CentOS 5 :: VMware Server 2.0.1 On 5.3 Has Tainted Kernel - Can't Access VM Web Interface?

Apr 26, 2009

I can install VMware Server 2.0.1 on CentOS 5.3 (32-bit and 64-bit) perfectly. However, I can't access Server's web interface by going to port 8222 on the machine's IP address. When CentOS 5.3 (32 or 64-bit) is loading, I am greeted with this message "VM communication interface socket family: vsock: no version for "VMCIDatagram_Send" found: kernel tainted." I assume this is the reason why I can't access my Server through a web browser. How do I correct this? Is there a package I need to install on CentOS prior to installation of Server 2.0.1?

It's strange, because I can install 2.0.1 on Ubuntu Server 8.10 with absolutely no problem and access its web interface. So I think this might be a CentOS-specific issue I've uncovered.

CentOS 5 Server :: Cannot Access VMware Via Infrastructure Web Access

May 9, 2011

I've recently installed CentOS 5, because I needed a good OS to run VMware Server. Just a heads up, I'm not very familiar with RH/CentOS distros, I usually use Arch Linux. My VMware install went fine, config is standard settings. Now I'm trying to access the VMware Infrastructure Web Access using port 8222 (http) and 8333 (https), but it's a no go. I'm connecting from another machine on the LAN, as the CentOS box is headless. I restarted the vmware services, and they seem to be launching fine. I don't know much about VMware though. I verified with netstat and ports 8222 and 8333 are listening.

CentOS 5 :: VMWare Workstation No Longer Works Since Kernel 2.6.18-164.11.1.el5?

Feb 1, 2010

I have an Intel i7 with CentOS x64 installed, with the intention of using it as the host O/S with VMWare Workstation to run a number of virtual machines. I had this all working until the kernel was updated to 2.6.18-164.11.1.el5, Now I can no longer start any VMs. I have tried reinstalling CentOS, updating it first, then installing VMWare Workstation - no different. I have tried running as root - no different.

Is anyone else aware of this problem? Does anyone else run VMWare on CentOS x64?

CentOS 5 :: Vmware-tools Saying Kernel Headers Don't Match / Why Is So?

Jul 4, 2010

2.6.18-194.8.1.el5xen is the reported kernel that I'm running while the headers that are installed are listed as 2.6.18-194.8.1.el5-i686. I assume these are the same, or at least close enough that it shouldn't matter.

However, when I run vmware-config-tools.pl to configure it it says it cannot find the kernel headers. I've tried pointing it to /usr/src/2.6.18-194.8.1.el5-i686/ and /usr/src/2.6.18-194.8.1.el5-i686/include (not sure which of the two I'm supposed to do as online instructions contradict one another) it says that is invalid and there seems to be no way to force it since it just complains without letting me use it anyway. What can I do? Running centos 5 btw on vmware workstation 7.

CentOS 5 :: How To Access Router's Interface

Jun 22, 2010

I have my centos server behind a Linksys router. I'd like to access the router's web interface to open and close certain ports. How do I access the router's interface ?

Prior to this, I had a windows machine. I could type in the router's IP in 192.168.1.1 in the browser and get access to the interface.

How do I go about now ?

I just installed a fresh CentOS 5.2 32bit system. I used "The Perfect Server" server document from Howtoforge and went through those steps and then added Webmin administration console.

CentOS 5 Server :: Building VMWare Virtual Machines From CentOS Mail Servers?

Oct 12, 2010

I have a few mail servers, a mail log server and a web server running on Centos 5. Now I have a task: to avoid accidental crashes on the production servers while installing updates, my boss asked me to do clones (these clones will all be VMware virtual machines) of the servers (EXCLUDING the actual e-mails and log contents) and then to run those clones on VMWare Server. This way, first I will install and test updates on the clones and - if they will be running without crashes - I will apply the updates on the real production servers themselves.

I have already installed VMWare Server 2.0 I have a few questions: How do I build the virtual machines to exclude the actual mail files and mail logs? Can I use VMware Converter for this purpose, or do I have to use another program? How do I actually do this cloning? Is there a tutorial on how to do this?

CentOS 5 :: Unable To Install Centos 5.5 X86_64 On Vmware Server 2.0.2?

Nov 6, 2010

I have an i5 Thinkpad running Windows 7 64-bit. VT is enabled in the BIOS. I have installed vmware server v 2.0.2 but am unable to install Centos 5.5 x86_64 as a guest OS. The steps that I followed are as follows:1. Created a new VM, specifying RHEL 5 64-bit as the intended guest OS (per vmware documentation - Centos is not available as a selection2. Downloaded all 8 iso files for Centos v5.5 64-bit3. Modified the CD/DVD drive to 'connect at power' and use an iso with the path pointing to the x86_64 iso 1 of 8When I power up the VM, the console window displays 'ISOLINUX 3.11 2005-09-02 Copyright (C) 1994-2005 H. Peter Anvin' and nothing else. The installation splash screen never appears. As a test, I downloaded the first of 7 iso files for the 32-bit version of Centos 5.5 and pointed the CD/DVD drive to that iso. In that case, the installation starts as expected. I would really like to get the 64-bit version installed and running.

