Install VMwareTools fails:
Could not find component on update server. Contact VMware Support or your system administrator.
Google has no answers. Its obviously a strange fault.
any hints? Thx!
The same guest runs on another host, a OpenSuse 10.1, 32 Bit, same Player but 32Bit, same VIX (i386). On this host no error appears, vmware tools are possible to install (at the moment problems to mount the iso ... because of another DVD-ROM device sr0 -> hda , but will be no problem) . It seems to be a problem of the guest.
Host: OpenSuse 11.1 64Bit, VMware-Player-3.1.0-261024.x86_64.bundle, VMware-VIX-1.8.1-207905.x86_64.bundle
Guest: DebianLenny 32Bit , no graphical desktop, konsole only
My Aims: install VmwareTools to synchronise time
