How to install vmware tools in cucm on Vmware Player

I'm running CUCM 8.0.1 and Unity Connection 8.0.1 on VMWare Player. I need to install the VMWare Tools. I'm using the COP file from the CCO (ciscocm.vmtoolsUpgrade4.1-8.3.2-257589-v14.cop.sgn). However, it's not loading. I Clicked Install VMWare Tools from Player so the CDRom is mounted and has the COP file in it, but I can't seem to get the path. The connection is use physical device /dev/cdrom and I have a burned COP file in the dvd drive. I keep getting "The directory could not be located."
I have NTP enabled and "the NTP Service is accessible"
I tried the Remote File System but keep getting the error: "An unknown error occurred while accessing the upgrade file." I tried different files, e.g. locale file, but get the same error. Is there something else I need to do on the VM? The Host machine is Ubuntu 12.04 32 bit.
Is there a document on this? VMWare Player is ver 6.0. The VMs were built in VMWare server 2.0 a while back.

Thanks for the link. It is for vSphere and I'm using Player so Step 2 is a little different. I choose Virtual Machine>Upgrade VMWare Tools. The settings are set to "use ISO file" and the path is to the linux.iso file.
When I run the 'utils vmtools upgrade' command, it says: "Executed command unsuccessfully, no valid command entered"
Any other procedures to try?

Dear,
Im trying to install prime NCS 1.1 for Vmware ESXİ Hypervisor 5.0 (that is free copy)
I deployed correctly OVA image which i downloaded cisco.com however power on server and then screen is black and work nothing.

I enabled processor virtualization Blade server's BIOS.
NCS 1.1 OVA image is Linux based so i cant install Vmware Tools.during the console wasnt working how i install Vmware Tools and run the server and also NCS 1.1 ??

Emre

Once installed and started successfully (e.g. admin has issued "ncs start" from the console and all services are running, can be verified by issuning "ncs status" also from console command line), the NCS server should be listening on port 443 and thus requires you to access it via https.
See step 2 here.

Hi
You need to restore to the exact version that you backed up from.
Also best to keep your problem in one thread with an accurate description of what you've done rather than open a load of separate ones.

THX FOR YOUR REPLIES

I might be able to answer if you have a specific question, given I have done this on RH3 (which is my development environment). Have been using on both 6i c/s and 10g iDS on Linux for a while.

Why does flash no longer work in viewing SnagFilms or Hulu under Safari Browser but still works for Netflix. And, where can I receive directions on how to install the PPAPI Plug In for Flash Player for Maverick 10.9.4.

Until recently, I was able to watch both SnagFilms and Hulu within the Safari Browser successfully. In both movie sites, I no longer get video and am asked to download Adobe Flash Player (which I already have 14.0.0.125) but my system indicates that Plug-In PPADI has not been installed? Where to go to find this correct download? When consulting with SnagFilms and Hulu, it was recommended that I download and watch in the Chrome Browser, which is successful. However, I don't like the idea that I must run a second browser to do stuff on my Mac. I don't have any issues with watching films under Safari within Netflix. I am so confused. What about the security issues with respect to running google products--do I need to be concerned if this is the only method for accessing my movie sites.

The problem is that your Flash Player is not current. Check this to see what the current version is (vs what you have) and here to get the latest version. There is supposed to be a major security issue in the version you've got so Apple is blocking its use. In any case, don't get Flash Player from anywhere except Adobe.

Can anybody explain me how to install vm tools?
As we know in VM ware we have navigation from file menu >>VM>> install VM tools option available. but in our case with OEL5.9 we are not getting this option why? do i have done anything wrong?

Vmware tools on Cisco Prime Infrastructure

Hi,
Is there a way to install vMware tools on Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.2. I know this can be done on LMS4.2. how about access to the shell like LMS4.2?
Thanks,

This was not preinstalled on ours though the files were there. We found the .gz install in this directory:
/opt/CSCOlumos/tempInstallFiles
we copied the the file to tmp:
ade# cp /opt/CSCOlumos/tempInstallFiles/VMwareTools-8.6.5-621624.tar.gz /tmp
changed to that directory and unzipped the file
ade# tar zxvf VMwareTools-8.6.5-621624.tar.gz
and installed the file
ade# cd vmware-tools-distrib
ade# ./vmware-install.pl
and it is now running

NB100 - How to install Windows 7 without CD drive

Hi. I wondering if some one knows how to install Windows 7 whit out a CD player.
I have an external HDD.
Is it posibel to do a image on that one to boot from?

I'm typing this on an NB100 (Upgraded to 2GB of RAM) running Windows 7 RC .
Make sure to update your BIOS to the latest version (1.9 I think) and then you can mount the Windows 7 .iso as a virtual drive using Daemon Tools in XP and run it and do a clean install.
Windows 7 will back up all your documents, music, videos etc in a folder called Windows.old and it will find all the new drivers you need all by itself (at least it did for me). If I remember correctly the only one I had to install again was the Bluetooth Stack.
All the Toshiba drivers and manuals etc will still be on your hard drive too, I think they're all stored on a small separate partition, which I think is pretty neat.
It took me a while cus I did as much research and reading up as I could beforehand but in the end it was really easy. Shouldn't take you more than an hour really.
Windows 7 is also running pretty damn well too. The only problem I have is that sometimes the taskbar disappears after the screensaver has been running, but a friend of mine is having the same problem on his Samsung netbook.

Networking on Ubuntu VM stopped functioning after latest VMWare tools upgrade

when configuring the latest VMWare tools, I receive the following error:
"The vmxnet driver is no longer supported on kernels 3.3 and greater. Please upgrade to a newer virtual NIC. (e.g., vmxnet3 or e1000e)"
I have followed instructions on a few different posts to try to fix this, and none have worked.
I have tried running the vmware tools configuration script with --clobber-kernel-modules=vmxnet - that didn't help.
I tried changing ethernet0.virtualDev = "vmxnet" to "vmxnet3" in the .vmx file - that didn't help either.

VMware tools installation fails

Hi,
I decided to try out Arch Linux in VMware Player before installing it on my system. The installation so far has gone well but I can't succeed in installing the VMware tools services. During installation I get several errors and warnings. These are the errors:
depmod: ERROR: Module 'hci_vhci' has devname (vhci) but lacks major and minor information. Igonring.
The above error seems not to be critical. But then I get another error when stopping Thinprint and VMware tools though all activities complete successfully:
sh: : command not found
sh: : command not found
Then I get the following errors at the end of the installation:
depmod: ERROR: Module 'hci_vhci' has devname (vhci) but lacks major and minor information. Igonring.
Warning: This script could not find mkinitrd or update-initramfs and cannot remake the initrd file!

I have Linux kernel 3.13.5-1-ARCH (x64) on VMware Player 6.0.1 build-1379776 running atop Debian 7 with kernel 3.12.0.bpo.1-amd64. I have also the latest version of VMware tools.

I uninstalled the VMware Tools that I had before. Then I installed wget and ran:
wget https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/vm/vmware-tools/vmware-tools.tar.gz
tar -xvzf vmware-tools.tar.gz
cd vmware-tools
makepkg -s --asroot
pacman -U vmware-tools.pkg.tar.xz
exit
umount /mnt
reboot
No errors were reported but unfortunately it doesn't work. If I run ifconfig, I can only see the loopback interface. VMware Player doesn't detect any version of VMware Tools installed.
