• VMware Tools upgrade fails with the error

  12 Pro - 12.1.0 workstation build-3272444

  Individual license

  Guest operating system: Ubuntu 14.10 64-bit

  VMware Tools: 9.6.2.31837 (build 1688356)

  Virtual MACHINE works fine except...

  Updated the VMware Tools, download stage publishes a message and is abandoned:
  Error: There was a problem updating a software component.   Try again later and if the problem persists, contact your system administrator or the VMware support.

  I can't find useful this question online resolution.  Perhaps this community can help find a solution?

  Furthermore, I also have a VM for 64-bit Ubuntu 15.10 who works with success the VMware Tools 10.0.1.357 (build 3160059).

  I need to run both versions of Ubuntu for software compatibility.

  Maybe you can try to get the packages of the latest VMTools from their repo upgrade server: filing of CDS - /var/www/public/stage/session-59/cds/vmw-desktop/ws/12.1.0/3272444/windows/packages

• VMware Tools upgrade changes machineID, breaks the issuance of licenses for some applications

  We have this application called localization, manufactured by Hyland Software. Whenever I've upgrade VMware Tools on our ESXi hosts on all virtual machines, it breaks the granting of licenses for the application and localization will not work until the licensing is completely redone. No idea why this is happening?

  Below is the reading of the application regarding the issuance of licenses, and attached is a screenshot of the error in the application. I'm certainly not asking someone to solve the problem of the application, but what on earth could possibly VMTools change that would have caused this? Thanks in advance!

  If this is what is causing the problem?

  I'm sure of it - about 99.9% Yes.

  And if so, what changes would affect a particular software feature licenses?

  "All the virtual machines have a hardware version, which shows the characteristics of virtual hardware that supports the virtual machine, such as BIOS or EFI, number of virtual slots, maximum number of processors, the maximum memory configuration and other features material." - from http://www.vmware.com/products/datacenter-virtualization/vsphere/compute.html

  They probably linked the license to an individual (or several) attribute of the "hardware" of the virtual machine. Think of it regarding a physical system - changed nothing in the operating system (at least not GUID, MSN, etc.), it was something that the operating system has access to related material. You could probably bug them enough and get them to reveal madness method they use for this, but I don't know if it would be really useful. You can leave virtual to older material , to some extent, which means that you can reduce the number of times you have to repeat this process.

• automate vmware tools upgrade / installation

  Hello

  I found this on a post on communities to automate the vmware tools update / install:

  $installerArgs = "REBOOT ="ReallySuppress"'"

  Get - VM | % {(Get-vue $_).} UpgradeTools_Task ($installerArgs)}

  Variable initialization happens witout no Pb, but when I copy the second line (with a machine virtual name suite Get - VM of course) it gives me this:

• Backup impossible vm using vcbmounter after vmware tools upgrade

  Hello

  I have updated the VMware tools to version 3.5.0 Build-130756 on 1 of my Windows 2003 servers. Since then, I struggle to save this virtual machine with vcb, I get the following message: "vcbmounter could not find vitual machine specified by ipaddr. Every morning, I see that this virtual machine has not been saved. I noticed that reboot/Shudown comments options are grayed out in vCenter. In order to safeguard, I have to restart the vmware tools and then stop and restart options are greyed out no longer and I can run my backup task using vcb with no problems. I tried to uninstall and then install vmware tools yesterday, but the backup did not work this morning for the same reason as the previous days.

  No idea how can I fix?

  Thanks in advance

  Nicolas

  I'm happy to hear. Thank you

• Taking a lot of time to load YouTube videos.

  For the last month or so any Youtube video I watch takes around one minute before it begins to play. I cleared my cache and cookies many times. In fact, I formatted my computer and upgraded to windows 8.1 today, and this problem persists. I adblock active but I tried to disable that and the problem remains. I also tried the HTML5 and Flash from Youtube versions and nothing has worked.

  Using any other browsers, videos from Youtube to play instantly.

  Videos do this, or just some videos?

  To me, YouTube videos start playing until the page is completely loaded. I'm not sure of what could be the cause.

I work with photo and video stuff, I always install and uninstall programs, so I thought that maybe make my pc speed. and if the regestry is incharge thereon, is there somehow or no software to clean the registry database or to do something?

  Is your system error free?

  To access the system log, select Start, Control Panel, administrative tools, Event Viewer, in the list on the left of the window select Windows and the system logs. Place the cursor on the system, right click and select filter current log. Check the front of the error and click OK and see you only reports errors. Click header to sort on the Date and time. You may need to click a second time to see the last report above.
   
  A tip for posting copies of error reports! Run Event Viewer and double-click the error you want to copy. In the window, you will see a button resembling two pages. Click on the button and close Event Viewer. Now start your message and paste it into the body of the message. Make sure that it is the first dough right out of the event viewer.

  I suggest you download Process Explorer.
  For more information about Process Explorer, see here:
  http://www.Microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/SystemInformation/ProcessExplorer.mspx

  This freeware utility performs a similar function to the Windows Task Manager, but it goes much further.

  In process Explorer, please add a column. Select View, Select, columns, process, performance, and check the box before the start time. Then, select "Show processes from all Users" and click on the 'Start Time' column header. This will sort so that you can see start with the first sooner. You may need to click twice or three times.

