i downloaded Vmware Workstation 7 onto my Windows XP PC and i have tested the os on a HP laptop so the OS is fine, well back to the point i load it up and VMware has a error saying it can not find "C:/Documents/allusers/applicationdata/" something like that ill add a picture so you will see.
i installed an rebooted and i still get this problem.
I have a Windows 7 OS running VMWare workstation and have used a 11.2 OpenSusie distro to install OPenSusie in one of the VMWare environments. Looking in file manager I see all the 'usual' folders, but the CD-Rom is 'pointing' to the iso mounted CD - ie the virtual one. How do I open/mount the real CD/DVD and also how do I access the files in Win7.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been trying to install VMware workstation 7.1.4- but I've run into a problem. Due some bugs i've had to install vmware a couple of times. Now one time I removed /etc/vmware before uninstalling it. This might be stupid but after I've done this vmware wouldn't uninstall anymore. It would say that there where instances of vmware running though I've never even been at the point that I ran vmware. The installer would say that vmware was already installed so it wouldn't install either. Now I've removed as much vmware files as I could find. But now if I run
Code:
sudo sh vmware-workstation-full-7.1.4-385536.i386.bundle
It wil say
Quote:
Extracting VMware Installer...done.
And then nothing. It will just silently quit. It doesn't give an error, it doesn't start the installer GUI, it will just quit. Now I suspect there are vmware files somewhere that confuse the installer but I've no idea if this is true or where these files are. how to completly wipe any vmware-workstation file from my computer as if vmware was never installed?
EDIT: if I run sh vmware-workstation-full-7.1.4-385536.i386.bundle -r, it will show the installer again but show that vmware is already installed

I have installed the latest version of Ubuntu Linux (11.04) into latest VMware workstation (7.1.4 build-385536). I have tried to install the VMware tools ISO that came with VMware workstation but It didn't work and the installation seemed real sloppy anyways.
I installed the open VMware tools from synaptic within the guest linux and restarted, everything seemed to have been installed just fine but VMware Workstation doesn't detect it. I'm not sure if the tools are outdated, silent errors happened, or if any manual post installation steps need to be taken.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI tested 11.04 beta 1 on one of my computers and was happy to see VmWare workstation 7.1.4 to work fine on it. Then I decided to upgrade my most frequently used computer to 11.04 beta 2, but I can't get VMware to work properly. When I click on some of the function button such as start a VM or maybe change a setting VMware just closes. I can't figure it out, I've tried it with Unity, Gnome with effects, Gnome without. Nouveau driver, Distro nVidia driver, downloaded nVidia driver, and VGA driver. It was nothing to do with Video driver, but that is about the only hardware difference with the other machine that works, it has Intel Video.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI keep installing Debian Workstation Player on Debian, but it just doesn't open. I think it might have something to do with the VMware kernel modules not being built or something. How can I start troubleshooting this? Also, why isn't VMware packaged? Has no one tried packaging it yet, or is there a more complex reason?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm using Fedora Core 12 quad-core Linux box. However, when I run VMWare Workstation (running a single virtual XP box, running nothing) it slows to a crawl. The load average jumps from 0.11 to 4 or even 7 when I am using the virtual box. The mouse stops responding within the virtual box, and even on Fedora itself when the load average gets high enough. I can't get any work done and I can't get into "the zone".

I'm having an issue with Vmvware workstation on Ubuntu 11.04. Well, I had many issues, but most of them have workarounds. I can't find any info on this issue. When I have multiple displays enabled (nvidia prop) and launch workstation 7.1.4, my second monitor will become disabled. The unity menu will also stretch out and basically the computer becomes unusable. I have to restart.

I want to run a mail server from within debian linux guest with vmware workstation xp host. The setup is a bridged network connection
Here are things that need to be done:
a)Configure the Guest with a static IP on my home network. Verify that I can telnet to port 25 of the Guest from a system on my home network.
b)Then configure my home firewall/NAT box to forward incoming connections on TCP port 25 to the static IP address I gave my Guest. Then test that I can telnet to port 25 from a system outside my home network.
c)After that I need to configure the appropriate DNS records for my domain so that outside hosts know how to contact my mailserver.

How to do Step by Step to connect the network using VMware WorkStation!
Im using fedora 13 x64 install from DVD. Has anyone else found problems using vmware 7.0.1 or 7.1. My bridged networking will not pickup a dhcp address, and even if I configure static my network will still not work, yet NAT works fine. Even configuring bridged to use a dedicated device doesnt work. Workstation worked fine on Fedora 12 but this seems to be a reoccuring problem in every other release.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have several questions regarding installation of Ubuntu 9.10 on top of VMWare Workstation:
1) can the Ubuntu .iso be on a memory stick, or does it need to be burned to a CD, for installation on top of VMWare ??
2) VMWare workstation sits on top of Windows 7, 64 bit. Am I best off with 64 bit Ubuntu or will the 32 bit install suffice ? I am not doing anything performance heavy with Ubuntu, I am just playing with it to become more familar. I've heard such great things.
I have a machine with Ubuntu Server and VMware Workstation 7 installed. I have tried NAT port forwarding to gain Remote Desktop access to a Windows virtual machine, but it did not work for whatever reason. I've done this by editing the nat.conf file in the /etc/vmware/vmnet8/nat directory. Unfortunately it still does not work. Also, I would like to ask if it is possible to port forward using the virtual machine itself and not the host.
