VMware cannot start a virtual machine after using secure boot

Initial error when installing VMware gtk-message:failed to load Module "Canberra-gtk-module": libcanberra-gtk-module.so:cannot open shared object File:no such file or directory gtk-message:failed to load module "Pk-gtk-module": libpk-gtk-module.so:cannot open shared object File:no such file or directory

However, the installation interface can be opened, can be installed normally, but after the installation, the startup of the virtual machine again error, unable to start the VM.

Could not Open/dev/vmmon:?????????.
Sure the kernel module ' Vmmon ' is loaded.

Tip: Unable to load Vmmon this module. However, after viewing: the "/lib/modules/4.4.0-36-generic/misc" directory has vmmon.ko this module.

Later, after a flurry of searches, thanks to the network. Finally in: https://communities.vmware.com/message/2461448, found the answer:

When the "Secure Boot" is enabled, unsigned kernel extensions won't allowed to be loaded. Vmmon.ko and Vmnet.ko is of course not signed with Fedora cert, so they just won ' t run.

If the secure boot option is turned on under the BIOS, the kernel extensions that are not registered are not allowed to install, which will cause Vmmon.ko and Vmnet.ko to not work.

Finally, a method for compiling a VMware module is attached:

Website: https://communities.vmware.com/message/2442783

Cd/tmp

Tar-xvf/usr/lib/vmware/modules/source/vmmon.tar

CD vmmon-only/

Make

CP Vmmon.ko/lib/modules/2.6.32-504.el6.x86_64/misc/vmmon.ko

Modprobe Vmmon

Start the VM.
