vmwared shared folder not working
The Next CEO of Stack OverflowVMWARE - I installed vmware tools but cannot find vmware-toolboxCannot see shared folder in /mnt/hgfsVmware Workstation 10 connect remote server (Debian, Guest-Windows XP) Does not allow raw disk access nor shared foldersShared folder on uBuntu VMVMware Tools for Ubuntu 16.04 LTS XenialHow to change mounted linux directory owner of a VMWare shared folder?How to share folders between host and guest in VMware?Shared folder does not appear in guest CentOS (Windows host), using VMWareVMware Workstation pro 12.5.9 Copy and paste not workingVMWare Workstation Pro 14 shared clipboard not working
I have a Ubuntu 16.04 guest operating system running on a windows 10 host, I am using VMware workstation 15 player. I have been trying to set up a shared folder but the shared folder doesn't seem to be showing up.
The Problem
My shared folder doesn't seem to be appearing under the default path /mnt/hgfs on Ubuntu. In fact /mnt/hgfs doesn't even exist only /mnt/ exist.
What have I tried
After some digging around I discovered that running sudo vmware-config-tools.pl
should fix my problem. Unfortunetly when I run sudo vmware-config-tools.pl
I get sudo: vmware-config-tools.pl: command not found
. I checked if I have open-vm-tools and open-vm-tools-desktop is installed and it is with the latest version.
The next thing I did was to check if my Ubuntu guest was able to detect that there is a shared folder on my host OS by running vmware-hgfsclient
and the name of my shared folder came up.
Here's a screenshot of my terminal after running the "what have I tried" commands
Any idea on things I can do to access my shared folder in Ubuntu (my guest OS)?
