I’ve installed the last version of VMware player (4.0.2) and created a virtual machine with ubuntu 10.04. However, some operations with virtual machine cause errors which I’m confused about. For example, attempts to Install VMware tools fail with
Could not find component on update server. Contact VMware support or your system administrator.
error message.
Please help with an advice about how can I make it work. Thanks in advance.
It seems there is a bug in vmware 4.0.2
I was also experiencing the same problem when i installed ubuntu 11.10
Please try to uninstall and install vmware player 4.0.1
That may solve the problem
