    Lightbulb Re: VMWare Server 2 on 11.04 Natty Narwhal -> kernel headers error

    Hey sirusdv!

    I am quiet a noob and I like to thank you a lot for sharing your script! Very useful. And I guess it was a lot of work. Also I like to thank the other posters for sharing some more or less useful info.

    So here's my mustard to the topic:

    raduco* 's script works perfectly for my system which is Ubuntu 11.04 64bit with all recent updates.

    I didn't use the attachment presented in this forum it, still installation works perfectly.

    The contents of the raduco*.tar presented on: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/VMware/Server need to be in the same folder as your VMWare-Server-*.tar.gz in my case: VMware-server-2.0.2-203138.x86_64.tar.gz

    I think it's needed to have xinetd or a equal service installed BEFORE you start the installation.
    Also I used the following instructions I took from
    http://blog.dixo.net/2006/06/05/inst...dapper-drake/:
    I did so because I once had problems with the installer finding the kernel-headers (the *.h files, I think)

    sudo apt-get install build-essential
    The install wants inetd or xinetd, I went with xinetd…
    sudo apt-get install xinetd
    Now get your kernel version with uname
    uname -a
    Linux hostname 2.6.15-23-server ...

    Use that info to fetch the kernel headers you need
    sudo apt-get install linux-headers-2.6.15-23-server
    I found it useful to go and symlink the headers to the place the VMWare installer expects to find them
    cd /usr/src/
    sudo ln -s linux-headers-2.6.15-23-server linux
    So after that part I just continued the normal instructions given in raduco*.tar/README and VMServer is running:


    Code:
    /etc/init.d/vmware status
Bridged networking on /dev/vmnet0 is running
Host network detection is not running
Host-only networking on /dev/vmnet1 is running
DHCP server on /dev/vmnet1 is not running
Host-only networking on /dev/vmnet8 is running
DHCP server on /dev/vmnet8 is not running
NAT networking on /dev/vmnet8 is running
Module vmmon loaded
Module vmnet loaded
    So I hope this additions can help some of you a bit to get VMware-server running on a system like mine.

    Greets,

    *cyber-charon*

    Hi,
    I have been trying to install VMware server for a few days now, following various guides and using different patching solutions. But no matter what I try, I always get some error message at the end. Right now I get the error message described below.

    I'm using the latest Ubuntu server LTS, 10.04.2, with Kernel 2.6.32-31-generic on x86_64. Trying to install VMWare server 2.0.2-203138.

    I'm using the same script and patch as this guy did:




    Also, a lot of guides tell me to use files in the /usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.32-31-generic/generated/ directory but I don't have that directory at all.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Thanks in advance!
    I have ubuntu 11.10
    my problem when I do these steps:
    sudo su -

    Re: VMWare Server 2 on 11.04 Natty Narwhal

    No luck here.. I'm having a problem several others are as well, compiling the vmci.ko module is failing. Perhaps it's because it's a 3.0.x kernel, and not a 2.6.x?

    Code:
