[SOLVED] VMware Workstation 7.1.4 fails to start/build on kernel 3.0

Since new kernel 3.0 update I cannot rebuild vmware modules
~ >>> sudo vmware-modconfig --console --install-all
Unable to initialize kernel module configuration
or start the Workstation
~ >>> vmware
Logging to /tmp/vmware-igor/setup-7740.log
Unable to initialize module building library
Does anybody know what's wrong?

Hi, I've been reading these forums since switched from slackware and gentoo to arch about 4 years ago. This is the first time I've been unable to fix a problem from searching here or the wiki
I'm having trouble installing vmware workstation.
So I recompiled the kernel and nvidia linking it to the .0-ARCH.
└⇥ uname -a
Linux myhost 3.0.0-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Aug 10 07:29:07 UTC 2011 x86_64 AMD Turion(tm) 64 X2 Mobile Technology TL-56 AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux
For the rest I followed the wiki to install vmware. Everything goes swimmingly until
└⇥ sudo vmware-modconfig --console --install-all

    Thanks for the info, I already had libcanberra installed. I manually do that after a fresh install so I don't know why the errors show. Anyway I found out I can do this:
    ./VMware-Workstation-Full-10.0.3-1895310.x86_64.bundle --console --eulas-agreed
    pacman -S linux-headers then reboot
    uname -r
    find / -name headers
    Worked after that.

  • After using VMware once, boot camp partition fails to start up

    Start up repair also failed.
    I just installed Windows 7 64-bit onto my brand new macbook pro using boot camp. Everything went fine, I installed the drivers and everything worked perfectly.
    I then installed a couple games (Maplestory and L4D)
    Neither of them worked.
    I went back to Leopard and started up VMware Fusion just to mess around with Windows. Actually, all I did was re-install L4D. L4D started and worked. Surprised, I tried maplestory. It worked as well. Then I curiously restarted in windows. BSOD. Failed to start. Repair failed.
    Someone shed some light?
    EDIT: After restarting a couple more times Windows started. Neither of my games work though, only in VMware. Anyone know why?
    Message was edited by: DxRania

    Actually for me it worked perfectly under Vista Ultimate x64, and yes I do actually get an error it's error -2147467259 (unspecified error)
    Compatibility mode does not work as the new "Hack Shield" prevents this....it thinks I wanna hack the game and just says maplestory will not start in compatibility mode.
    Thanks for your reply by the way
    EDIT: Forgot to say, all the drivers work fine. What bugs me though is that it works in VMware..

  • [SOLVED] - [Gnome 3] GDM error dialog "failed to start session GNOME"

    Hi,
    Just installed Gnome 3 from testing.
    First boot crashed, but that was a missing library for splashy, so removed splash from my grub boot line.
    Now the system boots to GDM. I can start my Xfce session without any issues, but if I select Gnome, I get a dialog "Failed to start session GNOME".
    Following is my GDM greeter log:

    I just remembered to do that.....
    Think I have found my problem.
    The Arch Wiki for Gnome 3 has the line for installing to a new system
    # pacman -Syu testing/gnome
    This installs gnome 3, but does not include gnome-shell or gnome-panel
    Just installing them now. Will report back shortly.
    Maybe the Wiki should be updated to reflect this, or the package testing/gnome updated to depend on gnome-shell and gnome-panel.
    Cheers.

  • VMWare Workstation 10 won't start [solved]

    So, I did a full system update and now VMWare won't start. I applied the netfilter patch on the wiki and that made it so the modules will compile(despite me using the stock kernel I encountered compiler errors). However, now I'm really stuck. When I try to launch vmware it just sits there and never does anything
    This is the output I see:
    [earlz@EarlzWork ~]$ vmware
    Logging to /tmp/vmware-earlz/vmware-modconfig-1186.log

    It will just hang at that command indefinitely, despite all the modules appearing to have loaded fine

    I am experiencing the same issue.  After you run vmware, do you still see the process running but nothing appears on screen?  Do a strace on vmware and let me know what results you obtain.  These are the last few lines of my strace;

    Sorry , I'm just new here
    No worries, and thank you for fixing your post.
    It might help if you tell us how you installed Vmware workstation. Did you follow the wiki?

