VMware Workstation 8.0.3 and 16 Fedora (linux x86_64 3.3.6)
All,
Have a moment difficult installation of VMware wkstn 8.0.3 on my 64-bit kernel to run Fedora16 3.3.6. It seems only vmnet fails however, as all other versions seem to complete successfully:
http://darusintegration.blogspot.ca/2012/05/workstation-803-on-Linux.html
This has been reported on several occasions, but this is my blog on the subject... (I used Kubuntu 12.04 x 64)

VMware Workstation 8.0.2 and 4.0.2 Open Source player
I was looking around the area of download for vmware player and I see that there are downloads for Mware Workstation 8.0.2 and 4.0.2 Open Source player. This means that we can build preinstalled vmware and use it for free?
Thank you.

No, but you can use different components in the available packages which are Open Source however the necessary basic elements for virtualization are not Open Source or a part of the Open Source packages available. Suggest you read VMware Workstation 8.0.2 and player 4.0.2 Open Source License for more details.

VMware Workstation Player does not start on Fedora 23
I've recently updated to Fedora 22 23 Fedora and can no longer run VMware Workstation 12.0.1 Player.
I tried to uninstall the component using sudo vmware-Installer - components uninstall = vmware-player and then put it back, nothing will do. The installation is always successful, but when I try to run the application, it runs for a little while, then give up. I tried to uninstall it remove once again the previous configuration, but it still doesn't work.
I am running
Workstation Fedora 23
Linux kernel 4.2.6 - 300.fc23.x86_64
3.18.1 GNOME release
I got it working by following this link: http://rglinuxtech.com/?p=1624
It's a very simple solution. Basically, you just copy the libraries that are not in the directory of vmware.
As root, run the following commands:
# cd /usr/lib/vmware/lib # cp -afv /usr/lib64/libgio-2.0.so.0.4600.2 libgio-2.0.so.0/libgio-2.0.so.0 # cp -afv /usr/lib64/libglib-2.0.so.0.4600.2 libglib-2.0.so.0/libglib-2.0.so.0 # cp -afv /usr/lib64/libgmodule-2.0.so.0.4600.2 libgmodule-2.0.so.0/libgmodule-2.0.so.0 # cp -afv /usr/lib64/libgobject-2.0.so.0.4600.2 libgobject-2.0.so.0/libgobject-2.0.so.0 # cp -afv /usr/lib64/libgthread-2.0.so.0.4600.2 libgthread-2.0.so.0/libgthread-2.0.so.0
Although I have not yet tested all virtual machines, this has at least the operational programme. It should solve the problem entirely. If for some reason vmware is not installed in/usr/lib/vmware, just replace the directory there. If you are unsure, running vmware whereis should tell you.
Edit:
I can say that this solution was able to load my virtual machines with great success. I don't need to reinstall VMWare on one of the boxes of Fedora, however (and removing the configuration files), but after that, it worked fine.

VMWare Workstation on Windows Drag and Drop 8.1 10.0.1 does not
I use VMWare Workstation10.0.1 on a host Windows 8.1 and a guest on Windows Server 2008 R2. Drag / move does not seam to work between the guest and the host. Copy / paste work, just not drag and drop. Drag / drop "Not" work with a Windows 7 guest.
I checked and tried the following:
- Drag and Drop is enabled under Guest insulation.
- I tried re - install the VMWare tools and am sure that they are running.
- I launched VMWare Workstation "as Administrator".
- I'm using a simple file created in Notepad.
I just buy VMWare Worksation 33 days, so I'm 3 days on the support.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

VMware Workstation 10.0.1 and Windows 7 VM crash on CentOS 6.5 host
Just upgraded to 6.5 CentOS 64-bit (2.6.32 - 431.el6.x86_64). After the updates and reboot I launched VMware Workstation 10.0.1 as I normally and began my OpenVPN (Wheezy Debian) VM with all the problems. I then started my Windows 7 64-bit VM and the entire army what OS hangs and I have to reboot using the reset button.
I was able to reproduce twice in a row. The Windows 7 VM seems to start fine and then when I type my credentials in and it starts to load the office which is when everything goes south and the host completely freezes.
The Windows 7 VM has nothing too complicated installed in it. Some Epson software to start uTorrent and printer in network at startup. Steam does as well, but it is not auto-login or do anything really.
I just did some testing of synthetic load and covered all 8 cores (much more than the usual load) up to 24 GB, 32 GB of RAM and 50% of CPU on the host computer and things remained stable. I thought that a second question could be RAM related because after a soft on boot the Windows 7 VM running I am to about 7 GB of RAM used on the host computer and from the WIndows 7 VM would put me over 8 GB, which resembled a number of nice where things might go wrong If it is RAM related.

