Hi All,
I am getting below error while while playing UI VM(UI VM.ova) in VMware Player. Has anybody also got same error. Please help.
Thanks in advance,
RizQad
It's actually no error, but the result of not being able to get automatic (DHCP) IP settings. Please check which virtual network (Host-Only, NAT, Bridged) is configured for the VM and check whether the related DHCP service is running. Also make sure the VM's network adapter is configured with "Connect at power on". If there's no DHCP server available follow the instruction in the red part of the screen.

Thanks Andre for your quick reply. Now i can able to to login by following the instruction in the red part of the screen..
This also occurs when the setup isn't run during an OVF/OVA deployment and network settings weren't configured. There's usually a (Java?) setup application that runs when deploying the OVA from a vSphere Client. With Player, you probably didn't go through this. This happens for similar OVAs from VMware and others. The setup app looks like the below
All the best,
Mike
