Issue in vim25 WSDL: TaskInfo error has a bad type

  • 1.  Issue in vim25 WSDL: TaskInfo error has a bad type

    Posted Sep 08, 2025 05:16 AM

    Hello,

    I'm using the vim SDK since many years and I had never succeeded to retrieve the error associated to a task in ERROR state. In the VIM25 types WSDL file (vim-types.xsd, version 8.0.3) the field "error" of the complex type "TaskInfo" is associated to type "LocalizedMethodFault".

    Recently I saw in the vCenter mob UI that error was associated to type "MethodFault" so I changed the type in WSDL, regenerated my java library and now I can retrieve the error message!

    Can someone validate that and make a support ticket to VMware software maintenance, I don't know how to do that?

    Thanks. Chris