  • Installing vmware-workstation-6.5.3 with kernel26-2.6.32 walkthrough

    I changed my Fedora 10 laptop to Archlinux 2 weeks ago (and I'm loving it).
    So, I also had to move my vmware-workstation-6.5.3 to my new distro, and also all my virtual machines.
    I followed  the wiki (http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Installing_VMware) but until I had a working vmware, I had to do something different from the instructions.
    So, I post here my walkthrough, if someone needs it.
    Vmware package and kernel:
    - VMware-Workstation-6.5.3-185404.i386.bundle.
    - kernel26-2.6.32.1-1
    1. As root cd to the directory where is VMware-Workstation and follow these steps:
    [root@hp]# mkdir -p /etc/rc.d/vmware.d/{rc{0,1,2,3,4,5,6}.d,init.d}
    [root@hp]# export VMWARE_SKIP_MODULES=true
    [root@hp]# sh VMware-Workstation-6.5.3-185404.i386.bundle --console --custom
    2. Read and accept EULA and go on.
    3. Then press enter to all answers except "System service runlevels", where you must enter /etc/rc.d/vmware/, like in the example:
    Do you agree? [yes/no]: yes
    System path prefix.  Please note that choosing a path other than /usr
    may result in missing icons, application launchers, and other desktop
    integrations [/usr]:
    System lib directory [/usr/lib]:
    Architecture-independent files [/usr/share]:
    User level binaries [/usr/bin]:
    Super user level binaries [/usr/sbin]:
    Documentation [/usr/share/doc]:
    Manual pages [/usr/share/man]:
    Header files [/usr/include]:
    System configuration files [/etc]:
    System service runlevels: /etc/rc.d/vmware.d/       <<--------------------------------
    System service scripts [/etc/rc.d/vmware.d/init.d]:
    Path to Eclipse directory for use with Integrated Virtual Debugger
    (optional):
    The product is ready to be installed.  Press enter to begin
    installation or Ctrl-C to cancel.
    4. Now exit from root and become normal user again. Then run vmware command.
    [memyselfandi@hp]$ vmware
    It asks to compile modules and you must press de "_Install" button.
    After some ERROR messages it asks you the root passord and then it starts to compile modules.
    Finally it starts vmware.
    5. You must close it again and do this as root:
    [root@hp]# ln -s /etc/rc.d/vmware.d/init.d/vmware /etc/rc.d/vmware
    6. Then with your favorite editor, include "vmware" to DAEMONS in /etc/rc.conf to allow vmware modules to load while computer boots:
    # /etc/rc.conf - Main Configuration for Arch Linux
    DAEMONS=(syslog-ng ... ... vmware)
    7. You must substitute /sbin/lsmod with /bin/lsmod in the file /etc/rc.d/vmware/init.d/vmware with your favorite editor or use this command instead:
    [root@hp]# sed -i 's/\/sbin\/lsmod/\/bin\/lsmod/g' /etc/rc.d/vmware.d/init.d/vmware
    8. Restart vmware services and load modules with this command:
    [root@hp]# /etc/rc.d/vmware restart
    9. There is a common mouse problem (it loses focus outside VGA area 640x480) because of GTK+ new version. To avoid this issue, add this line to the end of "/etc/vmware/bootstrap":
    # /etc/vmware/bootstrap
    export VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_GTK=yes
    10. Now you can  start as normal user:
    [memyselfandi@hp]$ vmware
    Or in the gnome menu "System Tools" --> "VMware Workstation"
    I didn't experiment any problems with keycodes. I don't know, but they seem to be solved in 6.5.3 version(?)
    Hope this help someone!

