• Connect two VMs via the connection to the local network using VMWare Player

  So this topic can be posted already, but I'm at the end of the roll, trying to find a solution. I have VMWare player installed 3.1.4 on an enterprise_x64 of Windows 7 system. I configured two virtual machines: OS1 comments: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server 5.5_x64 and OS2 comments: WIndows 7 Ultimate_x64. I need the Linux server to act as a database server in the system environment, that I am creating. The Windows 7 VM will be the client PC. The Linux server is configured to be it's own DHCP server, so ideally the client PC connects to the field of tht and also follow the Linux server IP address.

  I tried all the options of networkign for each virtual computer, but no sem to create this type of connectivity. How to configure the network settings in VMWare Player to make two virtual computers can communicate with each other via a virtual network? (Communication with the host pc is not necessary)

  The short answer is to manually install the lack vmnetcfg.exe, Editor of virtual networkand configure VMnet2 without DHCP and host vNIC and then configure manually each virtual machine network adapter to use Custom VMnet2.

  The longer answer has already been given so many times that you should be able to find detailed directions, however...

  To install the lack vmnetcfg.exe, virtual network editor, run VMware-player-* .exe-e c:\vmptmp go to a command line and then in the c:\vmptmp folder, locate the file c:\vmptmp\network.cab and extract (double-click on the .cab file) vmnetcfg.exe (virtual network editor) file in the working directory of VMware Player usually ' C:\Program Files\VMware/VMware Player ' you can create a shortcut to it and place it with the shortcut of VMware Player if you want to access more easily to her.  This utility is not installed by default is however necessary to turn off the automatic bypass on VMnet0 if the system is multihomed and two or more physical host from the NETWORK adapter is active or you want change VMnet1 and VMnet8 subnet addresses or additional VMnets.

  The you must manually change the configuration of each virtual machine's .vmx file in Notepad, change an existing parameter and add another.

  Change:

  ethernet0.connectionType = "nat"
  

  TO:

  ethernet0.connectionType = "custom"
  

  Add:

  ethernet0.vnet = "VMnet2"
  

  Note: Regardless of connectionType ethernet (n) shows it should be changed to "custom".

  Be sure also to Machine virtual are stop, not suspended and VMware Player is closed when you edit the .vmx config files.

  Here are some pictures to show.

  Here in the VMnet2 virtual network Editor is selected and is how it should be if you what to use your own DHCP server and the host does not have a vNIC.  You can change the IP address as a result of your needs.

  

  Here's the value VM card network NAT settings.

  

  This is what network settings Virtual Machine map will look like after you change the configuration of the Virtual Machine's .vmx file to use Custom VMnet2.

  

  BTW if you replace the Machine network card virtual settings through the user interface customized by something else then you will need to manually edit the .vmx config file to retrieve.   With VMware Workstation, you do not need to manually install the virtual network editor and should not manually edit the .vmx config file as the custom list box is still present and shows all VMnets to select from.

• Remote Desktop does not work after the recent update to VMWare Player, why?

  I have VMWare Player installed on a host with multiple virtual machines. I like to the DRC to the remote host and I've been in months, but in the recent update to VMWare Player, my connection to the DRC has dropped. Now when I try to the DRC to the host it hangs at "Estimate the quality connection" after I get my user name and password, but then it stops without errors or messages. I've updated the host and rebooted several times, I also tried to DRC from a computer on the same local network as the host with no result. I have a friends in exactly the same problem, connection dropped in the middle of the update and no resolution yet. Help?

  I uninstalled VMWare Player and did a clean install (rather than updating an earlier version) and the problem is solved!

• What is the latest version of VMware Player?

  Hello

  
  

  There seems to be some confusion about the latest version of VMware Player.
  

  Please see the screenshot. The title is 'VMware Player 4.0.2', but the individual downloads are "VMware Player 4.0.1".

  I downloaded the Linux version and help-> about said 4.0.1.

