Load Balancer Connection Error: 'the target machine actively refused it.' #140

Hi there. I am having issues connected to my newly deployed Photon Platform. I am using the Windows CLI to connect to the load balancer, as indicated in the Quick Start Guide:

  1. photon target set -c https://192.168.204.143:443 Response: API target set to 'https://192.168.204.143:443'

  2. photon-windows-1.2-dd9d360.exe target login --username administrator@privatecloud.local --password 'xxxxx' 2017/08/27 19:36:46 Error: Get https://192.168.204.143:443/v1/system/auth: dial tcp 192.168.204.143:443: connectex: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.

I saw another issue logged relating to iptables, but I have executed iptables.stop on all deployed VMs and still cannot connect. I can however ping all photon VMs from my workstation.

@gregordavis I encounter this issue and I found the solution. You have to reboot the load balancer VM then the TCP port 443 and TCP port 4343 will enable. Also I use the Linux VM which deploy on ESXi hypervisor to login to photon-controller.
