so, i thought the upgrade from 5.1 to 5.5 would be easy since we are not using Active Directory or HA, or DRS,,
Simple setup with one ESXi Server and 10 VMs.
I downloaded the 5.5 install pkg.
Tried the simple install first. i
It fails at the SSO install and rolls back.
I read many of the posting in the forum and have tried the suggestions including the mod to the registry for the IP.
Tried the Maual Install of SSO,,same thing..below is part of the log file..
