Image Not Loading

[Alexander Patterson <al...@csueastbay.edu>]

Hello,

I'm having an issue with one of my images

See Log here

http://pastebin.com/LT5wdBQr

This image was working fine before nothing was changed. I tried to do
both a image roll back and update the image and each time this image
loads I keep getting the same error.

I see the image on my ESXI 4.1 host, it's loaded up and waiting to log
in, I see it run the SSH Cygwin Scripts. I have the correct IP and the
machine is waiting for the connect, but ends up failing.

failed: process failed after trying to load or make available

It's strange because it doesn't really fail, it's up and running but
it won't ssh into it, when it's the same passwords as my other images.
It's only this image that was working for about 4 months and now it's
not working. I tested loading it on different ESXI 4.1 host and it was
the same issue. Same error log, any ideas?

This may be some sort of timing issue.  It would be helpful to have
the vcld.log output prior to what you included.  The output shows it
failing to determine the system32 path.  It should only get to this
point if SSH succeeded earlier.  The computer may have responded to
SSH for a brief period while it was still initializing, but stopped
responding when scripts were running.

Does SSH ever work for these images if you try it manually from your
management node after the process fails?
