Are this unit files from you or inherited from any distribution? Also, I cannot file the equivalent init.d files being provided by app-emulation/vmware-modules they were done by an arch user originally but I modified them for gentoo. look at /etc/init.d/vmware That does all the same things BTW I am playing with running vmware-workstation in its own scope in the machine.slice *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 411901 *** |
Created attachment 353402 [details] vmware unit files for systemd vmware-modules currently does not install systemd unit files. With the decision of the gnome herd to migrate to systemd there is no way to start the vmware service with /etc/init.d/vmware start if you are running systemd. I found vmware target and service files on arch and modified them to work which only involved changing some /usr/bin to /opt/vmware/bin. If you need to use this now: unpack to /etc/systemd/system ln -s /etc/systemd/system/vmware.target /usr/lib/systemd/system/vmware.target if you wish to start automtically: systemctl enable vmware.target to start manually systemctl start vmware.target
