# vmtoolsd -l --background /var/run/vmtoolsd.pid [Jun 22 18:14:42.984: ] [ warning] [vmtools] Hostinfo_Daemonize: Child could not exec /home/candrews/vmtoolsd, read 4, error 2. It appears vmtoolsd is looking for itself in the cwd, instead of where it is actually located. -- should build kernel modules with dkms https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277556 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
