• VMware Tools for Mac on EsXi 5.5

  I'm trying to install VMware Tools on a Mac on my 5.5 EsXi box.  I get the following error:

  VMWare Tools upgrade error

  Call 'VirtualMachine.MountToolsInstaller' for the 'host name' object on EsXi host failed.

  VIX 21003 = error code

  Anyone where I can download Vmware Tools for mac on an EsXi 5.5 box?  Perform a google search, I am led to this page to download VMware Tools:

  Index of /45848/tools/esx/5.0

  However, this site lists only on Windows and Linux.  I do not see any version of Vmware Tools Mac.

  Nevermind, I was able to get rid of the error message by removing my cd player.  Its strange that after mounting will cause this error.  Also its strange that there isn't any downloadable version online.  But no matter I got it solved.

• VMware tools for windows 98

  I'm fighting for two hours just to find the @$ & #^! VMware tools for Windows 98.

  For admins:

  Is it so difficult to include a link and a line on the site somewhere?

  With so many questions posted here, you already know that you don't have to make it all work automated, so in many cases a manual alternative is the only option.

  After the installation of Windows 98, there was a message that Vmware tools OS installed but I still only 16 colors, 640 x 480 res and an answer that is worse than a slideshow, so I guess that no Vmware tools have been installed.

  I tried some of the ISO images here https://packages.vmware.com/tools/esx/index.html but they are not accepted for the player or the operating system.

  So, Vmware tools option exists for Windows 98 or not?

  Hello

  you do not have the option:

  Player - manage?  (because theire you might normally before the installation process) to mount the iso,... and so on

  have you tried to mount the Iso local player manually? (not the source vmware Web)

  you have enough disk space?

  Best regards

• Is there an alternative to the Update Manager - download the latest VMWare Tools for Windows Server 2003

  Hello

  I am really struggling to find an alternative to the Update Manager to download the latest VMWare Tools for Windows (Server 2003)

  There must be a link of just download somewhere? I scoured VMWare.com nothing helps...

  I can find of the OSP for other platforms (SUSE, Ubuntu etc), but nothing for Windows! Why?

  Any help really appreciated!

  Kind regards

  Tony.

  So you are saying I need to download the latest version of ESX/vSphere and then extract the VM Tools of which rpm?

  It might be a way to get them, if you are unable to install the product.

  The version will say vSphere 4.0 be OK for ESXi 3.5 VMs?

  Yes

• VMware tools for Linux

  Hello

  Y at - it a general Vmware tools for all Linux: I mean Redhat suse and Ubuntu are the same?

  Where can I download it

  Thank you

  You can install it via the tools provided with your ESXi installation. Right-click the virtual machine in the inventory and select comments-> installation / upgrade VMware Tools.

  

  This will mount a CD player in the guest operating system, providing VMware tools. The steps to install on CentOS (i.e. RHEL base):

  root@srv20 [/ TMP] # cd/tmp

  root@srv20 [/ TMP] # mkdir/mnt/cdrom

  root@srv20 [/ TMP] # mount/dev/cdrom/mnt/cdrom

  Mount: block device/dev/sr0 is protected write, read-only installation

  root@srv20 [/ TMP] # cp /mnt/cdrom/VMwareTools-*.tar.gz/tmp

  root@srv20 [/ TMP] # umount-l/mnt/cdrom

  root@srv20 [/ TMP] # tar xfz VMwareTools-version 9.0.0 - 782409.tar.gz

  root@srv20 [/ TMP] # cd vmware-tools-distrib.

• VMware Tools for Mac will not install bug.

  Hello I have a clean install of Mac OS x 10.9 I raise in a virtual machine but when I bring the VMware Tools installed, get an error:

  Cannot install VMware Tools on this disk.  VMware Tools requires Mac OS X 10.5 or higher.

  Screenshot attached.

  I've tried versions both 6.0.1 and 6.0.2 darwin.iso for VMware Fusion. but the same error.   I wonder what VMware is actually audit to determine the versions of operating system.   I have in the past summer success install the same software on the same computer, but I have tried to reinstall from scratch (more than once) and tried many changes of setting on both hosts and guests with no joy.   Anyone know how to fix?   

  Thank you.

  mapsurfer wrote: there was a facility of Mavericks I had done a ton of work on which to install VMware Tools, which makes me think there is some file touched along the way

  who was happy to install VMware tools...

  I'll tell you one last time...  When clean install OS X 10.9 Mavericks under VMware Fusion 6.0.2 VMware Tools are not automatically installed!

  In addition, it turns out that the "internal" or "removable" made no difference that I was able to move the vmdk from SATA, SCSI (appears inside the system) but that made no difference either but has been tested

  I have mentioned that the drive internal vs external because VMware Fusion before 6.0.2 has not created a good installer for OS X 10.9 Mavericks nor was it settled the case, and the fact that it was not properly installed may have been a contributing factor to the VMware Tools install problem not necessarily imply that the disk shows as external!

  I wonder if there is another way to install VMware Tools manually?  I can see the directory structure exposed within the darwin.iso but don't know if I can cp

  This straight out of the iso, but not being is not a Mac OSX expert... don't know if I can run alternate and no package installer idea what files are changed by install VMware Tools.

