Two options here:

2. change the port from installation - client server installation

Are you trying to install this on the vCenter server?  The stand-alone needs its own server for installation as both vCenter and Converter both have web components.

yes i am trying to install same server where vcenter was installed ,so what should i do now ? shall i change port number if yes then what should i keep

[kjb007]

You will either need to change the ports to something unused, or create another vm, and run converter there.  I prefer the 2nd method, and have a separate vm for my converter server.

I installed vCenter Converter Standalone (client/server) on one of our vCenter-serveres with the following ports:

9180 HTTP

9181 HTTPS

9182 Agent

I than connected to the vCenter Converter-server from my PC by specifying the port (see image). Seems to work ;-)

Thanks. It works for me.

It occurred with me, but I realized that VMware Workstation, installed in my laptop, uses this same port. So, I opened the Windows Services and stopped all VMware Workstation services. After I was able to install the vCenter Converter without problem.
