I am facing issue while opening vm (cloudera-quickstart-vm-5.13.0-0-vmware) using vmware workstation software (VMware-workstation-full-15.0.2).
when I am trying to play vm/power ON virtual machine, it should start booting/loading but in my case, it is just giving popup of loading and there were no changes on screen. It is not loading/booting VM.
how can i solve this issue?

My friend and I have downloaded some discountinued videogames from Old Games Download - Retrogaming and Abandonware (which I warmly recommend to any CD-ROM aficionado!). We managed to run two of them after downloading them, mounting their .ISO file and installing them on a Windows 10 machine. The process was fairly smooth.
We are struggling to run the other two. They’re only compatible with Windows XP, so we created a virtual box with XP as the OS, but still no luck. We can’t get the virtual box to connect to Wi-Fi in any way, even after following several tutorials found online. We have tried mounting the games’s ISOs in the following ways:
Using Virtual Clone Drive
Using WinCDEmu
Using Win XP Virtual CD Control Panel
And we think we have managed to actually mount the ISO and install the programme on the virtual machine, but the game won’t start anyway. When we try to run it, this window opens:
Monsters & Co CDROM initial window, with title, play button, exit button
But when we click ‘play’ nothing happens. We have checked the “Insert Guest Addition CD Image” setting that triggers Autoplay and it seems to be up and running. What can we try next?
VirtualBox access internet by connecting to your real machine (the host machine) as if it was a router of some kind. There is no need to make the virtual machine (guest machine) use your wifi adapter directly to get internet connection, just add a virtual network adapter to your guest machine and VirtualBox takes care of everything else (but make sure you have checked the appropriated options during installation process so drivers are installed in your host machine).
Now, the game not launching is hard to say, as we don't have any message or other info about what is causing the falling. Yet, this is a 3D game and VirtualBox is not good enough to hand this kind of computation.
On my computer, I created a Hyper-V VM and virtual switch from the Microsoft documentation using all the defaults a few months ago, everything was fine, I could see the real computer in the Network list and connect to the Internet. I tried adding a second VM using the same virtual switch and now the original VM won't connect. I've removed the second VM, uninstalled and reinstalled Hyper-V, deleted all the VMs and virtual switches and started again, all with no luck.
The closest I've got to it working again is ticking "Enable virtual LAN identification for management operating systems" under the virtual switch which lets the VM see the real computer in the Network list, but the real computers network connection no longer works. I untick the box and the network connection comes back and the real computer is removed from the Network list.
When I uninstalled Hyper-V and reinstalled, the VM was in the list, so I don't know if there are some settings that don't get removed on uninstall, I ran CCleaner to try clearing it all out with no change.
Any ideas how to completely uninstall Hyper-V with all it's hidden settings and details or how to fix the virtual switch issues?
USB Device Causing VM's to Freeze - Cannot Kill vmware-vmx.exe
The problem was described here - https://communities.vmware.com/thread/612551
but anyone has no answer for it.
Generally, the problem is like so:
launch vm
connect usb stick or usb phone cable
vm freezes
it is not possible to terminate vmware-vmx.exe process (even as a SYSTEM user with highest privs).
The issue occurs on vmware workstation 14 & 15 on Windows 10 Pro Build 1903
Also tried disabling windows defender (maybe some strange scan policy) but no results.
Tried also to change almost every setting in workstation but no results...
please help
I was facing exactly the same issue and I have finally found the solution.
Update to VMWare Workstation version 15.5. Update the VM Tools in the Guest operating System, and it works!! Tried with Android Devices, in USB Tethering Mode also.
I am trying to deploy a cent-os 7 VM on a vcenetr from pyvmomi python library and then before powering on the VM I am trying to setup static IP and DNS for the VM.
VM creation goes fine , but guest customization fails, givimg following error:
**Customization of the guest operating system 'rhel6_64Guest' is not sup
ported in this configuration. Microsoft Vista (TM) and Linux guests with Logical
Volume Manager are supported only for recent ESX host and VMware Tools versions
. Refer to vCenter documentation for supported configurations."
faultCause =
faultMessage = (vmodl.LocalizableMessage) []
uncustomizableGuestOS = 'rhel6_64Guest'
Now this customization problem goes away if the VM is just rebooted once. After that we can do the guest customization.
But this reboot takes around 30 seconds of time and for our case , we need to get VMs up and running faster than this time.
Any body who faces similar problem and has some context on it will be very helpful.
Also I don't understand how rebooting the VM solves this problem.
Please share your thoughts even if you don't have exact solutions .
On further Investigation I found that open-vm-tools does not work until the VM is powered on atleast once.
When Machine is powered on , the HOST system detects the open-vm-tools running on guest OS , and from there on open-vm-tools works.
So open-vm-tools can not be used for initial provisioning as it will just not work at the start up.
Cloud-init is the alternative solution which should be used for initial provisioning.
I have been trying to download the MS Edge on Win 10 virtual machine from the dev.modern.ie website and I'm getting the same message in all the browsers:
ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED
My windows firewall is deactivated and I'm not using a proxy for my LAN, I have also tried cleaning all my browsing data but still getting the same error.
I really need to test a website i'm working with in Edge, is there a mirror or another link to download the virtual machines?
I was unable to reproduce the issue you're reporting when I initiated Microsoft Edge downloads for HyperV 2012, VirtualBox, and VMWare. This may have been a temporary issue that has since been resolved — please try again and let us know if the problem persists.
You can also test EdgeHTML (the rendering engine behind Microsoft Edge) by streaming RemoteIE to your Mac, PC, or Android/iOS device. While the shell of the browser will be Internet Explorer, the actual internals will be EdgeHTML: https://remote.modern.ie.
If you encounter further issues, please do not hesitate to remote them directly to me either here on Stack Overflow, or via Twitter.
