the DNS stack in the network setting  and flushed the cache and now works fine
I had added that DNS server that the Vcenter server uses in ERROR , I had fat fingered the IP!!!!!


thanks again !!!
if you still have trouble move the DNS IPUser generated image that the vcenter and the workstation are looking at to the TOP OF THE STACK
