With hardware compatible mode for workstation11, I added vmx smc.version = "0" in .vmx.

Mavericks and Yosemite work good.

But, Snow Leopard (not Server) occurred boot time error "The guest operating system is not MAC OS X Server" and turn off.

Anyone have a good idea?

 

Workstation11, patched unlocker 2.0.2.

As per the readme file, I haven't found how to bypass the OS X Server check..

Hello,

 

I previously had VMware Workstation 10 on a Ubuntu Linux 12.04 LTS and upgraded (by uninstalling the reinstalling everything from scratch) to VMware Workstation 11 with Unlocker 2.0.2 yesterday. However, I can't properly use my OSX virtual machine from now on. Indeed, the VM crashes every 5 or 10 minutes and the following error message appears:

 
VMware Workstation unrecoverable error: (vcpu-0)
Unexpected signal: 11.
A log file is available in /home/...

Do you have any idea about this kind of bug ? I attached here the error message and some logs.

 

Kind regards,

Hello,

 

I previously had VMware Workstation 10 on a Ubuntu Linux 12.04 LTS and upgraded (by uninstalling the reinstalling everything from scratch) to VMware Workstation 11 with Unlocker 2.0.2 yesterday. However, I can't properly use my OSX virtual machine from now on. Indeed, the VM crashes every 5 or 10 minutes and the following error message appears:

 

 

Can you add smc.vrsion = "0"  to vmx file as documented in readme.txt or downgrade virtual hardware to version 10.

I've just tried this (downgrading to VM10 the virtual hardware and setting smc.version to value "0") but the same problem still occurs unfortunately... Here are some logs

 

You are running a distro from ZackehSoul. We don't support anything other than vanilla OS X as there is usually a load of kexts and other things that interfere with running OS X on VMware. Can you re-try using a clean installation of OS X  so we can rule that in or out of the problem please? .

I can confirm psaxl's crash (running on F20, x64, kernel 3.17.4-200). largely identical backtrace, trying to run any of 10.9 or 10.10

 

Can you attach a vmware.log to a post please? I should point out that the unlocker actually does very little to the core VMX executable, and there are reports of signal 11 errors for Workstation on Linux not related to unlocking VMX..

 

 

Can you both ensure you do not have 3D graphic s acceleration selected for the VM? This is a known issue for Workstation on Linux, and can cause signal 11.

I have same problem with unexpected signal:

 

 

VMware Workstation unrecoverable error: (vcpu-0)
Unexpected signal: 11.

 

Running Ubuntu 14.04 as host OS and OS X 10.9 as guest. Seems to be linux host specific problem. However I found workaround, just disable sound card in virtal machine preferences and this error will go away. Crash happens when OS X trying to make sound.

Okay, I'm very reluctant to post, because I'm sure I've messed something up or misread, but aren't there supposed to be OSX options when creating a new VM? I have none. Also, one of my VMs got switched away when I was investigating and I can't change it back. Not sure what to check next.

 

Host OS: Windows 8.1 Pro

VMware Workstation 11.0 (reinstalled clean to check)

Unlocker 2.0.2 (reapplied after clean reinstall of VMware Workstation)

 

Argh. As I feared, opened my mouth and removed all doubt.

 

Reinstalling VMW did nothing, as did repairing, but I did a full on complete remove, reboot, manual check for leftover bits, reboot, install, reboot, unlocker, reboot, launch VMW cycle, and now the OSX guest options are back. Sorry for the trouble.

Weiredly im running a distro from ZackehSoul, but putting smc.version to value "0" Worked for me, Thanks a Lot donk for your unlocker. but im wondering, Yosemite is running slower on the vm11 than vm10, did i overlook anything?

Hello

 

Firstly, thank you Donk for your amazing project! I really apreciate it!

 

 

I need help (i'm a begginer)

 

 

So, i'm trying to install Yosemite 10.10.1 (host is Win8.1 Pro VL x64 with a Haswell 4770K)

 

 

I'm using OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 (14B25) bootable USB (DMG File) [5.29 GB]

 

I installed VMware WS 11 > ran unlocker 2.0.3 > converted 'OS X Base System.dmg' to .iso using http://vu1tur.eu.org/tools/ > create a vm using default settings > smc.version = "0" added to .vmx file

 

 

When i power up, it gives this:

 

Error: http://i.imgur.com/aYREYH9.png ||| http://i.imgur.com/cyHZ0CP.png

Log: http://pastebin.com/hKvsHvBx

 

When '2015-01-06T15:41:42.632-02:00| vmx| I120: GuestRpcSendTimedOut: message to toolbox-dnd timed out.' pops in the log the error come out

 

 

 

What can it be?

