vmbix connection problem

[Syl20]

Hello,

I'm encountering an issue when I try to connect vmbix.

When I try to connect directly with this following command it's ok:

[root@QYVZL1023028 sbin]# ./vmbix -P 12050 -u "vsphere.local\\zabbix" -p "mypassword" -s https://vcenter.mydomain/sdk
log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (com.vmware.vim25.ws.XmlGenDom).
log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.
log4j:WARN See http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/faq.html#noconfig for more info.
16:20:21.312 [main] INFO net.dav3860.VmBix - starting server on port 12050
16:20:21.323 [main] INFO net.dav3860.VmBix - server started

But if i try to launch the deamon with the same parameters I have this error message :

[root@QYVZL1023028 sbin]# service vmbixd start
Démarrage de vmbixdÂ*:                                    [  OK  ]

I found nothing about this error... I can see the com.vmware.vim25.InvalidLogin issue but the parameters are corrects..

Any idea ?

thanks for your help

Is your username in domain\name format or just name?

I've found that if it's in domain\name then that works on command line, but in file it needs to be domain\\name to work properly.

Hi Jason

I tried different things
-domain\name
-domain\\name
-domain@name
-name@domain
-local vmware account

Nothing work..