Can't build the kernel Linux in VMware Workstation 7.0 modules
Hi, I have VMware Workstation 7.0 installed on a Fedora 20 x86_64 system, and I can't get past the 'install' kernel modules I looked around, but and I tried some things but none have worked. Is there anyone here who knows how to create and load the modules in the kernel for my system. The kernel is 3.13.8 - 200.fc20.x86_64 - x86_64.
Thank you
Fedora is not a host operating system support however is not officially supported and may / will this market are separate things.
I have VMware Workstation 10 running under Fedora 20 on the stock kernel however the core of 3.13.x is not yet supported on supported OS host and modules need to be patched.
VMware Workstation 7 is probably to old for work, unless you can find patches of third parties to the versions of core and WS.

VMware Workstation 7 and Modem USB Huawei E1550 broadband
I have Modem Huawei E1550 Broadband USB.
I install the software and it works fine without problem.
When I connect the Windows 7 Ultimate x 64 identify two piece of hardware (CD-ROM and 3 G USB Modem).
I install VMware Workstation 7.
Windows 7 stop identify Modem USB when I connect it and when I try to quit after removing the USB Modem, he never stop
I'm trying to uninstall VMware workstation 7
The return of the Modem to work.
I install VMware Workstation 7 again.
The modem stop to rework
What should I do to work around this problem?
As a test, you can re - install vmware workstation (the latest version) and after the installation if you meet him problem go to Microsft services
> Start > run > servics.msc
find the Vmware USB arbitration service
Double-click on > Startup Type > set to manual > click stop > OK
Now, make sure your devices are running, or you can always restart as well. Now, you will not be able to use "pass through" for your virtual machines, but this seems to be a bug known, and currently no ETA
Now, for a permanent solution to the users have restarted no problem with the help of Vmware Workstation 6.5 - this thread also covers this:

VMware WorkStation Pro 12.1.0 menu not visible top-level, suggestions
I have been using Workstation of V9 without many questions about Linux x86_64 for quite awhile.
I used v12.0.1 fine without any problem.
Since I upgraded to 12.1.0 my menu level higher in the windowed and full-screen seem to be white text on a white background
-The menu seems to be there but is not visible, the spacing is
-The drop-down menus are visible when the 'high-level' menu is selected.
Because I know that the product, I can work around you don't see is not the top-level menus, but it is a pain.
I use Fedora x86_64 cinnamon, a spin of Gnome 3 22.
Any ideas will be appreciated.
Image 1 shows the current problem in v12.1.0, image 2 shows the menu v12.0.1
I have exactly the same problem... my host OS is Fedora x86_64 cinnamon 21.
I backed to 12.0.1 or 12.0.0 - but the problem with each of these versions is I can not move (rearrange) none of the virtual machines in the left menu. This seems to have been fixed with the 12.1.0 release.

You want to install VMware Workstation 11.1.1 on new 8.1 Windows Pro 64-bit PC.
I had VMware Workstation 11.1.0, and deleted the original installer but did not finish the installation of the new version
The installer gets about 2/3 way (progress bar) and then crashes, Windows Installer says Event Viewer hung.
Race tried without firewall and AV, always not install question
A ran the installer with / clean option and then tried again, but still he did not finish the installation process (crashes at the same place)
Noticed in the Manager tasks that VMware Installer runs at about 14% of CPU, but nothing happens
I'm really at a loss as to why I can't install VMware Workstation 11.1.1, all the other soft\ware settles very well.
Please could someone help me?
Thank you

Fatal error VMWare Workstation: (vmx)
Hello
I created a VM to Oracle Red Hat Linux Enterprise (RHEL 5) and got this error message. This virtual machine is used as a database (Oracle, RedHat) server and connected to another virtual computer that is used as a device.
I'm using VMWare Workstation version 9.02 and installed in Windows 7 64 bit. In this virtual machine, I created a snapshot. The last State of the virtual machine is interrupted and all I take it back, this error is displayed. I can't change the settings and go back also to any cliché that created before.
I tried to restart the VMWare services and also used an earlier version of VMWare Workstation version 9.01, but he always does'nt work.
I have attached the log file. No idea how I can fix this problem?
Thanks for any help
You must take the State suspended - something serious has changed since suspend you the VM.
Looking at the newspaper, I guess that you do not have the same mouse than the one that you used when the virtual machine is suspended.Delete these files:
G:\RHEL 5 2.6 18-8 x86_64\Oracle RHEL 5 2.6. 18-8 x86_64 - Snapshot14.vmsn
G:\RHEL 5 2.6 18-8-x86_64\564d16bd-1ae0-7f67-3423 - 5ff35c59b4e7.vmem
Remove these lines from the vmx:
checkpoint.vmState.readOnly = 'TRUE '.
checkpoint.vmState = 'Oracle RHEL 5 2.6 18 - 8 x86_64 - Snapshot14.vmsn.
Then try to start the virtual machine - this time, it should not crash.
It can still display a warning on a disc that could have a repair, but this could be a bluff, and we can deal with that later. -
Fatal error of VMware Workstation
Hello
I have serious problems with VMware Workstation (version 9.02) and unique virtual machine to Windows 8. VMware Workstation is installed x 64 host Windows 8. This unique virtual machine crashes randomly with the following error message:
I have other virtual machines also but I have no problems with them. First of all, I thought it was a physical disk error and I moved this virtual machine to another drive, but it did not help. I reinstalled VMware Tools and even created a new virtual machine and cloned this issue with Acronis Backup & Restore machine for this. This due to the machine crashes with the same error, but every time you start so things went even worse.
Any ideas what to do with it?
I attach a log file.