Fedora :: VMWare Web Server - Can't Access Tomcat On Port 8080 From The Outside World

Jul 29, 2009

I am having trouble getting my FC10 with tomcat visible to the outside world. first off i am somewhat new to linux. I am running vmware workstation to host my linux web server. i have my VMWare setup to use my second NIC solely. it is bridged and the tcp/ip is disable from the host. i can ping the ip address but cant access tomcat on port 8080 from the outside. i can hit it fine from inside fedora. i have configured my router (wrt54gs with DD-WRT firmware) for port forwarding. so basically i think that the problem is somewhere in between the host and the vmware configuring allowing the port to be forwarded through.

Server :: Unable To Access Graphical User Interface

Jun 20, 2011

I have a Linux mail server (Fedora). This server was set up long before i joined this organization. Now I have these issues I would request assistance:

1. I am not able to access the Graphical User Interface(gui) on this machine. Startx does not work. I have also tried using combination keys alt+ctrl+f...keys but no progress. As a result am not bale to do some tasks.

2. The clamav that is on the machine has since become outdated. Efforts to update it to latest versions have failed. How do i get to update clamav and protect my system?

3. Because of not being able to access the gui as well as the inability to update clamav have led to my server apparently sending spam mail which in turn have led to my public ip being black listed in a number of sites. Now how can i secure this server so that it stops sending the spam mail and hence avoid future blacklisting?(NB am using postfix and the server sits behind a router which connects to the Internet)

4. I have observed that the server has some iptables rules set but everytime the server restarts the rules stop. I have to manually restart them again to run. How do I sort this?

CentOS 5 :: Timedrift In Vmware Server?

Jun 25, 2010

Be it with different options to grub.conf... different options to vmware .vmx file ...

Configuration: host box that have an Intel Quad Core CPU Q8300.

Host is CentOS 5.5 64bit, VmWare 1.0.10, guests are CentOS 5.5 32bit (and an Ipcop test box that have 2.4.x kernel)

Considering the 3 CentOS 5.5 32 bit guests (same config for grub and ntpd), I have 1 VM that usually havent' any timedrift, the remaining 2 VMs gain about 15 mins every hour (!!!). constantly, indipendently from load or Similar problem for the IpCop VM.

I need to disable ntpd daemon and put a cron job because ntpd seems not work (but manual ntpdate work, so no fw problem). Sometime is one of the VM that have no driftime problem; after some host reboot, is another. No matter how I configure it (apparently). The VM's hwclock have little or no drift, the system clock have the drift ... I can't find any logic on this ... Some months ago I use Vmware Server 2.x, but switched to 1.x for the annoyng glib problem and the not appreciated new interface. Initially no problems, next (little time before updating the host from 5.4 to 5.5), problems started ... so no apparent ralations with update from 5.4 to 5.5.

CentOS 5 :: Vmware Server 1.0.9 Won't Start After Upgrade

I performed a system update yesterday to CentOS version 5.4. Now I cannot get vmware to start. I get the error "VMware Server is installed, but it has not been (correctly) configured for the running kernel. To (re-)configure it, invoke the following command: /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl." I tried running vmware-config but that did not resolve the issue. I saw the bug related to 2.0.x (after the update), but that does not seem to apply to 1.0.9.

General :: Vmware Server 2.0.2 Installation On 12 - Making Sure Services For VMware Server Are Stopped

May 19, 2010

I have installed fc12 on my core2due machine, and I have installed the vmware server on it, its rpm is installed successfully with out any error, after that a message is displayed

The installation of VMware Server 2.0.2 for Linux completed successfully. You can decide to remove this software from your system at any time by invoking the following command: "rpm -e VMware-server".

Before running VMware Server for the first time, you need to configure it for your running kernel by invoking the following command: "/usr/bin/vmware-config.pl".

I tried this command and find the this message

[Akram@localhost Downloads]$ su -c "/usr/bin/vmware-config.pl" Password: Making sure services for VMware Server are stopped.

None of the pre-built vmmon modules for VMware Server is suitable for your running kernel. Do you want this program to try to build the vmmon module for your system (you need to have a C compiler installed on your system)? [yes] yes

Using compiler "/usr/bin/gcc". Use environment variable CC to override.

Your kernel was built with "gcc" version "4.4.2", while you are trying to use "/usr/bin/gcc" version "4.4.3". This configuration is not recommended and VMware Server may crash if you'll continue. Please try to use exactly same compiler as one used for building your kernel. Do you want to go with compiler
"/usr/bin/gcc" version "4.4.3" anyway? [no] yes

What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running kernel?[/usr/src/linux/include]

Now it asks me in last lines that "What is the location of Directory of C header files that match your running kernal?"

CentOS 5 :: VMware Server Only Detects 1 Of 2 Quad Core CPU?

Jan 22, 2010

Sadly, I google'd the heck out of this and even the vmware community has no answers. So, I decided to turn to the experts and see if you can provide a better solution than [URL]. The system sees both CPU's and all of the cores (cat /proc/cpuinfo). I have tried with HT and without HT (I never run HT anymore; seems to hurt performance in my workloads). I've tried the recent and newest kernels for CentOS 5.4 and still have no luck. There seems to be lots of people having this issue, but no real solutions.
