[geloest] Probleme nach VMWare-Tools Update - unary operator

[ds2k5]

Hi,
habe Fedora Linux 17 (64bit) in einer VMWare Virtual Maschine am laufen.
Jetzt habe ich Update der VMWare Tools auf Version 9.0.11.32667 (build-1743336)
gemacht, aber... es schlägt fehl.

# ./vmware-install.pl
...
...
Creating a new initrd boot image for the kernel.

[FAILED]

Im VSphere Client sehe ich: VMWare Tools: not running


Wie kann man das beheben?

Danke

[vl13]

Ist das evtl. ein ueberbleibsel von den alten tools?

Bei den neuen Tool habe ich auf RHEL systemen jetzt ein script das als /etc/init/vmware-tools.conf installiert ist?.

Code: Alles auswählen

description     "VMware Tools services"
author          "VMware, Inc."

# Be sure to block the display managers until our job has completed.  This
# is to make sure our kernel services are running before vmware-user
# may launch.
start on runlevel [235] or starting gdm or starting kdm or starting prefdm
stop on runlevel [06]

pre-start exec /etc/vmware-tools/services.sh start
post-stop exec /etc/vmware-tools/services.sh stop
