Hi,

I deleted the old wizard, installed the modified one. I had to change the rights on the getguests.pl:
chown apache.apache /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/configwizards/vmware/scripts/getguests.pl
chmod 755 /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/configwizards/vmware/scripts/getguests.pl
And i still have no services created. Is the link http://support.nagios.com/forum/downloa ... php?id=735 pointing on the correct version ?

Did the wizard successfully apply the configuration? Perhaps the wizard did not apply configuration due to the fact it doesn't clean the VM names for illegal characters like ' or | . Is it saying configuration successfully applied?

Yes, it behaves like everything is good but is creating nothing.

Does it create a host at all? Have you already created a host at this address before? Either way check for an already created ESX host at this address. If so wipe it and try to re-add the new host.

The host was existing as it was monitored. So i deleted it and recreated it to monitore its VMs.
Now the Wizard prompts configuration errors about illegal characters in the VMs'name.
Correcting the names in the Nagios Core. Everything works !
