Hi Guys,
I know this seems to have been covered a few times and a few months back, however, I am still having issues.
I cannot open a console to my virtual machines through Safari, firefox or chrome.
The Chrome error I am receiving is: Oops! Google Chrome could not connect to 'local_IP':7331.
Firefox replies: Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at 'local_IP:7331.
Safari replies: Safari can't open the page 'local_IP:7331,(with what looks like certificate id) because safari cannot connect to the server.
I have installed vCenter Appliance server 5.5
All browsers have been updated to their respective latest versions and all browsers will let me log in and i seem to have full functionality within the web client, just cannot open the console.
I have implemented the suggested fix on the below link, however this has not helped my cause.

My Mac is running Mavericks with no firewalls switched on.
I have downloaded and installed the client plugin when browsing to the web client interface: https://'local_ip':9443
I have tried removing the plugin for safari and re-installing, with no luck.
I have tried to open the console without installing the plugin, with no luck.
Now, funnily enough, I am also running Parallels on my Mac, running a Windows 8.1 VM.
I can open the console through both IE and firefox on my Windows VM (through Parallels) without any problems. Again, not running a firewall on my Windows VM which is why i don't believe it to be firewall or port related.
I can only speculate, that my issue is some how browser related, though I don't know how.
There is no antivirus on my Mac, so it can't be that. No proxies or anything like that.
I have restarted the vcenter server appliance numerous times. Still without luck.
Am i doing something wrong?
Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction or would have a fix that they know of. Any help would be greatly appreciated as i really am at wits end.
Thanks everyone!
Dennis.
