Problem description

Backup proxy and Linux Cloud cache, when deployed through OVA, fails to power on.

This error occurs if you use an HTML5 web client for proxy deployment.

Error: Property 'j. Proxy Type' must be configured for the VM to power on

Resolution

Option 1

  • Log in to vCenter - Select the VM

  • Goto to Configure Tab - Settings - Click vApp Options

  • Edit the'j.proxy type' field under Web Proxy Settings to HTTP.

Option 2:If Option 1 fails then try the following

  • Perform the deployment again and you'd need to select HTTP in the 'j.proxy type' field under Web Proxy Settings as a value even if there is no web proxy.
