VMWare Tools shared folder code does not compile on VMWare Fusion 7, Ubuntu asked 14.10, and Clipboard sharing does not work.

Hello

After the upgrade to a guest of 14.04 to 14.10 Ubuntu, I tried to reinstall the VMWare tools.  The problems I've come across so far:

Shared folder code will not compile.  I get the following result:

do: enter the directory "/ tmp/modconfig-ElOCTG/vmhgfs-only.

Using the kernel build system.

The filesystem (vmhgfs module) driver is used only for the shared folder

feature. The rest of the software provided by VMware Tools is designed to work

regardless of this function.

If you want the shared folders feature, you can install the driver of

running vmware-config - tools.pl again after making sure that gcc, binutils, make

and your kernel sources are installed on your computer.

These packages are available on the installation of your distribution CD.

In addition, the shared clipboard does not work.

I'm under VMWare 7.0.0 on OS X 10.10.

Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated.


Thank you

The VMWare Tools included with fusion 7.0.1 solved this problem for me (and without any serious regressions I noticed so far, at least, which is nice but not something I intend on with vmware), so probably the next update of each VMware product should include the updated tools.  Don't know how long updates to other products are coming, however.  Wonder if there is a separate place to get just the tools to day?

    I think it's because the "return" statement is not in a real function, delimited by braces

    The return keyword can be used only inside a function. That's why he reports a syntax error.

    If you believe that your syntax is correct and it works the way you expect in your target browsers, you can ignore the warning. But Dreamweaver is sticking to its guns and say "put it in a function or I won't do more than any code hinting or syntax checking.

    It has nothing to do with the WinFileCache-* .dat.

  • VMWare Fusion 6.0.2: Mavericks - Windows 7 Clipboard sharing does not work

    I'm running a MBP, OS X 10.9.2 (Mavericks), VMWare Fusion 6.0.2 with a Windows 7 VM. The elements copied to the Clipboard in one are not properly shared with the other. I went in every parameter I know to try to solve this problem, no dice.

    All known solutions?

    Brad

    Hi Brad,

    1. click on the menu Virtual Machine-> settings, then click on the button of isolation in the Panel settings, Pls, make sure that the two check box (enable D & D, caillet &) and checked.

    2. If the boxes are check, have you already tried to install VMware tools by clicking on the Virtual Machines menu-> reinstall VMware Tools? Can drag you a file from the Mavericks to the Windows 7 VM? No sharing of Clipboard does not work when Windows 7 has just started and no other application does?

  • Windows update error 80070490 - other corrections code do not work.

    I have 9 updates, that I need to install it and I get the error code 80070490.

    I did the following to try to address everything with no luck...
    (1) tried a system restore. Unfortunately this update has been tried and failed several times during the last few days, and each time it is automatically a restore point. So now I have no more old that won to restore restore points.
    2.) have tried updating system as indicated here preparation tool:
    Rebooted and still have the problem.
    2.) attempt to perform a repair with my Vista Ultimate DVD installation as described here:
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-GB/Windows-Vista/Windows-Update-error-80070490
    The problem is that I can't choose 'upgrade '. It is grayed out. The reason for this is that I can't upgrade to a version older than what I'm running now. My DVD is SP1 and I have since upgraded to SP2. I keep seeing this recommendation and it will not work for me.
    (3.) I deleted the "Software Distribution" folder and reinstalled the WindowsUpdateAgent.
    4.), I tried to use the Mr FixIt. It does not find that there is a problem with the windows update and then it tries to fix it. It runs corrections and says that it has attached to them. But when I close and re - run, problems are found and 'fixed' again. I have been through multiple cycles of Mr FixIt, restart, update, error, fixit, etc.. I also tried the fixit several times back to back running. Whenever he finds the problem, says it is fixed, but then when re-ran he finds the problem, said again and again this is corrected.
    This all started after uninstalling several pieces of software by using the control panel. I emptied several unused programs and uninstalled AVG Antivirus. Not sure if this is related or not, since that was a few days after uninstalling before I saw for the first time this error.
    I'm still having the problem.
    If you could point me kindly to specific files that need to be extracted for this error I would really appreciate it.

    I managed to solve this problem on my own. It turned out to be something with the above Japanese language pack. I uninstalled it and everything updated correctly. I thought I'd pass just in case someone else has the same problem.

