error with tool

[ianeriksonVMware]

Hi,

Working with a customer who is trying the tool..

They are getting an error "Import-Clixml : Data at the root level is invalid. Line 1, position 1" while setting up the initial configuration.

Snippet of cred file is as below $newPScreds = Get-Credential -message "abcd" $newPScreds | Export-Clixml nsxMgrCreds.xml

thanks, Ian

@ianeriksonVMware What directory were you in when you exported/generated the credential file? / Have you verified that it exists and there is valid content within the file, located in the \Plugins\15 NSX directory?

If so, can you try the following and see if it helps?:

1. Open ~\Plugins\00 Initialize\01 Connection Plugin for NSX.ps1 in you editor of choice
2. On line 20, replace everything with the following: $creds = Import-Clixml "$PSScriptRoot\..\Plugins\15 NSX\nsxmgrCreds.xml"

Hi, can I ask if the steps in the README were followed before running the report? - you need to create and store an xml credentials file, did that happen?
