Found Bug: Workstation 8.0.3 Debian Hostsystem 6.x 64bit

Failmessage:

insserv LSB headers not defined

When you install the last Workstation 8.0.3 work VMware Workstation fine. When your restart the Server or use apt for install Software you become Failmessage for installation.

After your restart the Server the VMware Workstation Server start not automatic und you can Fix this Problem temporary with /etc/init.d/vmware restart and /etc/init.d/vmware-workstation-server

When you use rcconf to activate the VMware Workstation and VMware Service going not complete. I finde the Problem is a Problem in the init.d Script from VMware

Your must be edit 3 Files.

1.

vi /etc/init.d/vmware

Add this on Head:

### BEGIN INIT INFO

# Provides:          vmware
# Required-Start:    $remote_fs $syslog
# Required-Stop:     $remote_fs $syslog
# Default-Start:     2 3 5
# Default-Stop:      0 6
# Short-Description: Start daemon when vmware starts
# Description:       Enable service provided by daemon.
### END INIT INFO

2.

vi /etc/init.d/vmware-USBArbitrator

Add this on Head:

### BEGIN INIT INFO

# Provides:          vmware-USBArbitrator

# Required-Start:    $remote_fs $syslog

# Required-Stop:     $remote_fs $syslog

# Default-Start:     2 3 5

# Default-Stop:      0 6

# Short-Description: Start daemon when vmware starts

# Description:       Enable service provided by daemon.

### END INIT INFO

3.

vi /etc/init.d/vmware-workstation-server

Add this on Head:

### BEGIN INIT INFO

# Provides:          vmware-workstation-server

# Required-Start:    $remote_fs $syslog

# Required-Stop:     $remote_fs $syslog

# Default-Start:     2 3 5

# Default-Stop:      0 6
