Downloadable Appliance Error During Deployment

jasonboche · Post by **jasonboche** » Fri Feb 17, 2012 3:37 pm

I've downloaded the .OVA version of the Zimbra appliance 3 different times, 3 different computers, and each time I cannot deploy on vSphere 5. I end up with an error that says "uNABLE TO ACCESS FILE: e:CA-6.0.13.406-412056-disk1.vmdk.gz. Unable to load DLL "zlib1.dll': The specified module could not be found".
See attachment.
I am able to import the appliance into vSphere 5 using the http location.
If you have any advice on getting around the error with the downloadable appliance, I'd appreciate it.
Thank you,

Jas

sounds like vpshere client's issue.
this vsphere client is from the DVD or downloaded from vcenter 5?
try the other one from what you're currently using and let us know the result.

I had a similar issue. You can download the zlib1.dll from http://zlib.net

Download it from the link I provided and put it in the c:windowssystem32 folder on the same system that your viClient software is installed.
