Hi

Can you explain more with logs

Hi,

Debian 10 is not compatible with Vmware Workstation Pro 15.5.1

VMware Compatibility Guide - Guest/Host Search

if you also look in the attached file, you can verify that it is not compatible:

Hi there,

yes i'd love to, but where do i find the logs for the server? syslog only reports  starting and stopping (see below) that is not helpfull at all.

The logs in /var/log/vmware do not contain any mention (grep) of "server"

Cheers Jens

syslog:
