are you using the desktop or server install? I am unclear why Ubiquity wouldn't work, as that uses the old preseed file format; the server uses Subiquity, and to my...

More info, please! What version of vSphere are you using? (6.0, 6.5, 6.7, etc). And, 2.0 was refactored to use packer > 1.2.0; I'm not sure if it requires that,...

Packer version 1.3.1, packer-builder-vsphere version 2.0. Having the same issue now, and the builder doesn't report anything particularly useful. recently upgraded to vSphere 6.7, appears to be erroring consistently now....

Issue persists with Packer 1.3.3 and builder v2.1, and being granted full administrator access. So, it appears that something in the vSphere 6.7 API changed, and is breaking the builder...

Still erroring on packer 1.4.0 and vsphere-iso 2.1. @dkirrane you need vSphere 6.5 and higher for boot_commands (and this builder) to work at all, I believe. @mkuzmin any updates or...

@gowthamakanthan Because Ubuntu Server starts with boot args there already; please check the examples in the repo or gaui's boot command upthread. It's a bit different than CentOS. :) My...

Looks like a couple of separate things here. The vsphere-iso builder has a `"convert_to_template": "boolean"` option that you can set to create a template, or not, inside the builder block....

@frunzales you can do both of those already, by specifying `"convert_to_template": true` and `"folder": "path/to/desired/folder"` in the builder stanza

Packer does IIRC remove all CD-ROM devices when the build is finished, or at least this builder does, but only if you don't convert it to a template.