  On my Windows 7 machine, the first point I see is smss.exe = Manager of Session. You should then see a long list of items over a short period of time to load. The boot process is not responding on my computer with two files AVG loading (my anti-virus is AVG 10. Before these two files is a file uns.exe that loaded this morning 2 minutes and 20 seconds after smss.exe. USN.exe is a file of Intel, so may not be on your computer.

  
  Questions. How long it take to smss.exe loading to the main files to load? What are the files that arrive at the end, and how long does it take so that they appear after smss.exe?

  Can you also detail what anti-malware software is installed?

  Hope this helps, Gerry Cornell

• Windows 7 startup home taking a lot of time

  Hi team,
  Start Windows 7 takes a long time and its nearly 3-5 min. When I checked the event logs, I found the below error message and found a lot of timeout messages.
  "Service 'WMPNetworkSvc' not started correctly as CoCreateInstance (CLSID_UPnPDeviceFinder) has detected the error '0x80004005'. Check that the UPnPHost service is running and that the UPnPHost Windows component is installed correctly".
  "DCOM got error"1053"try to start the service gusvc with arguments" "to start the server:
  {89DAE4CD-9F17-4980-902A-99BA84A8F5C8} '.
  Also, I have my laptop always attended more than 1.5 GB of memory each time, even if I do not open any application it consumes about 1 GB.
  Could you tell me what would cause this problem and how to optimize performance.
  Thanks in advance!
  Kind regards
  ARI

  Hi Ari,

  This problem can occur because of disk space low, due to the infection by the virus, or if there are a lot of programs configured to start automatically when Windows starts.

  What is the brand and model of the computer?

  Method 1:
  I suggest to run the troubleshooter of performance and check if it helps.

  Open the troubleshooter of Performance
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/open-the-performance-Troubleshooter

  Method 2:

  If the problem persists, we will start the computer Safe Mode to check if the problem occurs in Mode safe. If the problem does not occur in Mode safe, then you can try to set up your computer in a clean boot state to find what startup item or service is causing the problem.

  Step 1:
  To restart in Safe Mode, see the link.

  Startup options (including safe mode)

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode

  If the problem does not occur in Mode without failure, then you try to put the computer in a clean boot state.

  Step 2:
  To perform Clean boot follow the procedure below.

  Affecting the system in a clean boot state will help you determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem.

  How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

  Note: After the boot minimum troubleshooting step, follow the "How to reset the computer to start as usual after a clean boot troubleshooting" section in the link provided to return the computer to a Normal startup mode.

  Method 3:
  If the problem persists, I suggest you try the procedure described in the article and see if it helps.

  Note: Try all the steps except troubleshooter.

  Optimize Windows 7 for better performance
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/optimize-Windows-7-for-better-performance

  Note:

  1) disk cleanup cleans the files associated with your user account. You can also use Disk Cleanup to clean all the files on your computer.

  2) data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means there is a risk of data loss.

  line-by-line UPDATE is slow by slow transformation

  In Oracle no other session can 'see' upgrade from uncommitted changes.

  The only way to significantly reduce the elapsed time is to have only 1 UPDATE & 1 COMMIT!

  Regarding:

  ORA-06502: PL/SQL: digital or value error: character string buffer too small

  Maybe it's that must be reported

  pub_rec varchar2 (2000);

  as more large and variable. Set it to:

  pub_rec varchar2 (32767).

  then adjust the max_linesize thus, when you open your file:

  fil_typ_pub: = utl_file.fopen(dir_name,v_file_name,'w',32767);

• Why the update for win - 7 taking a lot of time?

  Hello world

  Win - 7 being a new OS a thought that the update would be frequently, but I get each month update

  so my question is there is a problem in my OS or update takes a long time

  thanx

  Updates are usually released in batches on the second and fourth Tuesday of each month. Most of the security-related updates are published the second Tuesday.

  The next round of updates will be published on Tuesday, 09-Feb-10. See http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/bulletin/ms10-feb.mspx. ~ Robear Dyer (PA Bear) ~ MS MVP (that is to say, mail, security, Windows & Update Services) since 2002 ~ WARNING: MS MVPs represent or work for Microsoft

• Application settings taking a lot of time in XP Pro

  What is strange, when I disconnect the network manager, it loads very quickly to the login screen.  If I reboot with the person responsible for the network is plugged, it hangs for about 3 minutes until he gets to the login screen.  Checking the same observer, I get errors that the machine could not run a Group Policy object.  I enabled netbios over tcp/ip without result and disabled the webclient service via a KB from Microsoft support.

  I even got the latest patches and service packs for this machine, but it still takes Abu three minutes to apply the settings of the computer before you get to the login screen?  Other experts ideas that I could try to get this up and running?  Thank you.

  Try moving the computer to a different OU in AD.  We had the same problem and it was an old script that was trying to load that was dead.  I hope this helps...

• Windows 7 Home Edition, taking a lot of time to install updates

  I shut down my computer last night and Windows said it would install 47 updates. When I got up at 7:00, it's always the update number 8. Is this normal?

  Some updates are small, but some are large.  If one of these updates was to SP1, we can take an hour or two.   But assuming that it was more than 6 hours between the time that you have already told him to stop and 07:00, which seems like a very long time.
