VMWare tools install for MeetingPlace 8.0.1 App Server
So, this may seem like a non-trivial task. Install VMWare tools in a Virtual environment? Couldn't be easier, unfortunately I have run into issues with installing VMWare tools in the MeetingPlace Application Server. This server runs RHEL 4 but when installed it is setup under Windows Server 2003. So, once powered on the server runs RHEL 4 but VM sees it as a Windows 2003 server and does not contain that tar.gz file in the VMWare Tools install folder.
This is starting to give me a headache as it should be a simple task but I cannot figure it out. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Running vCenter 4.1.
Cisco Unified MeetingPlace 8.0.1 Application Server.
-Runs with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.
-Virtual Client setup as Windows Server 2003, the only way that the OS would install.
- When VMWare Tools datastore is mounted the only files available are for Windows, not Linux.
Any ideas?

Aaron,
The install guide that I followed on the Cisco Support page (here) instructed me to do it that way, also that is the only way that I could get the OS to mount in the VM. As for the normal way of doing things, I am unsure, I've only been working with MeetingPlace for about a week and have installed it twice now with this being the only method that worked for me.
I tried navigating through the datastore but couldn't ever find the vmimages folder, may not have gone high enough. I then tried changing the Guest OS and was able to get it back up and running. Once it was running you were spot on, there it is.
Thank you for the help,
Nick

VMWare Tools install still blocked with 10.5(1)
I just upgraded CUCM and CUCX from 9.1 to 10.5(1) and ran into the issue described in CSCul78735 so it doesn't appear completely fixed. I wasn't able to upgrade VMWare Tools until setting SELinux to permissive mode.
Hi Gagarin,
I have recently upgraded 5 servers to 10.5.2.11900-3. With 2 servers I tried updating the VMware tools automatically through the vSphere client. The result was that the VMware tools were uninstalled from the VM. With the other 3 servers I selected the interactive install and used the 'utils vmtools refresh' command. Updating the tools on these 3 servers was successful. On the 2 servers that were not successful I am unable to use the 'utils vmtools refresh' command because I get a message stating "No VMware Tools install currently exists on the system...restart the system..." but after multiple reboots VMware tools still do not reinstall. I have set the 'utils os secure permissive" but that has not helped. The tools have now been uninstalled and I can not find a method to reinstall without TAC. TAC could probably install from root but instead has only emailed and recommended that I install a mystery COP file but they have not provided information on where I can locate a COP file for 10.5 and I believe that is because there is not a COP file available. If you would still like to troubleshoot this issue please let me know.
For others looking to upgrade the VMware tools I recommend the approach of using the 'utils vmtools refresh' command from the cli. -
Has anyone successfully installed vmware-tools on arch? im curious if just symlinking /etc/rc.{multi,single} to /etc/rc.0-6 is sufficient to get passed that question in the script?
ah ok,

ln -s rc.d/ rc5.d
ln -s rc.d/ rc4.d
ln -s rc.d/ rc3.d

next problem i run into is it fails to stop vmware tools services which has never been run in the first place : any ideas?
more info this is vmware workstation 5.5.1 build-19175, arch 7.1 xorg7 kde3.5 ive checked other postings here nothing related to what im seeing when trying to run vmware-config-tools

sh: /etc/vmware-tools: is a directory
Making sure services for VMware Tools are stopped.
Unable to stop services for VMware Tools

It sets up those folders and other stuff for vmware workstation 5.5 and may help you.
If Archlinux is running as a vmware guest system, did you install X ? -
Vmware tools installed but not working.
I installed vmware 9.0.2 from pacman and also installed vmware-tools but when I fire up windows xp (for brittanica encyclopedia) in vmware it asks me to download & install vmware tools,
1. When i've already installed it with pacman ( it contained tools for freebsd, linux, windows etc. ), why is vmware wants to install it again ?
2. When vmware asks to download & install vmware-tools, it downloads but gives error that "A software conponent failed to installed..." basically it fails to install.
3. How to get vmware-tools working ?
How to solve this problem ?Make sure you are in bridged mode, not host only.

