Hi Marco,

Thanks for the prompt response.

I tried "https://yourvcloud.server.url/api/versions" but landed up in error as follows :

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Error parsing media type 'text/html,application/xhtml+xml,image/webp,application/xml; q=0.9,*/*; q=0.8'

knife vc login - gives me 

ERROR: RestClient::ResourceNotFound: 404 Resource Not Found

I also tried configuring URL in the VCloud director as mentioned in the following document but still get the same error.

Thanks.

The url you have configured in your example could be too deep.
Usually you only have to specify vcloud director fqdn listening on https port, without any web-context.
In order to verify the correct url, you should try to list supported api versions from your vcloud director installation (you should receive an xml answer):
https://yourvcloud.server.url/api/versions

For previous example what has to be configured for knife-vcloud is just:
yourvcloud.server.url

You can try the configuration with:
knife vc login

If previous command gives a positive answer please read carefully knife-vcloud Readme for what concerns vcloud login configuration, IDs and names and verify what kind of account you are using:
- when a vcloud OU administrator, you have to specify --org-login parameter
- when a vcloud system administrator, you have to specify --org parameter (see "Browse multiple organizations")

Hope this helps.
Greetings,

I downloaded vcloud plugin from the URL
https://github.com/astratto/knife-vcloud and i setup the configuration using

knife vc configure command

and entered the details below:

URL - 'https://1.1.1.1/abc/cloud/org/abc-lab/'
username - 'karthik'
Password - abc

where 'abc-lab' is the organization name in the vcloud environment. Once the
configuration file is created, I gave the following command,

knife vc org list

and it returned 404 resource not found error. Any help appreciated.
