bug: Could not open /dev/vmmon: No such file or directory #79

Closed ghost closed 3 years ago

ghost commented 3 years ago

I have been trying to solve the problem for a long time and everything is in vain

when starting the virtual machine, I get the error Could not open /dev/vmmon: No such file or directory.

Kernel 5.4, openrc, and recompiled https://github.com/mkubecek/vmware-host-modules for my kernel

stefantalpalaru commented 3 years ago

I'm providing a package for those kernel modules: app-emulation/vmware-modules

vmware-workstation comes with an init script called "vmware" that loads those kernel modules. You should add it to your default runlevel and restart it after each vmware-workstation upgrade.

There's a strong dependency between specific vmware-workstation and vmware-modules versions, so don't wing it here. Use the supported setup.

I'm providing a package for those kernel modules: app-emulation/vmware-modules

[ebuild R #] app-emulation/vmware-modules-16.1.0-r1

In fact, I now have a clean Gentoo and your overlay, with no discrepancies between the documentation. runlevel changed, did not help

rc-service vmware status

zcat /proc/config.gz | grep VMWARE gzip: /proc/config.gz: No such file or directory

lsmod | grep vm empty

stefantalpalaru commented 3 years ago

So start the service and add it to the default runlevel. Also, compile those upstreamed kernel modules, if you haven't already.

rc-service vmware start
rc-update add vmware default
ghost commented 3 years ago

ok, i added:

CONFIG_VMWARE_VMCI_VSOCKETS=m
CONFIG_VSOCKETS=m

and while building the kernel, i answer "m"

rc-service vmware start Starting VMware USB Arbitrator ... [ !! ]

rc-update add vmware default

The virtual machine started up, it's good.

  1. What use flags do you recommend?

  2. 3D acceleration does not work.

  3. Network configurator does not work:

    Fail
Network configuration is missing. Ensure that /etc/vmware/networking exists

  4. When starting the virtual machine:

    The specified device is claimed by another driver (cdc_ether) on the host operating system. The device might be in use. To continue, the device will first be disconnected from its current driver.

  5. When starting the virtual machine:

    
VMware Tools for this virtual machine have not been found on your computer. Without VMware Tools, Easy Install will not fully complete.

There may be a version available online; would you like to download and install VMware Tools if found?

Network configurator does not work

"On Linux hosts, select Applications > System Tools > Virtual Network Editor to start the virtual network editor. The menu path might be different for your version of Linux. You can also start the network editor from the command line by using the vmware-netcfg command." - https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-Workstation-Pro/16.0/com.vmware.ws.using.doc/GUID-AC956B17-30BA-45F7-9A39-DCCB96B0A713.html

It will probably want root access to write that config file.

5. nano /etc/portage/package.use

Didn't fix the problem with the dialog, Guest Additions are still not available.

p.s. Well, I really need vmware workstation ...

stefantalpalaru commented 3 years ago

cd /opt/vmware/bin

No, that should already be in your PATH. Do you know how to reload the environment after installing packages?

Something like: . /etc/profile; . ~/.bashrc in your regular shell. More details here: https://dev.gentoo.org/~zmedico/portage/doc/man/env-update.1.html

You're right, it's better this way and initially there were no problems with it. What can you do with everything else?

stefantalpalaru commented 3 years ago

What can you do with everything else?

If I can't replicate it, I can't fix it.

ghost commented 3 years ago

What other data is required from me?

stefantalpalaru commented 3 years ago

No data, just basic system administration. After compiling a new kernel, did you emerge again the package with external kernel modules?

Init scripts are just shell scripts. Do you know how to add set -v in them to see what's executed before a failure? Do you know where your system logs are? Do you run dmesg -T | less to see what the kernel has to say?

All of this is not something I can fix for you, because it's not due to a broken ebuild.

I did differently:

  1. Put a clean system.
  2. I made a backup using clonezilla.
  3. Every time I roll back the changes to a clean OS to debug the work of vmware workstation.

Every time I roll back the changes to a clean OS to debug the work of vmware workstation.

Overkill.

Your "kern.log" shows "/dev/vmmon" being created, so it's just a matter of having the right permissions to access it. Add your regular user to the "vmware" group, logout and login.

"/etc/init.d/vmware" failing to start is probably due to incompatible kernel modules. Re-emerge "vmware-modules" for the new kernel or, better yet, get in the habit of running emerge @module-rebuild every time you build a new kernel.

I am root =) And what does all this have to do with it? I'm having problems with:

2.  When starting the virtual machine:

VMware Tools for this virtual machine have not been found on your computer. Without VMware Tools, Easy Install will not fully complete.

There may be a version available online; would you like to download and install VMware Tools if found?

And you can connect to the X.org server as root?

Considering that I'm only testing (trying to make it work), then yes. Now i need to focus on the main thing. Without vmware workstation, i can not continue doing something further. I am familiar with firejail, sudo, and so on. But I need to get started with vmware workstation.

I compiled gentoo again. The system is clean. The problems are the same.