  Still confident enough, I can work around the issue of the installer.

  I just tested this on a clean build and with the help of pacifists opened the VMware Tools.pkg (Install VMware Tools.app/Contents/Resources/VMware Tools.pkg) in the bundle 'Install VMware Tools.app' on darwin.iso (VMware Tools for OS X) and "Selected files.pkg content" then clicked on install and check 'use administrator privileges '.  He basically just moved the files in places and then after that I restarted the computer virtual VMware Tools seem to work.  I tested VMware shared folders, copy & paste, drag & drop, and change the resolution of the screen... all seem to work fine, however it was simply intended as a test and not a recommended method to install VMware Tools and I don't know if it is essentially a complete installation.  I don't have the time now to analyze the two occurrences, one made appropriately and the other using pacifists to see if there is in fact no difference.

  I was also going to take the vmdk to another platform and see if any difference (doubt it will be)

  Any platform with not brand hardware Apple is a direct violation of the SLA products and may not be discussed in these forums!

• VMware Tools for ESXi not in running and not installed

  (nested) Tools of ESXi does not.

  I installed an ESXi 5.5 nested on a physical and installed 5.5 ESXi host tools on the virtual ESXi5.5.

  However both the client c# as the Web Client report not (not running, not installed) tools.

  When I type 'list of software esxcli vib', I see the esx-tools-for-esxi in the list.

  I have attached the vmware.log for the nested ESXi, I use nesting for several years only and had no problems.

  Thanks in advance

  You are hiding the fact that you run in a virtual machine, if the tools do not start.  Shut down the virtual computer, remove this line from your configuration file and restart:

  monitor_control.restrict_backdoor = true

• Cannot install VMWare Tools for Windows MCE

  Previously, I had Windows MCE installed and running on the VMware 1.x tools.

  I upgraded to VMware 2.0 and now I can't get the tools to install. When I click on "Install VMWare Tools", it brings up a window with the following in it:

  VMWare tools is not supported on this operating system.
  Check
  configuration of the virtual machine to make sure that the settings match to the
  operating system installed. See the documentation for more details
  on the guest operating systems supported.

  I checked the configuration of the virtual machine and this shows that the Windows operating system, as selected.

  I am running VMWare on Ubuntu 8.10, if that matters.

  Any suggestions?

  Hello

  I compared it with mine and there are 2 major differences.

  First of all, I use older virtual material (version 4 instead of 7) but I do not expect that this is relevant to this problem. In addition, it makes little sense to use older virtual hardware unless your virtual machine must be compatible with VMware ESX. For example the old version of HW I use excludes the directx features, and you probably want to use.

  The other main difference is guestOS, in my version, it has the following value:

  guestOS = "winxppro"
  

  Could you try that and see if it helps?

  If this does not help then I'm afraid, we're going to need more details. In this case it might be useful to the vmware.log file loading

  One thing you might try must in any case completely re - install VMware tools in removing it first.

  In order to do not find themselves trapped by the windows activation logic or other inconveniences while experimenting, I recommend taking a backup of the virtual machine when it is completely stopped before doing anything else.

• 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... »

  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:

  To manually install VMware Tools on a Windows host download just unzip the archive and run the .exe which result and that will create the windows.iso file and will be available when you select install VMware Tools.

  On a Linux host unzip archive and then in a Terminal, for example, run the following command:

  sudo vmware-installer --install-component=vmware-tools-windows-8.4.5-324285.i386.component
  

  This opens the installer GUI and then you just follow the instructions.  When the windows.iso is available when you install VMware Tools

• Cannot install vmware tools for xp vm

  Player 3.1.3 on Ubuntu 10.10

  Installs a XP VM to this platform - formerly hosted by VMWare Server 1.x on XP also. It works! Installation of the Vmware tools just leads to the 'there was a problem updating a software component. Try again later and if the problem persists, contact your system administrator or the VMware Support. "So I... Help, please!

  By the way... German XP inside the VM!

  Herbert

  You must first extract the files in the archive, then use sudo in the command line in a Terminal.

  An example would be in a Terminal...

  sudo vmware-installer --install-component=vmware-tools-linux-8.4.4-301548.x86_64.component
  

  To display the GUI installer and then you just follow the instructions.

  

  For VMware Windows tools that you have downloaded the command line should be as follows.

  sudo vmware-installer --install-component=vmware-tools-windows-8.4.5-324285.i386.component

• Is there any update for VMware Tools for Workstation 8.0.3?

  I've never installed a new version of VMware Workstation without the need to upgrade VMware tools in each of my virtual machines.  After the upgrade to Workstation 8.0.3 there was no prompt to update VMware Tools and he says that it is up-to-date.  Was there no new version of VMware Tools with this upgrade, or am I missing something simple just?

  Thank you

  ~ J

  What I see on VMware Server, VMware Tools 8.8.2 are used in both VMware Workstation 8.0.2 and 8.0.3.  So, looks like two issues CVE VMware Workstation 8.0.3 addresses has been fixed in the base files not tools packages.