  So, how to get the version 4.0.2?

  
  

  TIA

  Kurt

  

  If you click on the link download (win version) the downloaded file is 'VMware-player - 4.0.2 - 591240.exe' and the md5sum is different from the 4.0.1 download further down the page... If Im assuming this is actually 4.0.2 and they just made a mistake on the page.

  Why did you adjust the mask format?, just use one that is long enough to fit the longest value. use something like "FM999G999G999G999", the FM will remove the leading spaces.

• Share the virtual machine created in VMWare Player

  Hi all

  I created a virtual machine Ubuntu based using VMWare Player. The goal of this virtual machine is so it can be used for demonstrations on our societies SaaS based appliction. So basically the image works fine now, I have a few questions:

  1. what format should I send them the virtual machine? (i.e. can I just compress the virtual machine directory)

  2. If open the image in VMWare Player if he invites asking them 'have you copied"/"Moved"the virtual machine? Can I avoid this?

  3. it will work on their equipment?

  Any help appreciated.

  See you soon

  I can help you with your questions;

  1. what format should I send them the virtual machine? (i.e. can I just compress the virtual machine directory)

  Zipper the VM directory should work correctly, it will just extract somewhere on their machine to run it.

  2. If open the image in VMWare Player it will ask asking them

  "You copied" / "Moved" the virtual machine? Can I avoid

  This?

  To the best of my knowledge, you can't avoid it, and they should probably answer "copied" in the situation you describe.

  3. it will work on their equipment?

  It's a pretty loaded question.  Obviously, it must be run the Intel instruction set and have a Player version available for their OS.  I ran with success of virtual machines on a laptop Centrino 1.6 GHz single core, but startup performance left a little to be desired.  I think that a minimum of 1 GB of memory for a host running XP or Linux, probably at least 2 GB for one of the more recent Windows operating systems.  More memory would be better, but it will probably work with what I suggested.  Of course, player must be installed on these hosts.  Then make sure that the parameter memory your VM is as small as you can reasonably do.

  I have provided virtual machines by providing copies of the record, and they worked very well.  In my case, I created my VMs on my Mac with Fusion, but then run it with Fusion or player.

• automatic start of the virtual machine on vmware player 2.5.1?

  Can VMWare Player 2.5.1 the virtual machine autostart when it starts? I have Windows running VMWare Player when it starts, but just, this brings me to the main page of player where you can open file, recent opening, etc. You still have to physically click to open the virtual machine. So is there a way that I could automate it to just run itself when it opened (change of maybe a file somewhere)? If this version/product does not support this, can you recommend one that does?

  Player doesn't have the ability to auto-start the virtual machines.  The fact of VMware Server.  Server start virtual machines when Windows starts, not when you start the server GUI, which is not exactly what you are referring, but is usually what most people want when they want machines virtual autostart.

  'office' versions of Windows are listed as taken hosts supported OS.  Many threads on these forums about the small nagging issues with networking and such when to use Server on unsupported hosts, especially hosts Vista and Win7.  You don't specify what version of Windows you are using as the host.  If it is a server version, VMware Server is an option for you.

  But a simple solution is to simply make shortcuts to the. Files in the folder of your VMX virtual machine.

• MSI failed on the latest version of VMware player

  I use Vista 64 Ultimate.  When I use "run" and add the z switch, as follows

  'Action '=' install', VMware-player-3.0.0-203739.exe/z * I keep on getting error MSI failed. All of the suggestions.

  It is said 'The MSI C:\Users\Username\AppData\Local\Temp\vmware_1259165632\vmwareplayer.msi' failed.

  Thanks in advance.

  random tips that may help...

  Redirect %tmp% into C:\temp - make sure that it has at least 200 MB of free space

  Rename the file VMware-player-* .exe 'buggy.exe '.

  disable any firewall programs and Antivir

  kill a process running called webcam.exe if yopu have such a process

  don't forget to login as administrator and use "run as Administrator".