    My vmware install logs don't really help here but they do show where it trails off into oblivion:

    thank you  for  your help

    Then try re-installing the package. (of course as root)
    Seems like a broken / incomplete installation.
    I guess you've got a .bundle file for installing.
    When you want to install, first change in to the directory where the package is located. then write
    chmod +x name-of-file.bundle
    . If that fails, try as sudo.
    Then you type in
    sudo ./name-of-file.bundle
    Replace 'name-of-file' with the true name of your installer file

    EDIT: just figured out that there is a vmware-workstation package in the AUR. Tried it out and works fine.

  • Vmware workstation 6.5.3 64bit Install problems

    I'm having trouble installing the official Vmware Workstation 6.5.3 64bit bundle from vmware.com. The install always hangs at the Vmware Player configuration.
    I've tried both the graphical install, using:
    kdesu sh VMware-Workstation-6.5.3-185404.x86_64.bundle
    and from the command line:
    # sh VMware-Workstation-6.5.3-185404.x86_64.bundle --custom --console
    I see no error messages, and the installers stop at the same place in both instances (configuring Vmware Player). The command line version reports the install to stop at 62%. I've left the install run while I was at work (all day), and nothing changed.
    When I kill the installer using xkill or killall, I am able to use Player (although I can't run any vms in it), but workstation itself is not installed (I have no /usr/bin/vmware binary).
    Any help would be appreciated.
    I'm using kernel 2.6.30-ARCH. I cannot patch the modules because the install does not complete, before you ask.
    Thank you.

  • Issues with Arch 2009.02 in VMware Workstation [SOLVED]

    I installed Arch Linux 2009.02 i686 as a guest in VMware Workstation 6.5.1, my host is Vista x64. The installation of Arch itself and Xorg wasn't a problem although from this point I've had several issues.
    I was unable to 'startx' or 'xinit' without getting crashes, however adding hal to the daemons fixed that problem - some wiki entries state to add dbus, but dbus is already started. A lot of content on the wiki is outdated, telling users to use hwd; I did install hwd separately (from sourceforge) although it gave me hundreds? of errors related to PCI and eventually failure to parse some x configuration binary in /usr/bin.
    Multimedia Issues
    I then installed xfce4 and gstreamer-plugins. All video and audio play back too quickly, i.e. it seems to play the streams as fast as they can decode. This also happens with flash content such as youtube after I'd installed the appropriate programs. Thinking this may be a timing issue, I editted the vmware config file on my Windows host although it did not help; the timing in the VM seemed to be correct anyway.
    Display Issues
    When I run 'startxfce4' from a terminal, Xfce will start as 800x600 - if I go to change this resolution all options show 0Hz as the refresh rate and many options my monitor cannot display are shown even though I have VMware set to allow a maximum size of 1680x1050. I was unable to generate a 'good' xorg.conf file using 'X -configure' and as mentioned earlier, hwd would not work for me. I installed xf86-video-vmware and xf86-video-vesa as well as both open-vm-tools and normal vmware-tools (not at the same time or together) but can't seem to sort this issue. vmware-tools was able to generate a valid xorg.conf file but it only included a handful of 4:3 resolutions and some of these still showed 0hz. For some strange reason 'startx' and 'xinit' now do not work having failed to find /dev/fb0.
    VMware Tools
    When I did try to install vmware-tools, it had many difficulties trying to build the modules - mostly regarding to not recognising __FREEBSD__, I cannot remember the complete error. I also tried to build open-vm-tools but that gave an error about not being able to find libproc even though I had procps installed. Stopping open-vm-tools on shutdown also always fails and occurs twice.
    I'm going to try reinstalling now that I know a little more about what I did to get things working but if anyone could give me a hand it'd be much appreciated.

