  • VCenter Installation Error 28038
    • ]]>     I have a OpenSuSE 11 running on my laptop VMware Workstation 6.5.1 recently. During VMware Tools installation, I found a weird error show as below:

    “The following VMware kernel modules have been found on your system that were not installed by the VMware Installer. Please remove them then run this installer again.”

    vmblock
    vmhgfs
    vmmemctl
    vmxnet

     

    Execution aborted.

    VMware kernel

    Solutions are:

    # rm /lib/modules/2.6.25.5-1.1-default/updates/vmblock.ko
    # rm /lib/modules/2.6.25.5-1.1-default/updates/vmhgfs.ko
    # rm /lib/modules/2.6.25.5-1.1-default/updates/vmmemctl.ko
    # rm /lib/modules/2.6.25.5-1.1-default/updates/vmxnet.ko

    Configure VMware Tools again!
    # vmware-config-tools.pl

    Probably you may refer to VMware tools for Linux for more about VMware Tools installations.
