Cannot install XP updates in a new virtual machine

I have vmware 8.0.4 on my work desktop and laptops computers, who have all two Win 7 with AVG antivirus. I installed XP Pro SP2 on both. When I try to install the updates I get these errors:

Windows Update:

0x8024400a

Microsoft Update:

0 x 80240036

and this message:

«The site has encountered a problem and cannot display the page you are trying to post...» »

I have disabled everything I can disable AVG and I still get these errors. I can't understand what is blocking updates. Any advice would be appreciated!

Is the Internet/network-connectivity based Virtual Machine?  If yes then it is not a question of VMware, it's a Windows XP update problem and you need to do as you would on a physical machine to fix this.  I download Windows XP SP3 for professionals (this is not downloaded through Windows updates) and install it and then see if Windows Update started working.  Otherwise Google the error messages and follow what already exists on the Internet.

  • Cannot install VMware vCenter Server on a virtual machine

    Hello world

    I'm new to the forum. I try to install the vcenter server in a virtual machine.

    Configuration of the VM: 10G VMDK, used 7G... 2G memory... guest operating system is win XP Pro.

    When I run the Setup it says:

    This installation package could not be opened!

    I have attached a JPG of the error. Can someone please!

    Kind regards.

    64 bit is not supported as a host to vCenter operating system, see the compatibility guide posted above.  I would try to mount the ISO using the client machine instead of starting from the ESX host, it could be that your DVD image is not good.

  • URGENT! After installing 6 Fusion and creation of new virtual machine with Windows 7, I get a message "VMware Fusion cannot enter the unit". WHAT SHOULD DO?

    After purchase, installation and activation Fusion 6 with the license key, I had a library of VMS showing 2 Boot Camp partitions. It's strange that I only have 1.
    I tried to activate them but received a message that it is out of date in 2 cases. (see annex 1)

    I started a new virtual machine with a Windows 7 installation disc directly on my HD. I have provided a way to do this and followed the instructions of Fusion to the screen.

    Apparently, everything went well and after several restarts, the installation appears to be over (see annex 2) I tried to open and run the installed Windows 7. I had however a window with the following message:

    "Pending the unit.

    "VMware Fusion cannot enter the unit. Please wait until the unit starts automatically, or interact with the virtual machine below. ' (see annex 3)

    Here Windows 7 seems to start but after a while with the home screen and of the Øresund finishing this window closed and open a new window called library Virtual Machine on the left showing the partitions of Bootcamp and the Virtual Machine Windows 7 x 64 and in the middle gray a representation of what is supposed to be the Windows 7 desktop. (see Exhibit 4). When I opened the settings button a window with different setting options pops up. This mark means to me that Windows is installed but the final opening isn't the case

    When you quit Vmware Fusion indeed Windows seems to be close (see part 5)

    What is going on? What has gone wrong? What should I do? I don't know how to solve the problem.

    I should f.i. remove the virtual machine from Windows 7 and is free automatically made partition on my HD as the reboot with the Windows installation disc? or y at - it another way to enter the UNIT?

    Help, please!

    Thanks in advance

    Your virtual machine is running. It is in the unit - which each windows gets its own window of Mac - and you have no application Windows running, there is no visible windows. You can start a Windows application in the start of Fusion menu in the menu bar at the top right, or turn on the Windows task bar on the view menu and start applications from there. Or use the view menu to switch to the Single mode or full-screen, which puts all of your Windows desktop in a window separate from Mac.

    You do not have two partitions to Boot Camp on your Mac, you have two virtual machines named "Boot Camp partition".

    The message about it being unable to enter the unit arrives while the merger is pending for the tools begin to run, because the tool is necessary for the unit.

  • Users cannot install the update of my application and impossible to reinstall the application.

    I have an App World app, the first time, it's a free app (ver: 0.9), but later I changed it for a paid app. recently, I published a new version of this app (ver: 1.0) and free package upgrade.

    But users who have installed my app when it's free cannot install the update!

    I Can't download the update. I keep getting the following error "There was a problem installing...please try again." I've retried many times and reset my device but nothing works.
    
    software shows an update to Version 1.0 from .9 however,
    the update errors out and fails to download.
    

    They tried to delete the app first, but they can not reinstall it, even if they want to buy, but App World allow them to do!

    I tried uninstalling it and now I can't reinstall it. ???
    
    I can not even reinstall from appworld.
    Let alone purchase.
    
    but i try to paid for it and when i go to do it, it dont allow me
    

    It is really strange, what do I do?

    I feel your pain, but you can't do much. This is a known issue with AppWorld during the passage of the free paid, thats why this option is no longer available for providers.

    The only way to mitigate the damage, push a paid upgrade, say version 1.1. Make sure that the upgrade price paid matches the original price of app, otherwise it would be confusing to users.

    Advantages of such an approach:

    -Users who want to pay will be able to download the upgrade, you get the money

    Disadvantages:

    -You will get a lot of negative comments from users who have as free version

    -Those who have already purchased as paid app will have to pay to upgrade too

  • New virtual machine cannot reach gateway all-in-olders Yes

    Hi, I'm using ESXi for a year with no problems, but now I'm having a very strange situation. New virtual machine cannot reach the front door, while the 'old'. New virtual machine can ping olders VM and vice versa, but new looks as private. I tried different OS and still have the same question.

    That's what I have:

    Reference DELL R610 with RAID - 1 and RAID-5

    ESXi free 348481 4.1.0

    1 card NETWORK connected

    IPs public 16

    4 VM (W 2008 32bits, W 2008R2 64, 32 2008 W, W 2008 64) works perfectly

    All VM are stored on the local Datastore2 (raid-5)

    Last week, I installed:

    1 Openfiler ESA (gateway problem)

    1 W 2008 R2 (gateway problem)

    1 W XP 32 (gateway problem)

    1 W 2008 32 (gateway problem)

    Older VM never lose connection with gateway and beyond

    New never manage to bridge

    I can't manually add gateway IP/mac address (error 5) in the new.

    Anyone can figure it out and how to solve? I'm really lost.

    Thank you

    New virtual machine can ping olders VM and vice versa...

    This excludes actually questions 'virtual '. The vSwitch has no restrictions.

    What kind of physical switch are you using? If this is a CISCO switch to ensure that the port is configured as a port of access (or trunk port) and spans tree portfast is. Some CISCO switches have a "macro"set desktop on their ports which limits the number of MAC addresses that are allowed on the port.

    André

    PS: Please don't ask me. Did you check the address of the gateway AND subnet mask are correct for the new virtual machines?

  • New virtual machine cannot see host DVD rom

    I installed VMware ESX 3i 3.5.0 Build 123629 on a new Dell PowerEdge 2900 and began the process of adding new virtual machines. The Issus is that when I start the virtual machine and intsaller attempted the BONE of the guest virtual computer does not see the DVD, even if it is the setup of the virtual machine. When I go in the settings of the virtual machine and try to set up DVD to use the host device, I get the message that no device is available. Help...

    SATA has always been a little flakey when it comes to ESX.  You should maybe update your BIOS or make some small changes in the BIOS for him to see the player.  A quick fix would be to create an ISO of the DVD that you want to use and upload it to your data store to use until you get the problem solved.

  • Cannot install the update error

    I'm trying to update my iPhone 6 16 GB running iOS to iOS 9.3.1 9.2.1 but when I try to install the OTA update it says "cannot install the update." How could I solve this problem? The contact ID is not available because the unit is gray with a white screen and a contact ID button or space, which affects the update process?

    I would try to update via iTunes

    Connect the device using a cable to a computer (PC or Mac) running the latest version of iTunes 12.3.3
