Installation of VMWare Workstation 11.1.0 on Win 8.1 is THAT MSI will fail with the error "could not write value vmware - tray.exe for \software\microsoft\windows'currentversion\run-cles.

Hi all

The MSI failed with the error message as "could not write value vmware - tray.exe in \SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows'CurrentVersion\Run key.  Make sure you have fufficient access to that key, or contact your support staff' while trying to install vmware workstation 11.1.0 in windows 8.1.
I tried to call the installer with run as administrator but it does not help, please suggest me overcome this error.

Hi Vincentand welcome to the VMware communities!

This error indicates that you have some security software (antivirus or antimalware software) that protects the part of the registry.  Can you try to temporarily disable all security software on your host computer and see if the installation can move forward?

See you soon,.

If the system has a product key in the motherboard (o. a. 3.0 [Activation OEM] provides an OEM product key in the firmware), you use an Unattend file, file (EI.cfg) edition Configuration or the product ID file (PID.txt).

  • VMware converter 5.5 failed with the error failed to partition the disk of destination

    I tried to convert the centos linux server physical to virtual. However, I received an error message at 1% as below,

    Error: Impossible to partition the disk of destination.

    FAILED: an error occurred during conversion: "CalculateGPTPartitionLocations failed!"


    Conversion of GPT partition is available vcenter converter 5.1 and higher, so the GPT partition on the source server will not be a problem.

    Tried several ways as the storage of data changing but still receive the same error message.

    Anyone encounter this before?

    Hello

    Unfortunately there is a bug with Linux P2V Converter when the destination drive is greater than 2 TB (is not whether TPG, it's size). Sorry for the inconvenience.

    The solution would be to reduce the volumes instead of destination and/or their distributed on multiple disks. Another solution would be to leave unchecked high-volume and clone them manually after the conversion.

    Another misfortune is that these workaround solutions are not possible in your case - the root volume occupies approximately 4.3 TB, and the two 'start-up' and '-' are needed to perform a conversion with the reconfiguration.

    The options I can think of are:

    -make a manual P2V, i.e. to create the destination (with partitions, logical volumes and base) computer created and formatted, clone the data (for example the converter uses tar via ssh) and manually configure the virtual machine. The final step is, fixing/etc/fstab, installation of GRUB and rebuild the initrd image

    -install new and copy data

    -Optionally divides the volume of root on the source machine if possible and then convert it. For example, to add a new drive temporarily and move some data so that all volumes become smaller than 2 TB.

    Kind regards
