• Cannot install VMware Player 6.0.2 when username contains apostrophe

  I tried to install VMware Player 6.0.2 in a Windows 8.1 Professional 64-bit o/s.

  I kept getting "Error in Script" (see image below).

  After some research, I found the cause of the problem.  This is because the user name contains an apostrophe.  In some countries, it is normal to have an apostrophe in the name, such as Joan of arc.  For the problem of confidentiality, I don't mention the true name in my case, so let's say it's Joan of arc.  In this problem, the path to "index.htm" is

  C:\users\Jeanne d'Arc\AppData\Local\Temp\vmware_xxxxxxx\index.htm

  Then I created another user name "Joan of Arc".  I used this new account to run Setup again and I didn't have the 'Script error '.  It is so clear to me that the apostrophe in user name (and therefore in the path of the file) has been the cause of the problem.

  

  I suspect that this problem can also occur for the installation of VMware Workstation.

  As a result of my post:

  This problem happens

  • VMware Player 6 and 7
  • VMware Workstation 10 and 11

  But it is FIXED in

  • VMware (Workstation) 12 player
  • VMware Workstation Pro 12

  Thumbs up!  VMware!

  The questions is most likely the character in the temporary path to your username.  Change your folder environment variable a short path (for example, C:\Temp) without special characters, and then try again.

• Cannot install VMWare Player

  I decided to dip my toe in the water and go try VMWare Player, but I seem to have encountered a small problem of EEG. I downloaded the file .bundle (version 5.0.2) and when I try to launch it I get the message Windows cannot open the file and guests for me to find a program to open the file with.

  I'm under that Windows 7 Professional 64 bit if that can help.

  Thanks in advance people.

  Hello, welcome to communities

  the .bundle is setup for Linux.

  You need to download the Windows Installer, which is a .exe

  Find it here: download VMware Player 5

  And choose VMware Player for Windows 32-bit and 64-bit

• Cannot install VMWare tools on first installation of VMW Player for Windows

  Y at - it a tip to install VMWare Tools on VMW Player for Windows.  Tried as a Player 7.1.1 and 6.0.5.

  I downloaded the "darwin" and "windows versions" of tools with version management for versions of reader (for Player 6.05 6.05 tools).  But I don't know how to get VMWare to see downloaded files.  I connected the darwin.iso in the folder of the payload for the CD/DVD drive under settings of the virtual computer.

  I always get a dialog box with this message when I select install VMWare Tools in the menu:

  "Cannot find component on the update server. Contact VMware Support or your system administrator. »

  If you have the appropriate iso image attached to the guest, you have no need to use the "Install VMware Tools" menu - it's all that.  Go to comments and run the installation from the CD-ROM drive.

• "Easy Install cannot install VMware tools"

  As I began to create a virtual machine for Ubuntu 12.10, VMware Player displays a message indicating that it recognizes this OS and install it and VMware Tools with Easy Install. "Good idea," I thought to myself 'I am all in favor of easy'.

  And the installation went great, until VMware Player try to install VMware Tools. This is where the process has frozen and not exceeded. Now, whenever I try to start my VM the screen says "install VMware Tools... Please wait. »

  How can I fix?

  Personally speaking General and I use Easy Install, especially with the Linux Distros!   With some Easy Install distributions do not properly size the volume/boot, causing issues later during the upgrade of nuclei.  I don't like what he does with it two CD/DVD of configuration and how it leaves things when doing even if it can be cleaned manually to the top.

  I recommend not to use is installed and instead select "I will install the operating system later" and then create a manual installation of the Linux operating system and then install VMware Tools then.

• Cannot install Flash Player as "only one version of this application can run.

  I had problems with Flash Player earlier today and decided to uninstall it (from Windows 7) and reinstall from scratch.  I uninstalled and tried to reinstall it but now I get the following message appears: cannot install Flash Player as "only one version of this application can run" I tried to uninstall I checked to see if there was still a program to install but it does not exist. I checked my files in Windows and there are several files called Install_Flashplayer _16x32... files. I assume that they are created whenever I tried to install Flash Player.  I thought to delete many files install FlashPlayer but decided to ask for help before taking this step.

  Browser: Firefox 35.0.1

  Windows 7 Home Premium

  64 bit OS

  I managed to install Flash Player and it works. I deleted all the installation files except one who did not want to be deleted, then I started to install Flash Player, until I got the message about the conflicting demands. I then used the Ctrl + Alt + Delete to open the Task Manager, then closed all tasks except the Flash Player one. Flash Player finished the installation. Then, I opened a TV Player in Firefox and was able to play a program that requires a Flash Player.

  Why don't I have to use the Task Manager to close applications. I don't remember the last time that I used it ut think that it was a year ago, when my computer would not shut.

• Problem installing VMware Player

  I wanted to install VMware Player for some time, but whenever I tried to install it on my computer, I found a bug in the installation script.

  Immediately after you click 'Next' on the "Installation of VMware Player" screen, I get a "script error":

  > > > > > > > > > > > > > >

  An error has occurred in the script on this page.

  Line: 871

  > > > > > > > > > > > > > >

  After this error message, the installation hangs at this point.

  I use it on a Windows 7 desktop machine.

  Have experience you this problem?  What are my options for installation?

  I appreciate any help you can lend.

  Do yourself a huge favor and change the MS beast by default folder %TEMP%.  Remove the user folder-specific and TMP % environment variables so just leave the system those - who are the shortest paths and don't contain strange characters, which will often screw up installers.

• Cannot install VMWare tools for linux

  Hello

  I use VMWare player 3.1.4.

  I have a machine, Ubunto 11.04 on which I'm trying to install VMWare tools.

  However, the download process always stops with an error: "not recognized update server data (4007). Try again later... »

  I tried to download from two PC different and two different networks.

  Any idea?

  Thank you

  Try disabling the web Updater by going to Preferences > uncheck the "check the Web for updates at startup".

  You can uninstall and then install vmware player.

  You can also get the tools using Apt - get, instead of by the bias of the player interface. See this page:

  OK, I'm back to zero:

  -creates "c:\temp".

  -copy of VMware-player - 3.1.2 - 301548.exe in c:\temp

  -executes the command "c:\temp\VMware-player-3.1.2-301548.exe/e c:\temp\player".

  -executes the command "c:\temp\player\vmware player.msi".

  This should settle down.

• Install VMware Player 3.1 in the SysV-no Linux based system.

  Hello, I'm using Arch Linux here and the previous version worked fine with a few things in the Installer (such as he asked for the system service levels and service of the system scripts).

  The new installer application only service system scripts (where I specified /etc/rc.d), and when the installation ends a dialog box with the following text appears:

  "No directory rc*.d style init script were only given the installer. You must manually add the necessary links to ensure that the vmware to /etc/rc.d/vmware service is automatically started and stopped on the start and stop. »

  The problem is that there is no vmware script to load the modules in this directory, or the modules are built.

  With the installers (v3) previous I wrote this guide that explains how to install it, but it is no longer valid.

  Thank you very much for your time, best regards,

  James.

  Hello

  mayonnaise "dirty workaround: first make sure you have no VMware installed on your computer, and then install VMware Player 3.0.1 according the instructions of jrmoore." Now your file /etc/rc.d/vmware anywhere on your backup disk, uninstall VMware and install 3.1 player. When the installer has grumped about the missing frame output SysV init the and copy the vmware file previously saved in etc/init.d/.

  Start VMware as root to compile the modules, out, run as a regular user and good luck.

  Edit: and of course delete the superfluous with all its contents /etc/rc.d directory (except that you have something in there).
