./compile.sh issue #87

Closed Maddog99 closed 8 years ago

Maddog99 commented 8 years ago

I am trying to install the patch for VMware Tools 9.9.0 build-2304977. I am using ubuntu 12.04 with VM workstation 11. When I execute the $ sudo ./compile.sh I get the following Usage: ./vmware-install.pl [[-][-]d[efault]] default: Automatically answer questions with the proposed answer. [[-][-]prefix=<path to install product: bin, lib, doc>] Put the installation at instead of the default location. This implies '--default'. --clobber-kernel-modules=<module1,module2,...> Forcefully removes any VMware related modules installed by any other installer and installs the modules provided by this installer. This is a comma separated list of modules.

In looking at the compile.sh, it appears to have the proper arguments.

Any suggestions on what I am probably doing incorrectly?

@Maddog99 you appear to be hitting #86 as the usage doesn't include the force-install option.

Since #86 has been merged in, I'm gonna close this. Please re-open if it's still an issue.
