Description

Disclaimer

A custom bug ID has been generated as the vendor did not provide one: e034ecf4ccfb

Overview

When you import local .ovf files containing non-ASCII characters in their name, you might receive 400 Bad Request Error . When you use such .ovf files to deploy a virtual machine in the vSphere Client, the deployment process stops at 0%. As a result, you might receive 400 Bad Request Error or 500 Internal Server Error . To edit the . ovf file, open it with a text editor. Search the non-ASCII .vmdk file name and change it to ASCII. Import or deploy the saved files again.

Workaround

Remove the non-ASCII characters from the .ovf and .vmdk file names
