I got past this same error (on the same versions across the board) using the /usr/bin/vmware-installer program, rather than trying to run the bundle installation directly, as I'd always done before: siggy@linux ~ sudo /usr/bin/vmware-installer -i /home/siggy/Downloads/VMware-Workstation-Full-16.2.3-19376536.x86_64.bundle Installing VMware Workstation 16.2.3 Configuring... [######################################################################] 100% Installation was successful. I was getting the same error in the terminal and /var/log/vmware-installer before doing this, and this is something I've never had to do in the past. The vmware-installer program also performed an uninstall of my 15.x Workstation version before installing my new bundle, so it may be as simple as uninstalling the older version prior. Either way, my network configs were retained and I'm happy to see the "Export to OVF..." option available on the upgraded version 16 Pro. I was missing that option on 15.x Pro for some reason. -S
