Automated Application Converter Eval Issue

[JerichoJones]

I get errors when trying to Convert to Virtual Packages. VMware Workstation is on a different PC than the Adminstudio install. I don't know if that is the problem or not....

22001 – VIX_E_WRAPPER_WORKSTATION_NOT_INSTALLED
Service type VIX_SERVICEPROVIDER_VMWARE_WORKSTATION was specified, but not installed.

It sounds like you need to install a copy of workstation, or of VIX, on your machine that's running the Automated Application Converter.

Hi MichaelU,

I have installed vix-api on the machine that has Automated Application Converter, still i am getting the same errors.

Thanks...

I think VMware Workstation must be on the same system as VIX API for it to work. In order to use VIX API to remotely control VM's, I'm nearly certain that you must use it with VMware vSphere.
