Description Jan Hutař 2014-07-01 07:37:22 UTC
Description of problem:
Clicking "Load Datacenters" when creating VMWare compute resource complains: "String does not start with the prefix 'encrypted-', so Foreman::Model::Vmware VMWare-vCentre was not decrypted" and you can not save the compute resource. No error message is displayed.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Satellite-6.0.3-RHEL-6-20140626.1
VMware-vCenter-Server-Appliance-5.5.0.10000-1624811_OVF10.ova + latest updates


How reproducible:
always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start VMware-vCenter-Server
2. Create compute profile with VMWare provider, IP adress set to vCenter server,
   user "root" and password "vmware" (credentials I use to connect to "VMware
   vCenter Server Appliance" webUI)
3. Click [Load Datacenters]


Actual results:
Nothing happens in webUI besides "Fingerprint" field being populated. Clicking on [Submit] do not save the compute resource


Expected results:
Either error message should appear or [Submit] should save the compute resource

Comment 2 Jan Hutař 2014-07-01 08:06:34 UTC
OK, when I have created some datacenter (I have created some cluster as well) in vSphere Web Client, it started to work. So please read this bug like "With no datacenters, error should be shown" - otherwise webUI just seems unresponsive.

Comment 3 Dominic Cleal 2014-07-09 10:19:56 UTC
Created redmine issue http://projects.theforeman.org/issues/6540 from this bug

I can add vmware vCenter sucessfully now and according to Comment 2:

1, leave "VCenter/Server *", "Username *", "Password *" blank, click "Load Datacenters", error is shown as "can't be blank"

2, fill in with not exist vCenter, time out and prompt:
Unable to save
execution expired

3, fill in with wrong user/password, it prompt:
Unable to save
InvalidLogin: Cannot complete login due to an incorrect user name or password.

So I thinks this bug has been fixed, thanks!
