[Q] GSX Server for Linux doesn't work - how to resolve the issue?

Hello everyone!

I've installed the GSX Server 3.2 on a Linux box according to instructions in docs. Installation scripts told me that installation is successful, however, I have problems with the server - when I start VMware Virtual Machine Console on the host machine (execute vmware &) and try to connect to the local host, I get a message after some minutes of waiting with 100% CPU load:

"The local VMware GSX Server is not installed, or is not currently running.

Make sure that the server is properly installed and try again."[/i]

(VMware scripts (/etc/rc.d/vmware and /etc/rc.d/httpd.vmware were executed before this).

Here is the listing of successful execution of /usr/bin/vmware-config.pl:

"Press "Enter" to continue...

Starting VMware services:

   Virtual machine monitor                                             done

   Virtual ethernet                                                    done

   Bridged networking on /dev/vmnet0                                   done

The configuration of VMware GSX Server 3.2.1 build-19281 for Linux for this

running kernel completed successfully."[/i]

And here is what I get later in the command line:

# ./vmware status

./vmware: line 1017: status: command not found

./vmware: line 1018: status: command not found

./vmware: line 1019: status: command not found

Module vmmon loaded

Module vmnet loaded[/i]

and, for example:

bash-2.05b# ./httpd.vmware start

   Starting httpd.vmware:                                              done

bash-2.05b# ./httpd.vmware status

./httpd.vmware: line 106: status: command not found

bash-2.05b#  /i

I use Linux kernel (2.6.13) which has Real-time clock built-in and parallel port PC-style compiled as module.

How one can resolve this issue and get GSX server up and running?

Thank you!