I updated to VMware Workstation 10 and reinstalled the whole problematic virtual machine from scratch, but it still crashed at random several times a day with the same error.
But now things look well so far.
Yesterday, I changed a setting. I unchecked "Accelerate 3D Graphics" settings of the virtual machine (under the display settings). After that, the virtual machine crashed 0 times and I've been using a whole day! I have Nvidia display with the latest adapter drivers Win 8.1 x 64 installed on the host machine. I think drivers Nvidia has something to do with this virtual machine crashing, maybe...
I started to suspect the display driver Nvidia after seeing this nvd3dumpx.dll appears more than once in the log file (this is VMware Workstation logfile ater the crash):

VMWare Workstation Lab for VCP, online options
Hello
Someone at - it a laboratory ESX or ESXi secure Channel in VMWare Workstation installation? I want to install a couple of ESX? ESXi hosts to perform vmotion, DRS, etc but I got contradictory about whether VMware information if possible. I do not expect to be supported.
I would be grateful anyway - of. If this is not possible, I would that all recommendations for affordable online labs.
Thank you

Hello...
I followed what Sean Duffy suggested here:
Worked a treat.
I am currently running under workstation 8.
- 2 * servers Windows 2008 (Server AD & VC)
- A NAS
- 2 * ESXi hosts
I then nest my virtual machines under ESXi hosts and can test all the features I need.
My PC spec is:
CPU - I7 2600 K
RAM - 16 GB
Storage - 120 GB SSD for the VMDK. I was running on my NetGear readyNAS, but found the performance was a little painful, especially when turning on/off or suspend the VMs (UN).
My only complaint is that my VMWare Workstation expired evaluation license and currently waiting for my license after having passed my VCP. (even if it's another story/thread)
For my Windows servers, I have a technet subscription.
For ESXi, I'll have to re - install, but it's no biggie.
I would like to see VMTN subscriptions available, but again, this is another thread.

How to run VMWare workstation as a service?
Hello
I installed VMware Workstation 7 (latest version) and created a virtual machine. The problem is that once I have disconnected the host, the virtual machine stops!
Is there a setting to prevent this? It should be able to run VMWare Workstation as a service.
Thank you
M.R.
Running a process that wasn't supposed to be run as a service was taken over ad nauseam on Internet Google is your friend.
Although it is possible to start the process as a service, however unless you use a program that can well handle the cessation of treatment and or restart the messages from the host and transmit them to the virtual machine, then it does not really work as a true service since it will not be the appropriate communication channels to activate the Virtual Machine to make a correct and controlled stop when the host is restarted or shutdown and that can damage the Virtual Machine. If you plan to run a VM as a Service under VMware Workstation then I offer so you have good backups (which we should have anyway) and make sure you have access to working distance before running it as a service you can do a controlled stop on the VM before the reboot or shutdown of the host if you have not a utility appropriate to deal with it properly and safely.
Another option is to use VMware Server, but keep in mind it seems to be the end of life and not maintained more.

Move a VM from VMWare Workstation 7 to VMWare Server 2
Hi all:
I had to create a virtual machine in VMware Workstation 7 manually prepare and now I need to move it to VMWare Server 2, which is used to run automated tests. It is our usual working process.
I would like to know if there is a problem with it, because the process of setting up the machine took several hours, install programs, and to configure, you know.
Should I edit the .vmx file? I copied the machine using scp, since the destination that VMware Server is installed on a remote computer; I can access which the machine in ssh and web.
Thanks in advance for your attention and your time and best regards,
Luis
If the virtual machine was powered (non-suspended) offshore before moving them to the destination, you should be able to turn on without problems. Both VMware Workstation 7.x and VMware Server 2.x can use hardware virtual version 7 (http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1003746), which is probably the most important thing.
If you don't know, create a snapshot before you turn on the virtual machine to the remote site, in this way that the virtual disks have changed.
If the copied virtual machine snapshots, you will not be able to come back to them on the new hardware if they were taken while the virtual machine is running.
