The tools for Windows 8 runs internal to Windows and shows up in the Windows system tray. whatever it is does not complete and VMware player will not run without it. It's talking about a "kernel module updater". I never had an IS image of anything to start with and I can't find anything like that on my system. It still looks like it't trying to compile something.

Wherever you get the Tools ISO file from, mount it in your Virtual CDROM, find the Windows versions and install.Ĭode: In file included from /usr/src/linux-4.4.76-1/include/linux/pci.h:36:0, from /tmp/modconfig-kkzFsP/vmnet-only/compat_netdevice.h:27, from /tmp/modconfig-kkzFsP/vmnet-only/bridge.c:51: /usr/src/linux-4.4.76-1/include/linux/pci_ids.h:2255:0: note: this is the location of the pre vious definition #define PCI_VENDOR_ID_VMWARE 0x15ad ^ /usr/src/linux-4.4.76-1/Makefile:1428: recipe for target '_module_/tmp/modconfig-kkzFsP/vmnet -only' failed make: *** Error 2 Makefile:150: recipe for target 'sub-make' failed make: *** Error 2 Makefile:24: recipe for target '_sub-make' failed make: *** Error 2 make: Leaving directory '/usr/src/linux-4.4.76-1-obj/x86_64/default' Makefile:120: recipe for target 'vmnet.ko' failed make: *** Error 2 make: Leaving directory '/tmp/modconfig-kkzFsP/vmnet-only' Starting VMware services: Virtual machine monitor failed Virtual machine communication interface done VM communication interface socket family done Blocking file system done Virtual ethernet failed VMware Authentication Daemon done ^C is the tail of what I get when I open a terminal box and run 'vmplayer'.

Windows does not do anything special to provide and install VMware Tools so in the case of Windows Guests, you still need to install Tools which are either provided by the VMware Application (common nowadays, should be in the root of the VMware application and is an ISO file) or download the file from VMware. Nowadays VMware Tools are distributed as part of Linux distros, and in the case of openSUSE when the install detects a VMware environment will automatically install (Other distros like Debian require package installation). Tools are provided by an ISO file which is mounted, either manually in the Guest's virtual CDROM or clicking on a link in the Guest window that mounts for you automatically. There is no compiling or building required. So, if you just click on that link first, you'll only see a general information page. That's why I was so specific about that requirement. I thought I was attempting to compile monitor and networking services, not Windows tools?The link won't work until you login to VMware, What did you mean that this was specific to Windows 8 guest on a Linux host.
I'm not sure what the link above was to but it didn't go anywhere when i clicked on it other then the VMware support query widget interface. rpm file for kernel symbols as in the past or some other issue I'm not aware of? I'm not sure what else I would likely need to get this to run. I have the kernel and sources along with the development bits for kernel modules. If you have this working I'd like to know what parts aren't included in my install to get this to work.
I was actually surprised there was a problem as I've been using VMware Player for years and for openSuse long before the Leap series. Then I get a popup that VMware cannot start services and to look at the log files which says much the same. "Stoping VMware Services: Compiling Virtual Machine Monitor" and "Compiling Virtual Network Device" with both flagged with caution signs and depmod not running. The problem is that when I try to run the Windows guest I get this: TSUThis is a guest Windows 8 installation used to run MS Office for my Masters program.
If there is something else I haven't checked that's not working, pls post. I've checked the video driver, shared directories, hardware pass through. I wrote the following SDB:VMware Tools awhile back, and haven't noticed anything lacking in 42.3. You'd have to be running a very old Linux kernel for VMware Tools not to be included in the kernel (or running a Debian kernel). I have not noticed anything not working in 42.3 (as a Guest) running in VMware Workstation 2.5.7.Īnd, there should not be a problem.
