Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: kernel modules Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Sean (svz90) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: DnD From Host to Guest Fails Initial Comment: When trying to drag and drop a file from the Host operating system to the guest, I get the following error message: Error stating file '/proc/fs/vmblock/mountPoint/cdd623db/filename' No such file or directory where filename is the file from the host system. I am running open-vm-tools version 2011.07.19, with Arch Linux (kernel version 2.6.39), and Xfce 4.8. Using VMWare Player 3.1.4 build-385536. I checked the startup scripts, and vmblock is mounted and running. The /proc/fs/vmblock/mountpoint directory is symlinked to /tmp/VMWareDnD/cdd623db. Drag and drop from guest to host works fine. Clipboard synchronization works in both directions (though only with text - not with files). Thank you for any help in this matter.
