I think you might be having a confusion-you can not install a 9800-L-C in vm..i guess you are referring 9800-CL. please share-

‘show tech wireless’ from wlc

show power inline <ap interface> from switch

show cdp neighbor <ap interface> detail from switch

And check your WLC config using the Config Analyzer - link below.  You must use the output from "show tech wireless" (not "show tech").  This will highlight many common mistakes and best practices.
