Hi,
I am having a problem with WSX 1.0.2 on a CentOS 6.3 64 bits box (with Python 2.6.6 installed).
Once installed WSX starts and I am able to connect.
As soon as the server is restarted, WSX fails to start, both at startup and manually (i.e. if I run /etc/init.d/vmware-wsx-server restart).
The only way to start WSX and connect to it is to uninstall it an re-installit after each server reboot. Very annoying.
I did some tests and these are the outputs:
invoking the executable stright away gives this error:
[root@chris piero]# vmware-wsx-server
Cannot open self /usr/lib/vmware/lib/wsx/vmware-wsx-server or archive /usr/lib/vmware/lib/wsx/vmware-wsx-server.pkg
invoking it through python gives this one:
[root@chris piero]# python /usr/lib/vmware/lib/wsx/vmware-wsx-server
File "/usr/lib/vmware/lib/wsx/vmware-wsx-server", line 1
SyntaxError: Non-ASCII character '\x83' in file /usr/lib/vmware/lib/wsx/vmware-wsx-server on line 2, but no encoding declared; see http://www.python.org/peps/pep-0263.html for details
Looks like there is a problem with the encoding, but I am no coder and I am not sure where to go from there.
Any idea?
