  • 1.  RE upgrade 17.5.2 under ubuntu 24.04

    Posted Aug 24, 2024 08:45 AM

    initially installed weeks ago VMware-Workstation-Full-17.5.2-23775571.x86_64.bundle and it worked perfectly until it wanted to run an upgrade a few days ago

    the log files seem to indicate a problem is a library module vmware-11894.log   (/usr/lib/vmware/lib/libvmwareui.so/libvmwareui.so)  this is either being referenced wrongly or is the wrong module for my system

    The host is x86_64.   AMD

    Thanks for the progress Guys seems that my kernel is now all Whoohoo! according to the last log (vmware-30430.log)

    maybe resolving the library undefined's will have it working once the apploader gets a tummy full of the right stuff (apploader log vmware-30430.log

    Cheers, Tony