 

 

 

Sorry for my bad english

 

 

Thanks :)

Thanks Donk for the software! I am new to Mac and please help, everyone..

 

After installed Unlocker203, my Yosemite VM successfully boot up in VMware Workstation 11, but the resolution is limited to 1024x768, and a reminder for VMware Tools pop up. I tried to install the VMware Tools, but got the following error message instead:

 

"Could not find component on update server. Contact VMware Support or your system administrator".

 

The host PC is a 64-bit Ubuntu 14.10 with Xeon E3-1230v3 CPU/16GB/Nvidia Video Card/BenQ 1920x1080 Monitor. My Windows 7 Professional VM works fine under Workstation 11 for full screen 1920x1080 resolution.

 

The Guest Yosemite VM was made on a new MacBook Air Laptop that just purchased 2 days ago. I installed VMware Fusion 7 and no other updates or software installations on the laptop. The VM was created using Recovery Partition as VMware documentation indicated. Works perfectly on the laptop inside the Fusion 7.

 

I copied the VM across to the host PC, applied the Unlocker203 script with no issues. The VM boot up ok, but just resolution is restricted to 1024x768, and can't install VMware Tools. I did the software update and it works fine. I tried attach the 'vmware.log' file to this post, but the forum said "You aren't permitted to upload this kind of file".

 

Thanks in advance for the help...

The Guest Yosemite VM was made on a new MacBook Air Laptop that just purchased 2 days ago. I installed VMware Fusion 7 and no other updates or software installations on the laptop. The VM was created using Recovery Partition as VMware documentation indicated. Works perfectly on the laptop inside the Fusion 7.

 

I copied the VM across to the host PC, applied the Unlocker203 script with no issues. The VM boot up ok, but just resolution is restricted to 1024x768, and can't install VMware Tools. I did the software update and it works fine. I tried attach the 'vmware.log' file to this post, but the forum said "You aren't permitted to upload this kind of file".

 

Thanks in advance for the help...

you need to manually install VMware Tools, pointing to the image VMware tools - Use iso image file - in the virtual cd device, when starting VM OS X.

Thanks Donk for the software! I am new to Mac and please help, everyone..

 

After installed Unlocker203, my Yosemite VM successfully boot up in VMware Workstation 11, but the resolution is limited to 1024x768, and a reminder for VMware Tools pop up. I tried to install the VMware Tools, but got the following error message instead:

Tony,

11Al beat me to the draw, in Workstation 11 you cannot install the VMware Tools from the menu, it needs to be done manually. The tools are installed from the darwin.iso, which needs to be mounted via the CD/DVD drive, the iso is located in the tools directory of the unlocker203 and in the VMware Workstation installation directory. Once installed you should be able to change resolution.

Hello

 

Firstly, thank you Donk for your amazing project! I really apreciate it!

I need help (i'm a begginer)

So, i'm trying to install Yosemite 10.10.1 (host is Win8.1 Pro VL x64 with a Haswell 4770K)

 

I'm using OS X Yosemite 10.10.1 (14B25) bootable USB (DMG File) [5.29 GB]

 

I installed VMware WS 11 > ran unlocker 2.0.3 > converted 'OS X Base System.dmg' to .iso using http://vu1tur.eu.org/tools/ > create a vm using default settings > smc.version = "0" added to .vmx file

 

When i power up, it gives this:

 

Error: http://i.imgur.com/aYREYH9.png ||| http://i.imgur.com/cyHZ0CP.png

Log: http://pastebin.com/hKvsHvBx

 

When '2015-01-06T15:41:42.632-02:00| vmx| I120: GuestRpcSendTimedOut: message to toolbox-dnd timed out.' pops in the log the error come out

 

What can it be?

Sorry for my bad english

 

Thanks :)

lllFATAL1TY,

 

You need to create a DMG file which includes the Base System, have a look at the following topic it has all the steps required to install Yosemite in VMware Workstation 11:

Hi 11Al and MSoK,

 

Thanks for the reply. After mapping drive to that .iso file, installation of the VMware Tools can be started but can not be finished. Please see attached the screen snapshot for detail. Just before I could click 'restart' button, the error message window pop up, and close that window will close the Workstation 11 window as well. 

 

I must missed something here..

 

 

tonyyz05,

Try turning off the sound card before starting the VM. Chaosmaster, pointed out that the error comes up everytime OS X tries to make a sound. His solution worked for me and I am now running the VM without a hitch (and without sound, also).

Still, I would like to find a fix for this bug as I would like to run GarageBand in the VM if possible.

 

Cheers.

No - use 1.3.1 for ESXi.
