I have a windows host and a linux (ubuntu) guest.
Versions:
HOST - Windows 7
GUEST - Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS
VMWARE TOOLS installed (output from vmware-toolbox-cmd -v): 9.2.0.15626 (build-799703)
Vmware Workstation: 9.0.0 build-812388
I installed vmware tools following the instructions and it seems like everything worked as I can copy paste between host and guest and drag drop files as well as other features that you can do with vmware tools. In addition when I run the command:
initctl list
I see:
vmware-tools start/running
which I guess would indicate that vmware-tools are indeed running.
However, when I try to run vmware-toolbox it tells me:
vmware-toolbox: command not found
After issuing a locate vmware-toolbox it cannot find it anywhere. I do see /usr/bin/vmware-toolbox-cmd but that command doesnt do anything.
What is going on here?
