Hello,
I installed the software Vcenter converter in German on a Windows 7 Pro (64 bit) computer with 8 GB RAM and plenty of disk space.
I'd like to convert an existing Linux server (Ubuntu server 12.04, nearly production environment) into a virtual machine. I'd like to "play" with that VM using VMWare player on a different Windows machine in a test environment.
However, in the German version of the converter, the following error message appears: "Die Berechtigung zur Durchführung des Vorgangs wurde verweigert". Which means roughly translated: "the permission to perform that was rejected."
I specified the Linux machine with the IP address, gave the root user and the respective password. I can access that machine via putty with root and that password via port 22, I checked that several times.
What could be the problem???
Thank you in advance and best regards,
Frank
