Karikomi,

Can you get to phpMyAdmin and phpPgAdmin? If they work, then PHP works too, so it probably has to do with the way you create the PHP file. For instance, make sure you use "<?php ?>" instead of "<? ?>" when you write your PHP code in the file. If that doesn't work, let me know.
Thanks.

The file is compressed using the builtin WIndows ZIP utility. I just downloaded the file and it uncompresses fine.

If you want to install additional software, simply ensure that the network interface is up and run the command "pkg_add PKG_NAME" as root. The package manager will go out and fetch the software plus any other dependencies that the package has. For instance, the command "pkg_add lynx" will install the Lynx text browser and all of its dependencies.

Hi there.

I'm quite a newbie for VMWare Fusion who just starts trial on Intel MacBook Black (2GHz of Core2Duo) running with MacOSX 10.4.9.
Installing Windows 2000 has been very successful. It looks good.
But NAMP doesn't boot. I just download NAMP.zip from the link on this site, and unzipped.
Does anyone has suggestions ?

Thanks and regards.

Sure it can. Run the vmware-vdiskmanager and expand the virtual disk to a larger size. Then, inside the guest, run a partitioning utility to either create a new partition in the new available space, or extend an existing partition.

i tryed to resize the disk with the -x option and the command failed to execute, it says:

"the file specified is not a virtual disk (16)"

but if it wasn't a virtual disk how come I can boot the vmware appliance with not problems.

also if I try to execute the command with the -s (size) option it comes with this message:

"invalid capacity string"

Most likely you have either a syntax issue, or are selecting the wrong file.
What is your host OS? If Windows, you may want to use my GUI wrapper for the vmware-vdiskmanager utility. See my profile for website.
What VMware product are you running?
Are there any snapshots of the guest? You cannot perform any operations with the vdiskmanager utility with the guest powered on or suspended, or if a snapshot exists.

the host OS is: Windows Vista
vmware workstation 6.0 Beta
and there is not snapshots, I just downloaded this virtual appliance a minutes ago so I haven't done much in it as it boots to the command line and all I was trying to do was install the X window.

As the disk is full now I guess there is not much to do, even if I can get to resize the disk, when I boot the partition where netBSD is install is already full and it won't boot to the command line as before, righ now is booting but at the end is comming a looped message about 'disk being full"

I'm going to start from the beginning, I will unzip the original *.vmdk file from the namp.zip file and see if I can resize that disk. I'll keep posted.

ok, back to square root one.

I unzipped the file other-flat.vmdk and started again, but it is giving me the same message when I try to resize it:

"failed to open the disk 'other-flat.vmdk' : the file specified is NOT a virtual disk (16)"

is there a known issue about vmware-workstation 6 beta and resizing a disk?
