I want to install IIS on a WIN Server 2003 Virtual Machine. I set this VM up via a VHD file and I do not have Windows CD or its ISO. How can I do it?
I realized that the CD is not needed, as the I386 folder is on hard drive under c:\Windows\I386.
You will need to point to it 3 or 4 times but it works.
You can't install IIS without the Windows Server ISO, CD, or the i386 directory on the CD/DVD. Try to see if a copy of the CD/DVD is somewhere on your network. You can point to the i386 directory and install IIS, if it's located somewhere.

i have already installed Load runner community edition on my windows host and i want to install it on Linux guest virtual machine
i red the guide bu got so lost with first 4 steps .. changing directory especially .. how and where to i have to change it ? i need alot of explain on this step
Kill any Load Runner agent process that may be running on the machine. Type:
cd /opt/HP/HP_LoadGenerator/bin;./m_daemon_setup -kill;su -;
Change to super user.
If you have an earlier version of the load generator installed on the machine, you must first
uninstall it. Type:
cd /opt/HP/HP_LoadGenerator/;cd _HP_LoadGenerator_Installation/;sh ./Change_HP_
LoadGenerator_Installation;
Change directory to //InstData/Linux/VM. The is any path that contains the Web_Installers folder, for example /tmp/Web_
Installers. Copy the installation folder to this location
I recently downloaded the debian installer iso to use with virtualbox. For security reasons, I mounted it to ensure it was legit. I noticed a file labeled setup.exe. Why would a linux installer be a windows file, and how would the computer be able to run it?
I then decided to look throught the microsoft windows installer. It too used an exe file. How could it run the exe to install windows without windows instlled?
The Debian project has an installer for Microsoft Windows that provides a UI for installing GNU/Linux beginning on a MS Windows platform.
The Windows kernel can be loaded from disk and once it is loaded, like on install, it can start running a .exe file. For similar reasons Linux is an elf format binary. This is how a "Live" disk works, it loads the kernel and then loads up the entire OS including window manager from disk.
To your first question :
I bet you are running VirtualBox on a Windows client right? So there is nothing wrong with using a windows file :)
I need to install Ubuntu 64-bit on Windows 7 64-bit using Oracle VM Virtual Box.
I downloaded Ubuntu Desktop iso file, opened the settings of VM and selected the disk image of Ubuntu.
After this the following error message appears. How to solve this issue?
UPDATE: I tried both 34-bit and 64-bit Ubunto. Both fail.
Either your ISO is broken or you selected the wrong OS when creating the virtual machine. Try to redownload the file from the Ubuntu home page and mount it again.
You can follow the steps from here. Eventhough its for Ubuntu 14.04, the steps will not change.
I am attempting to install VMware Tools on VMware Workstation 7.1.6 on my Linux Redhat host machine. I have searched for a source to download but have been unsuccessful. Can anyone provide a link to where I can download VMware Tools for Linux Redhat OS?
I am trying to install VMware Tools so I can run a repair on a Windows 7 VM that has a corrupted Windows Boot File causing an error to be displayed when I attempt to power on the machine.
I am running VMware Workstation 7.1.6 x64 and the file I am attempting to repair with built in utility command on VMware Tools is Windows 7 x64. Please let me know if anyone has experienced a similar issue and if the VMware Tools utility command works to repair/restore corrupted or missing Windows Boot files.
vmware tools came up with workstation only, you can right click on VM menu, you can install,
Generally it will not automatically install the tools, it will mount an iso like cd rom to the vm,
you need to mount it and extract the tar file, then run the vmware-tools-install.pl file
I have windows 2008 r2 with hyper v role.
I created a rhel6 virtual machine, however when I try to install Linux Integration services following Microsoft's instructions I get this error:
ls: cannot access kmod-microsoft-hyper-v-rhel6-43.1.x86_64.rpm No such file or directory
ls: cannot access microsoft-hyper-v-rhel6-43.1.x86_64.rpm No such file or directory
RPM`s are missing
I verified that both files are located in the same folder as the install.sh script.
Did you look in the install.sh script?
Maybe he is looking somewhere else than it's own directory ;).
The path for the directories may be different than in which the script looks for.
