VMware Workstation 11 not seeming to run
So usually VMware Workstation 11 is pretty straight forward for me to get up and running on Arch installs, but apparently not so much for me now. I've followed all the directions on the wiki and used vmware-patch from the AUR, but whenever I run the vmware command, nothing happens. Even running from terminal, there's no output as to why it's not loading. Even after various reinstalls I'm not getting a running program. Has anyone had this issue? I heavily use VMware and this is messing with my groove!
In case this might help, here's the strace output when I run vmware.
Thanks!

Re: VMware Workstation 11 not seeming to run
I'm seeing this exact behavior with workstation 12 as well. Run 'vmware' from shell and it pauses then exits back to shell without any other output.
I'm also using vmware-patch from AUR. I'm on the LTS kernel. The modules build and the services are running.
Not sure what else to try.

Re: VMware Workstation 11 not seeming to run
I don't think vmware 11 works with the new C++ ABI, If a fresh install of 11 isn't working, you may need to upgrade to 12.
Is there anything helpful in the user logs? (i.e. like this)

Mobo: MSI MAG X570S TORPEDO MAX // Processor: AMD Ryzen 9 5950X @4.9GHz // GFX: AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT // RAM: 32GB (4x 8GB) Corsair DDR4 (@ 3000MHz) // Storage: 1x 3TB HDD, 6x 1TB SSD, 2x 120GB SSD, 1x 275GB M2 SSD

Re: VMware Workstation 11 not seeming to run
If I'm interpreting the strace correctly, it looks like /usr/bin/vmware - a bash script - is prompting the exit (see line, err, -5 of strace output).
But whether the Constitution really be one thing, or another, this much is certain - that it has either authorized such a government as we have had, or has been powerless to prevent it. In either case, it is unfit to exist.

Re: VMware Workstation 11 not seeming to run
Turns out that workstation 12.0 doesn't work but updating to the 12.1.0 bundle does in fact work properly. I imagine the same issue exists in Workstation 11.
Specific bundle that worked for me is VMware-Workstation-Full-12.1.0-3272444.x86_64.bundle

I was having same issue about 10 days ago - in my case I execute
export VMWARE_USE_SHIPPED_LIBS=yes
just before calling vmware
Not saying it will solve issue - but did in my case
