VMware-player vmnet0-problem

[Tobse82]

Hi everybody


i have got a problem with my VirtualMachine.

System:
Ubuntu 9.0.4 + VMware-Player 2.5.3 ( Windows-XP )

I installed the VMware-Player and ran the VM. Everything worked fine at the beginnung.
I installed some software at the XP-VM. No problems so far.

But from the third or fourth restart of the VM, the VMware-player couldn't manage to get the network running.

ErrorText was the following:
"The network bridge on device vmnet0 is temporarily down because the bridged Ethernet interface is down."

PS: the network connection on the Ubuntu-System is fine :)
its just the vm, that fails...


I didn't find anything according to this problem in the forum. Maybe some of you has got an idea? :)

thanks so far

greetings
toby

I asked that question in the main forum.

Downgrade your player and you can at least run the VM. I am still looking for a solution for the current player.

Yep. i found your thread previously.
I was just wondering why it worked for some hours...
