Access denied error while installing the VMWare player on headless centOS
Dear Gurus
I have error installing the VMWare player on the following machine
# uname -a
Linux ks302931.kimsufi.com 2.6.28.1-xxxx-std-ipv4-32 #2 SMP Fri Jan 30 09:55:02 UTC 2009 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux
When I run the RPM installer (As root), I got the following Error:
rpm -e VMware-Player-2.5.2-156735.i386
# rpm -ihv VMware-Player-2.5.2-156735.i386.rpm
Preparing... ########################################### [100%]

Extracting VMware Installer...done.
/var/cache/vmware/VMware-Player-2.5.2-156735.i386.bundle: line 301: /tmp/vmis.y10487/install/vmware-installer/vmware-installer: Permission denied
#
I went to the line 301 in the bundle file, this is what I got:
Line 299 ---># Pass all options the user passed in so that the correct UI type
Line 300 ---># gets set.
Line 301 ---> if ! "$installer" --set-setting vmware-installer.libconf "$libconf" \
--install-component "$source"/vmware-installer \
--install-bundle "$bundle" "$@"; then*
exit 1
fi
return 0
Does anyone know whats going on? what am I doing wrong here?
Any help would be highly appreciated, thanks
