Solution

u

Click the refresh button next to the vCenter Server hierarchy in vCenter Chargeback.
The refresh button is displayed only if there is a change in the vCenter Server hierarchy and the Hierarchy

Manager tab is refreshed.
The tab can be refreshed by user actions, such as clicking another tab of the application and then clicking

the Manage Hierarchy tab.

Installer Throws the SQL Driver Not Found Error

When installing or upgrading vCenter Chargeback, the installer throws an SQL driver-related error.

Problem

The vCenter Chargeback installer fails and displays a Connection Failed error with the following message:

Reason for failure:SQL JDBC Driver not found.

Cause

You might be running the installer from a shared location on the network.

Solution

1

Copy the installer files on to the local machine.

2

Run the installer from the local machine.
The installer fails if run from a remote location. An alternative is to map the shared location of the installer

to a network drive and then run the installer.

LDAP Server Configuration Fails

You can configure LDAP over SSL by selecting the Enable LDAPS option when configuring the LDAP server

in vCenter Chargeback.

Problem

Adding or modifying an LDAP server in vCenter Chargeback with the Enable LDAPS option selected fails.

vCenter Chargeback throws the following error:

Could not establish connection with the LDAP server
'ldaps://

LDAP_IP:LDAP_Port' because of SSL error.

Cause

An earlier attempt to run the 

keytool

 command for adding a certificate to the keystore or modifying the

keystore password might have failed.

Solution

1

Restart the vCenter Chargeback service.

2

Run the 

keytool

 command to install the certificate downloaded from the LDAP server.

3

Configure the LDAP server in vCenter Chargeback with the Enable LDAPS option selected.
