I have CentOS 7 64 bit. I have downloaded vmplayer bundle and installed vmplayer using following command
./VMware-Player-6.0.1-1379776.x86_64.bundle
It is installed successfully. Now when I try to open vmplayer on it, it does not load 'Virtual Network Device' and shows following error in terminal
Failed to build vmnet. Failed to execute the build command.
I have installed open-vm-tools on it using command
yum install open-vm-tools
But still I am not able to open vmplayer and still getting same error
When I check status of vmware using service vmware status, it shows
Module vmnet not loaded
When I check status of vmware using systemctl status vmware, it shows
Jan 19 09:23:21 hostname vmware[30246]: Virtual ethernet[FAILED]
Jan 19 09:23:21 hostname vmware[30246]: VMware Authentication Daemon[ OK ]
Jan 19 09:23:21 hostname systemd[1]: vmware.service: control process exited, code=exited status=1
Jan 19 09:23:21 hostname systemd[1]: Failed to start SYSV: This service starts and stops VMware services.
If I try to run
vmware-modconfig --console --install-all
It gives me following error.
make: Leaving directory `/tmp/modconfig-2NfFeS/vmnet-only' Unable to install all modules.
I am not able to open VMplayer on centos 7, please help me to open it.
Thanks
--Kind Regards
