I don't know what I'm missing here. I'm logging on to my vCSA installation via PuTTY in an attempt to enable the Log Browser vSphere Web Client plugin according to this article: Enable the Log Browser Plug-In on the vCenter Server Appliance.
In both my lab environment and in my primary vSphere environment, when I drill down to /usr/lib/vmware-vsphere-client/plugin-packages, there is no logbrowser directory to open. I therefore can't rename the appropriate file required to activate the Log Browser plugin.
What am I missing? See attached screenshot of "dir" when I drill down as far as I can:
You are absolutely right! Log Browser folder is indeed missing in vCSA 6.7. It will either be fixed in the next release of 6.7 or we will have the new set of instructions on how to enable the log browser. I will keep looking and let you know if I find more -

Any update on this, appears to still be missing in 6.7 Update 2 (April).
Any update on this? When it will be included in 6.7?
Seriously, when is this going to be fixed? I have upgraded to vCenter Server 6.7 Update 3m, from MAR 18 2021, and this is still not fixed. It has been about 3 years at this point.
Should we all just assume that vmware has permanently deprecated the log browser and it will never be functional again? After 3 years I don't see how a reasonable person could assume anything else.
not the solution... This needs to be fixed please, i cannot view logs but all the guides expect i can.. how to install this plugin if it is missing?
