Solve the Problem of installing VMware Tools after centos mini Installation

准备工作，先安装必要的组件。

yum -y groupinstall "Perl Support"

yum -y install gcc gcc-c++ automake make kernel-devel

 

然后在vCenter里找到这台服务器，并挂接VMWARE的升级工具(图形操作的略掉)。

mkdir /mnt/cdrom
mount -o loop /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
cd /mnt/cdrom

cp VMwareTools*.* /home

---------------------复制完成以后，就可以断了挂载
umount /mnt/cdrom
rm /mnt/cdrom -rf

 

cd /home

tar zxvf VMwareTools........tgz

cd vm....../

然后安装即可：

./vmware_install.pl

 

如果一些正常，一路回车就可以了。

 

 

==================================================

Searching for GCC...

The path "" is not valid path to the gcc binary.
Would you like to change it? [yes]
如果出现这个就表明gcc没有安装
# yum install gcc gcc-c++ automake make
将编译环境一次装好


Searching for a valid kernel header path...
The path "" is not valid.
Would you like to change it? [yes]
如果出现这个就表示kernel-devel包没有安装
# yum install


成功安装VMware tools时的提示如下，一路回车：
Searching for GCC...
Detected GCC binary at "/usr/bin/gcc".
The path "/usr/bin/gcc" appears to be a valid path to the gcc binary.
Would you like to change it? [no]

Searching for a valid kernel header path...
Detected the kernel headers of the running kernel at
"/lib/modules/2.6.32-71.el6.i686/build/include".
The path "/lib/modules/2.6.32-71.el6.i686/build/include" appears to be a valid
path to the kernel headers of the running kernel.
