Pasos para la instalación de wmware-server-2.0.2 en Ubuntu 10.04 LTS lucid lynx
Hace ya un mes que uso la beta de lucid. Hoy he recordado que todavía no había probado vmware-server en este servidor así que vamos a ver que problemas encontramos.
Básicamente vamos a hacer lo mismo que para karmic:
- instalar vmware-server
- aplicar el parche de ubuntugeek
Pero además para conseguir que todo compile en un kernel 2.6.32 necesitaremos...
modificar manualmente un par de ficheros más:
vmnet-only/vnetUserListener.c vmci-only/linux/vmciKernelIf.c
Nota: al final de este post he añadido un comentario sobre las vmware-tools en máquinas virtuales Ubuntu Lucid 10.04 LTS
Os resumo el proceso paso a paso:
Necesitaremos un entorno de compilación básico para poder compilar los módulos de vmware; con el siguiente comando instalaremos todo los programas que vamos a necesitar así como sus dependencias:
~# aptitude update ~# aptitude -y install build-essential linux-headers-$(uname -r) psmisc
Descomprimimos el paquete de vmware-server para la instalación:
~# tar xvf VMware-server-2.0.2-203138.i386.tar.gz
Procedemos a realizar la instalación:
~# cd /tmp/vmware-server-distrib/ ~# ./vmware-install.pl
Al llegar a la compilación de los módulos de vmware vemos que se produce el error de las últimas distribuciones:
None of the pre-built vmmon modules for VMware Server is suitable for your
running kernel. Do you want this program to try to build the vmmon module for
your system (you need to have a C compiler installed on your system)? [yes]
Using compiler "/usr/bin/gcc". Use environment variable CC to override.
What is the location of the directory of C header files that match your running
kernel? [/lib/modules/2.6.32-21-generic/build/include]

Hmm, esto nos suena bastante así que manos a la obra, descargamos e instalamos los parches de ubuntugeek:

No nos desanimemos. Busquemos más información... Según Noel de vmware communities hay que parchear los ficheros:
vmnet-only/vnetUserListener.c vmci-only/linux/vmciKernelIf.c
añadiendo un «#include "compat_sched.h"» en cada uno de ellos.
Como ya hemos enredado mucho restauramos los fuentes según nos indicaba la salida del primer intento:
~# cd /usr/lib/vmware/modules ~# rm -r source ~# mv source-backup source
ahora modificamos los ficheros de la siguiente forma (podríamos rehacer el parche pero es mas trabajo); empezamos con vnetUserListener.c:
~# cd source/ ~# tar xvf vmnet.tar ~# vim vmnet-only/vnetUserListener.c
Entre el listado de includes añadimos «#include "compat_sched.h"» y volvemos a empaquetar el tar:
~# tar cvf vmnet.tar vmnet-only ~# rm -r vmnet-only
Ahora hacemos lo mismo con vmciKernelIf.c:
~# tar xvf vmci.tar ~# vim vmci-only/linux/vmciKernelIf.c
Volvemos a añadir un «#include "compat_sched.h"» entre el resto de includes y reempaquetamos el fichero tar:
~# tar cvf vmci.tar vmci-only/ ~# rm -r vmci-only
Con esos cambios volvemos a ejecutar el parche descargado de ubuntugeek:
~# cd /tmp/
~# ./vmware-server.2.0.1_x64-modules-2.6.30.4-fix.sh

Done!
I have changed the files in here:
/usr/lib/vmware/modules/source
I have placed a backup of the original files in here:
/usr/lib/vmware/modules/source-backup
The original VMware modules directory is still in the way.
Please move this directory somewhere else, because it confuses VMware:
/usr/lib/vmware/modules/binary
This command should work now, to install the modules:
vmware-config.pl -d

Ya disponemos de nuevo de nuestro servidor vmware-server-2.0.2 en nuestro novísimo Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx
vmware-tools para máquinas virtuales ubuntu 10.04¿Y que pasa con las vmware-tools en máquinas virtuales Ubuntu 10.04?
Seguramente la pregunta necesite un post nuevo; pero como seguro que tarde o temprano todos los que estáis interesados en este tema tendréis que abordarlo, lo añado aquí.
He tratado de instalar las vmware-tools en máquinas virtuales Ubuntu 10.04 pero me ha resultado imposible hacer que funcionen todos los módulos.
No perdáis el tiempo con las vmware tools oficiales. Hay un desfase enorme entre ellas y los kernels más nuevos.
En lugar de perder el tiempo con las vmware tools nativias utilizar la versión opensource. Podéis realizar la instalación como sigue:
~# apt-get update ~# apt-get install --no-install-recommends open-vm-tools open-vm-dkms
El --no-install-recommends es para evitar que se nos instalen librerías X11 en nuestras VMs tipo server (sin gui).
En caso de que vuestras VMs sean escritorios ejecutad:
~# apt-get update ~# apt-get install open-vm-tools open-vm-dkms
En vmware-server veréis que manteneis toda la funcionalidad que pudieráis tener con las vmware-tools nativas.
