Error when trying to connect to ESXi Failed to login to ESX

Post by SamDLC »

I am currently running Veeam Backup with 3 ESX hosts. I decided to buy an additional license to add a new ESXi server I recently installed.
Now when I try to add a host on my Veeam Backup server I receive the following Error:
Failed to login to 'ESX10" by SOAP, port 443, user "root", proxy srv:port:0
Input string was not in correct format.
I logged in directly to the ESXi using my vclient and I do not have any issues.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hammy, this is an old thread that talks about lack of support for vSphere 4.1, which obviously is not the case with our current version - Veeam B&R v5. Here is the topic that Anton refers to: vSphere 4.1 support (or lack of)

By the way, further searching led me to this topic, that you may find applicable to your case. If not, then please open a support ticket with our technical team:
Error Backing up VM's - Input string not in correct format

Thanks!