    After a lot of experimentation I've got a satisfactory installation although a few minor problems remain:
    Adjustments required to correctly run Alsa+Xorg in Arch Linux 2009.02 using VMware Workstation
    The current kernel does not play nicely with alsa, downgrade to kernel26-2.6.29.4-1:
    wget http://www.schlunix.org/archlinux/core/ … pkg.tar.gz
    pacman -U kernel26-2.6.29.4-1-i686.pkg.tar.gz
    Install/Upgrade dbus:
    pacman -Sy dbus
    Add hal (if it's not installed then make sure to do so) to your daemons located in /etc/rc.conf, e.g.
    DAEMONS=(syslog-ng network netfs crond hal)
    The current open-vm-tools-modules is not compatible with the older kernel, instead use open-vm-tools-modules-2009.04.23-1:
    wget http://www.schlunix.org/archlinux/commu … pkg.tar.gz
    pacman -U open-vm-tools-modules-2009.04.23-1
    The installation will prompt you with an error that /etc/modprobe.conf could not be found (as does the current version), add the following to /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf:
    install pcnet32 /sbin/modprobe -q --ignore-install vmxnet; /sbin/modprobe -q --ignore-install pcnet 32 ; /bin/true;
    You can now install open-vm-tools:
    pacman -S open-vm-tools
    To autoload open-vm-tools on start up you need to add it to your daemons located in /etc/rc.conf, e.g.
    DAEMONS=(syslog-ng network netfs crond hal open-vm-tools)
    Add vmware-user to your /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc file if you desire (for seamless mouse and display switching), e.g. my xinitrc with xfce4 ends with:
    vmware-user &
    exec startxfce4
    Install the following components: xf86-video-vmware xf86-video-vesa xf86-input-vmmouse xf86-input-mouse:
    (You will not be able to start x if you have installed xf86-video-fbdev and do not have a valid xorg.conf file, this is addressed later)
    pacman -S xf86-video-vmware xf86-video-vesa xf86-input-vmmouse xf86-input-mouse
    Lastly we need to edit/create the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file to use our vmware drivers, this will enable automatic resolution switching and seamless mouse functionality:
    (All of the following is necessary otherwise X will ignore our vmware drivers)
    Section "ServerFlags"
        Option "AllowEmptyInput" "false"
    EndSection
    Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier  "VMware Mouse"
        Driver      "vmmouse"
        Option "Protocol"         "ps/2"
        Option "Device"           "/dev/input/mice"
        Option "ZAxisMapping"     "4 5"
        Option "Emulate3Buttons"  "true"
    EndSection
    Section "Device"
        Identifier  "VMware SVGA"
        Driver      "vmware"
    EndSection
    Section "ServerLayout"
        Identifier  "VMware Config"
        InputDevice "VMware Mouse" "CorePointer"
    EndSection
    Issues
    * open-vm-tools fails to stop during a shutdown or /etc/rc.d/open-vm-tools stop/restart
    * most screen resolutions show 0Hz (although everything works correctly) and adding VertRefresh to xorg.conf produces a major error
    * playback of flash video produces a sound artefact when starting - although I think this may be to do with the decoder rather than system
    I've marked this as solved although I welcome any suggestions regarding these minor issues. The open-vm-tools one I can probably sort out but it's too late now to look into tonight

  • VCS ova import fails VMware workstation 8

    Hello all,
    I was recently surprised and excited by the release of the virtual VCS and set out installing!!
    Using VMware workstation 8 I imported the VCS ova file, VMware waits for a while then displays a massive agreement screen which cannot be moved to find the agree screen. The only option to remove this massive browser screen is to alt f4, this then ends the import and the VCS installation fails.
    Can anyone please advise if it is possible to run the VCS on workstation 8?
    (ESXI is not an option as I'm attempting to install on a desktop and esxi doesn't recognise IDE and sata as storage)
    I'm really wanting to get this working ASAP for my personal development and testing so any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you

    For production its anyhow the only way to go.
    For labbing,  if you google a bit then you can find how to run esxi under vmware desktop or fusion.
    I would also not exclude that with some modding you could run the ova on other virtualization
    platforms than esxi, but thats anyhow not supported.
    Please remember to rate helpful responses and identify helpful or correct answers.

  • VMware Workstation Verison 6.5.1 Kernel-2.6.28-1-latest HELP[Solved]
