Install vmware tools in Debian 7.1 comments will not work

Hello

can anyone help with this, I tried to installthe vmware tools in a 7.1 Debian guest and got the following error:

"VMware Tools 8.8.2 build-590212 for FreeBSD will not install on the operating system you are using. Please make sure that you install the version of VMware Tools that is appropriate for your operating system. »

The client has been installed with the operating system other type > FreeBSD 64-bit.

Any suggestions?

Concerning

Jens

Hi Darius,.

It's the amd64, but Linux > Debian 7 x 64 isn't available, I chose the 5 x 64 Version, it works.

I wonder if I should buy the 9 workstation to have the correct choice available..., I would do that.

I forgot to mention that I use version 8 of workstation.

Thank you!

See you soon

Jens

  • Windows 2008 Server Core - install VMware Tools

    I am running VMware Workstation V9.0.1 build-894247 on Windows 7 Enterprise 64-bit.  I'm trying to install VMware tools on an o/s comments running Windows 2008 Enterprise (Core).  I am able to run the installation (using d:\setup.exe) but the services tools fail on the o/s comments every time.  I uninstalled / reinstalled / repaired several times without a bit of luck.

    Anyone have any suggestions for the installation of VMWare tools in Server 2008 Enterprise (Core)?

    Looks like the same question as http://communities.vmware.com/thread/429432

    It seems that Windows 2008 Core is not explorer.exe, and it is part of the tools dealing with the integration of the unit which does not handle this correctly.

    Try to delete the following file tool to disable the functionality of the unit, and restart Windows:

    C:\Program VMware Tools\plugins\vmusr\unity.dll

    The rest of the functionality of tools such as changing resolution and copy + paste should continue to work even without the Unity plugin.

  • Cannot install VMWare Tools on virtual Mac

    I created a virtual instance of a Mac (Mountain Lion) on my Windows 7 system.

    I click the button on the drive, select manage and then install VMware Tools. I get an error: component not found on the update server. Contact VMware Support or your system administrator.

    I have confirmed that I can browse the Internet from the virtual system. What other steps should I take, so that I can install the tools?

    Thank you

    Virginia

    Post edited by: BigSam1 Thanks to each of you for the information. I was curious to know if this could be done, so I searched and found a blog with instructions. Now that I know it's not cool to do, I have deleted the virtual Mac.

    Because MAC OS on an Apple brand hardware not violates Apple EULA, this is not supported by VMware Player, which is the reason why there are not VMware Tools available for it.

  • Install VMWare tools on Windows 8 (x 86) - kill comments

    I'm a consumer of Windows 8 Preview x 86 VM (built manually as 'other', since easy install did not work - http://communities.vmware.com/thread/392887).

    It would be good to install VMWare Tools on this and it seems mentioned as a success, install so - of windows.iso:

    x86 Other 5.png

    and then the comments screen goes... broken:

    x86 Other 6.png

    At this point, it does not. Reset the prompt, it will boot (with splash screens, etc.), but then switch to a blank screen - then... not very interesting.

    VMWare Tools works on Windows 8 Preview of consumers (x 86)?

    Don't use 'other' for Windows 8 - that makes no sense - use rather Windows 7.

    And next time just jump the video driver and install vmware-tools with "custom option.

  • Cannot install VMware Tools on Windows 10

    Having trouble installing VMware Tools on a Win10 business VM (vSphere 5.5). Installation lance then anything beyond that never reports. Is there something special that needs to be done to make this work?

    -Thank you

    Also have installed the Update Manager plugin that reports the status of inconsistent compliance.

    When you install the tools, you choose the Interactive installation or the Automated one?

    Try the Interactive installation instead.

    I also have a second comment from Andrew on Firewall/Antivirus possibly block Setup.  Try turning it off.  In addition, you may have to disable UAC.

  • 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.

    What have you selected for your Version of guest OS in the virtual machine settings?  That could be the cause of this problem.

    You get the error then 'install' or 'mount' the ISO image?

    Also, you go through and remove all equipment and unused hardware drivers of your virtual machine after the P2V?

  • Catch 22 tries to install VMware Tools

    I created a Windows 7 VM from a physical PC. I 'play' on a Player 10 Windows via VMware Workstation 12 host, connect to the guest and then click on the "Install tools" button in the player. I see this error message:

    "The virtual machine must have a virtual CD/DVD device to install VMware Tools."

    OK, so I turned off the guest who also ends the player, rerun the player, select the virtual machine and click on "Edit virtual machine settings". On the Hardware tab, I click on the Add button, select "reader of CD/DVD", click Next, select the "use ISO image" radio button (because I guess that's what the error message means by "virtual CD/DVD"), and then click Next, and then I get invited to an ISO image. And that's the Catch 22 - the error message indicates that the player has just need a virtual device, not an ISO, but when I try to add a virtual device, the player wants an ISO.

    How to break this vicious circle and install VMware Tools?

    I thought about it myself the answer to a question on the superuser. Here are the steps:

    1. Stop the virtual machine
    2. Run the drive and select the virtual machine
    3. Click on "Edit virtual machine settings".
    4. Click on "Add..." "in the Hardware tab
    5. Select "CD/DVD Drive", and then click Next
    6. Select the "use ISO image" radio button and click Next
    7. Navigate to C:\Program Files (x 86) \VMware\VMware drive and double-click windows.iso
    8. Uncheck the box "Connect to light" (probably any) and click on finish
    9. Click OK
    10. Click on "Play virtual machine."
    11. Log on to the virtual computer
    12. Click installation tools
    13. Follow the instructions in the installer