  • Updated Fusion 6.0.4 version 4 and Clipboard does not work

    I've updated from version 4.4 to 6.0.4 under XP SP3 and the Clipboard no longer works

    between the Mavericks and Windoze.

    I tried the article:

    VMware KB: Unit, copy/paste and drag - move do not work after restarting a virtual machine with its auto-login...

    I don't have automatic connection

    Wait 60 seconds before the opening of session

    Have run "C:\Program VMware Tools\vmtoolsd.exe ' vmusr - n command line

    Have you checked the registry key

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

    and have

    • VMware User Process REG_SZ "C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware Tools\vmtoolsd.exe" -n vmusr

    In the Task Manager there are two vmtoolsd.exe and a running SYSTEM and the other under my user name

    If I kill one or the other, copy / paste still does not work.

    Is no longer a VM Tools icon in the system tray, which is design?

    I re-installed VM Tools, rebooted several times and lost a lot of time to work.

    I have copy and paste sheet 50 times a day, so I just lost money on the upgrade that works much faster.

    so I don't want to have to go back to version 4

    I installed a Windows 7 VM to 6, copy / paste does not work, and the vmtoolsd.exe is running under my user name

    I would be grateful for a fix that actually works for Windows XP

    Reinstall done rarely VMware tools what it promises.

    He almost never corrects anything (I reconsidérerais even say to drop the 'almost' on that sentence)

    The address that VMware Tools issues is:

    -Full uninstall VMware Tools

    -Restart the virtual machine

    -Install VMware Tools

    -Restart the virtual machine is requested.

    Before starting the procedure, if you feel uncomfortable with this, you can take a backup or a snapshot.

  • EPrint code will not work

    Printer is a photosmart wireless B110. Everything is set up fine, works very well and the firmware is being updated.

    Monday: get code printer, try adding it to the eprint centre and keep say that it is an invalid code.

    I disabled the web services enabled but due to server errors could not reactivate and get a new code until the end of the evening Wednesay.

    Thursday: back to eprint center, try to add the new code, and again said that it is not valid.

    I'm the only one in the House, so there is no other accounts related to this printer or something. Could someone tell me what could be the problem and how to fix it please?

    Try to print again and see if it works, if it's not I do not know why you get codes that do not work, but disable and re-enable web services to see if a new code will work (Yes, I know, you already did). Let me know what happens and I will continue to help.

  • Buy VMware Fusion 7, but the v5 download and run the merger also?

    I looked on the website of VMware, but impossible to find the answer to this question:

    A customer can purchase VMware Fusion version 7 (the current version) but also to download and run an earlier version of VMware Fusion (for example, merger v5) for temporary use? Here's an example scenario:

    * A VMware customer has two Macs. One is an old Mac running Snow Leopard, and the other is a new Mac running Mavericks or Yosemite. The customer wants to use the new Mac, go ahead (and give the old Mac). The client runs even a few applications that are not supported on what it is later than Snow Leopard (for example PowerPC applications). The obvious solution is to run these applications in a guest of Snow Leopard Server in VMware Fusion on the new Mac.

    * The problem is that Snow Leopard Server does not install as a guest operating system on the recent Mac models of the client, but it can run an existing Snow Leopard Server prompt that was created on an older Mac.

    * The client has this old Snow Leopard Mac. Unfortunately, it won't run VMware Fusion 7. It will run in VMware Fusion version 5, however. The customer wants to run VMware Fusion 5 on the old Mac to create the Snow Leopard Server on old Mac prompt, then copy the comments for the new Mac where it can run under VMware Fusion 7.

    HERE ARE MY QUESTIONS:

    --> How can the customer buy VMware Fusion 7, but also to download a copy of VMware Fusion 5 for this operation 'create a Snow Leopard Server prompt' unique on the old Mac?

    -> Will VMware provide a Fusion 5 license when the trial period expires on the old Mac before the customer can get a Snow Leopard Server comments work?


    I sent you this link last night via Message private and also posted in your other thread on the subject.  You should be able to use as disk utility here: create a disk image of physical Mac OS X install media.

    If this process fails to create an image that starts on your newer Mac, please let us know, as this is a question we want to address.  I'm not aware of any circumstances which require a downgrade from Fusion 5 install Snow Leopard Server.

    Thank you
