Unattended code received 500: VIX Error: One of the parameters was invalid, code: 3, operation: vix.Connect #22

Closed jhgorse closed 8 years ago

Steps I take

brew cask install appcatalyst
appcatalyst-daemon
edit Vagrantfile
vagrant up --provider=vmware_appcatalyst

Note: when I first ran this, VMware Fusion was running in the background. Subsequently, it has been shut down along with its vms, yet this error persists.

Vagrant output:

frapposelli commented 8 years ago

@jhgorse it's most likely a licensing issue, see here: http://blogs.vmware.com/cloudnative/appcatalyst-update/

jhgorse commented 8 years ago

@frapposelli so... what is next? I would really like to continue to use VMware (I own Fusion, not Pro) to do the sorts of things that vagrant does and at the same time maintain a "free" toolchain path for others as well.

I think what is currently limiting that is the lack of the clone feature in the VIX vmrun tool for regular non-Pro Fusion.

zackhsi commented 8 years ago

Download the new version that @frapposelli linked to. It's the last release and works until December.

# kill old version of appcatalyst
sudo pkill appcatalyst-daemon
# download new version of appcatalyst
open http://bit.ly/getappcatalyst
jhgorse commented 8 years ago

@zackhsi good eye. I stopped reading at: "The technology preview for AppCatalyst will end on the 30th of June 2016."

@frapposelli what would it take to get the app-catalyst-daemon interface on VMware Fusion?
