Subject:   another vmware issue: post-install exec error
Message-ID:  <3A35233C.DAC68EF0@telecom.ksu.edu>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I cvsup'd my ports tree this morning
then
cd /usr/ports/emulators/vmware2
make
make install

all that was successful, yet, when launching 'vmware' i get a popup
window saying

--snip--
Cannot open vmware executable file.
Possibly an installation error?
Cannot open vmware executable file.
Possibly an installation error?
Cannot open vmware executable file.
Possibly an installation error?
Cannot open vmware executable file.
Possibly an installation error?
Module 10 initialization succeeded
--snip--

it then allows me to go thru and create a new configuration. which
completes
but when i click "Power On" i get:

Could not open /usr/local/lib/vmware/lib/vmm (No such file or directory)

looking in /usr/local/lib/vmware/lib  i see that there is a modules/
that contains  vmmon_smp.ko &  vmmon_up.ko
 ln -s modules/ vmm   doesn't fix, i get

Wrong file format /usr/local/lib/vmware/lib/vmm
