Issues with Fedora 21 sharing under VMware 11

VMware 11 under F install FEDORA21, build sharing note:

The Fedora kernel used is: 3.17.4-301.fc21.x86_64

There's no problem with installing again:

[Email protected] vmware-tools-distrib]#./vmware-install.pl

However, after the reboot, go to the virtual machine, view the shared directory, although there is a/mnt/hgfs/directory, but
