VMware server 1.0.5 upgrade to VMserver 2 beta 2
One of the problems I encountered recently was an issue of connecting to the console of the guest machine with in VMware 2 web interface. It appears that you should uninstall 1.0.5 mui BEFORE installing the new version.
If not done, when trying to connect to the console you’ll probably receive an error message stating that “Machine actively refusing connection”. As you recall, mui interface running on port 902. The upgrade is not done properly because of some reason and system states that the port is occupied. Which actually not – “netstat -ano” shows it clearly (the host is running CentOS 5.1).
More details will follow…
