After upgrading to Centos 6.6 My Vmware-workstation stopped working & showing below error while running any virtual machine
Could not open /dev/vmmon: No such file or directory.
Please make sure that the kernel module `vmmon' is loaded.
On terminal vmware status showing below errors & modules not loaded
[root@bhagwat vmware-root]# /etc/init.d/vmware start
Starting VMware services:
Virtual machine monitor [FAILED]
Virtual machine communication interface [ OK ]
VM communication interface socket family [ OK ]
Blocking file system [ OK ]
Virtual ethernet [ OK ]
VMware Authentication Daemon [ OK ]
[root@bhagwat vmware-root]# /etc/init.d/vmware status
Module vmmon not loaded
Module vmnet not loaded
Solution
Solution is very simple just run below commands
/etc/init.d/vmware stop
rm /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/misc/vmmon.ko
vmware-modconfig --console --build-mod vmmon /usr/bin/gcc /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build/include/
sudo depmod -a
/etc/init.d/vmware start
& Done..... Your issue is resolved.
