Vote 0 Votes

Running VMware vSphere Client on Windows 7 you may see
Error parsing the server "xxx" "clients.xml" file. error message.
To fix this, ref. vsphere client on Windows 7 rc
I found newer system.dll version 2.0.50727.4927 not work,
version 2.0.50727.3053 works fine.

I made a self-extraction fix package for those who need it.
vsphere_fix_w7.exe
It contains workable system.dll and modified VpxClient.exe.config and a batch file VpxClient.bat
If you don't use the batch file, remember to add DEVPATH environment variable in Control Panel / System / Advanced
DEVPATH=%ProgramFiles%\VMware\Infrastructure\Virtual Infrastructure Client\Launcher\Lib

2010-06-07 Update:Update 1 for VMware vCenter Server 4.0 already support Windows 7
vSphere Client on Windows 7 now supported