Configure security realm for external Access Manager in App server 8.1
Hi All,
I would like to protect my j2ee application using access manager running on an external host.
I would like to configure the security realm in Sun app Server 8.1 for the external Access Manager
external host & port of AM is:
http://svrd234d.dnn.com.au:58765
Please verify if these are the correct settings for the agentRealm configuration on Sun App server 8.1.
classname="com.sun.amagent.as.realm.AgentRealm"
property name="jaas-context" value="agentRealm"
property name="base-dn" value="ou=People,dc=dnn,dc=com,dc=au"
property name="hostURL " value="http://svrd234d.dnn.com.au:58765"Did you download AS8.1 agent under http://www.sun.com/download/products.xml?id=4266924d?
If you can unjar am_as81_agent_2_1.jar after installing the J2EE agent, you will find AgentRealm.class under com.sun.amagent.as.realm.
Please also note that page 161 of J2EE agent guide shows how to disable AgentRealm to better fit your agent policy mode. Check it out http://docs-pdf.sun.com/816-6884-10/816-6884-10.pdf

Kodo-ds.xml: how to use for two database in same app server?
hi,
i meet a problem: i have two applications in the same app server(one app

PersistenceManagerFactory with jndi name. When i figure the two jidi name
for two "<tx-connection-factoy>" in the root element
"<connection-factories>" in the kodo.ds.xml. That's unavailable!
eg:
<connection-factories>
<tx-connection-factoy>
<!-- specify the the first database connection properties with jndi name A
-->
</tx-connection-factoy>
<tx-connection-factoy>
<!-- specify the the SECOND database connection properties with jndi name
B -->
</tx-connection-factoy>
</connection-factories>
THAT'S MY CONFIGURATION. UNAVALIABLE NOW.... Who can help me solve this
problem?
thx!You should deploy multiple kodo-ds.xml files (i.e. kodo-ds-oracle.xml).

Is there a JCA adapter for Oracle for use in any J2EE app server
Anyone know if Oracle actually produce a JCA adapter for integrating with Oracle databases from any application server?
Or if any other vendor produces such an adapter?
I can't find any reference to a standalone distribution of such an adapter on the oracle website.
We are not using the Oracle App server, just want a JCA that can plug into our JCA compliant server and be able to call services and generate events from an oracle database.
thanks

Any idea what I should be doing?I have the same problem on ESXI 5.5 for over a month now, tried the patches, tried the LTS kernel which others say results in an immediate result without patches, nothing seems to work and nobody seems to be able to offer a solution.
Did you make any progress ??

Is it ok to install VMware Tools onto vWLC appliances?
I have two vWLC appliances which I've noticed don't have vmware tools installed by default. Is there a reason for this or am I ok to install it? I'd also like to keep all my VM's on vmx9 but am not sure how this will affect the appliance.
Is there any guidance on this anywhere from Cisco?From Cisco's perspective our vWLC is just like any other VM running on hypervisor. So installing VMWare tools is no issue. You can install.
There is no guidance from cisco on install vmware tools and you should check with VMWare support.
-Thanks

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.
Running Ubuntu 14.04 on VMWare Player 6.0.6 build-2700073 on Windows 7. The VM image in question is Ubuntu 14.04 on Linux kernel 1.13.0-43.
This is for bridged mode (which I need) - running in NAT mode works fine.

You can now run VMware Tools by invoking "/usr/bin/vmware-toolbox-cmd" from the
command line.
To enable advanced X features (e.g., guest resolution fit, drag and drop, and
file and text copy/paste), you will need to do one (or more) of the following:
1. Manually start /usr/bin/vmware-user
2. Log out and log back into your desktop session; and,
3. Restart your X session.

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!
depmod: ERROR: Module 'hci_vhci' has devname (vhci) but lacks major and minor information. Igonring.

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.
