Since it was necessary to use a different method for installing VMware-Tools, make a note of that method as a memorandum.
--OS is Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.6 --VMware-Tools is downloaded from the VMware official website --The target software is VMware-Tools-10.1.0-core-4449150.tar.gz
From VMware official website (https://my.vmware.com/web/vmware/details?downloadGroup=VMTOOLS1010&productId=614) Download VMware-Tools-10.1.0-core-4449150.tar.gz.
Upload the file to / tmp using TeraTerm or scp.
Execution command
scp VMware-Tools-10.1.0-core-4449150.tar.gz [User name]@[IP address]:/tmp
Use the ls command to check the execution result.
Check result
ls /tmp
VMware-Tools-10.1.0-core-4449150.tar.gz
Unzip the uploaded file
Execution command
cd /tmp
tar zxvf VMware-Tools-10.1.0-core-4449150.tar.gz
Use the ls command to check the execution result. The vmtools directory is created.
Check result
ls /tmp
vmtools
Mount linux.iso in the created directory.
Execution command
mount /tmp/vmtools/linux.iso /mnt
Unzip VMwareTools-10.1.0-4449150.tar.gz in linux.iso. If you already have this file, the above procedure is not necessary and you can unzip this file in an appropriate directory.
Execution command
mkdir /tmp/work
cp /mnt/VMwareTools-10.1.0-4449150.tar.gz /tmp/work
cd /tmp/work
tar zxvf VMwareTools-10.1.0-4449150.tar.gz
Use the ls command to check the execution result. The vmware-tools-distrib directory is created.
Check result
ls /tmp/work
vmware-tools-distrib/
I finally came to a familiar sight. Execute the perl script of the installer.
Execution command
cd /tmp/work/vmware-tools-distrib/
./vmware-install.pl
If the following error message is output at this point, perl is not installed, so perl is installed.
Error message
-bash: ./vmware-install.pl: /usr/bin/perl:Wrong interpreter:There is no such file or directory
Install perl.
install perl
yum install perl
Run the installer again.
Execution command
./vmware-install.pl
You will be asked for the settings in a wizard format, but please set them as you like. Finally, when the message Enjoy appears, the installation is complete.