• Create new Pixelbender filters when running

  Anyone know if it is possible to create PixelBender filters when running?
  I want to be able to load any kernel of .pbj during execution to create a new filter.
  I think that the problem is with the embed tag. There is no way that I know how to dynamically generate the path of the CBC to the embed tag, it must be hard-coded.
  

  The following example is from the documentation from Adobe on the Shader. You can easily switch the PBJ you wanted to load it into the application. Once loaded, you can then apply or use it as an instance that has been incorporated.

  http://help.Adobe.com/en_US/ActionScript/3.0_ProgrammingAS3/WSB5D89F6A-065F-4b18-A163-D421 90DB7ABE.html

  var loader: URLLoader = new URLLoader();
  loader.dataFormat = URLLoaderDataFormat.BINARY;
  loader.addEventListener (Event.COMPLETE, onLoadComplete);
  Loader.Load (new URLRequest ("myShader.pbj"));

  var shader: Shader;

  function onLoadComplete(event:Event):void {}
  Create a new shader and set the data loaded as its bytecode
  Shader = new Shader();
  shader.byteCode = loader.data;

  You can also pass the bytecode to the Shader() constructor like this:
  Shader = new Shader (loader.data);

  do something with the shader

• Bills of the AP - query gives output in the editor, but no data found when run from a workflow

  Hello

  I am working on a custom workflow related to invoices from the AP and I came across this very odd situation where the below query works perfectly well by operating in any PL/SQL as Toad/SQL Developer editor but when run in an Oracle Workflow custom, the query raises an exception NO_DATA_FOUND.

  I set debugging instructions to capture the values of the parameters (lv_invoice_id and lv_hold_id being retrieved workflow attributes) before and after the SELECT statement and noticed that the values of the parameters are set correctly.

  SELECT type

  IN lv_match_type

  DE ap_invoices_all aia , ap_invoice_lines_all Arnaud , ap_holds_all aha

  OÙ ail . invoice_id = lv_invoice_id

  ET line_type_lookup_code = "ITEM"

  ET AIA . invoice_id = garlic . invoice_id

  ET AHA . invoice_id = AIA . invoice_id

  ET AHA . hold_id = lv_hold_id

  ET ROWNUM = 1 ;

  Can anyone suggest what could be wrong with that? Having spent 2 days trying to debug this but without success.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  I added a function of the WorkflowTimeout JOB just before function which becomes the flag Match, and it worked. It appears like the workflow engine is somehow unable to assign values to the query. Putting a WAIT, he probably gave the workflow a second to assign variables with values. Seems very strange, but seems to have solved the problem. Do thorough tests to confirm that it does not break something else. Mike - appreciate all your help with this post until now. You were very prompt in answering my questions. Appreciate it.

• They killed the unity mode in VMWare Player 12. Can I get the installation program for Player 7

  Really sucks - VMWare killed unity Player 12 mode. If I had known that I have would have stuck to 7 Player - it worked very well.

  Anyone know if it is possible to get the installer for 7?

  Thank you

  Yes, we have abandoned the support unit for Linux customers only.  It is sad to see the function will, but our information indicates that Linux unit has been rarely used, and it was extremely difficult to maintain a level of quality that our customers expect, so we took the difficult decision to remove it.

  Try to download Player 7 from here: Download VMware Player 7.x

  See you soon,.

  Hi all

  I am getting error below while reading VM(UI VM.ova) UI in VMware Player. Everyone has also same error. Help, please.

  Thanks in advance,

  RizQad

  
  

  

  It is in fact no error, but the result of not being able to get the automatic (DHCP) IP settings. Please check which virtual bridged network (Host-Only, NAT) is configured for the virtual computer and check if the related DHCP service is running. Also make sure that NIC of the virtual computer is configured with "Connect to light". If no DHCP server is available, follow the instructions in the red part of the screen.
