VMWare Server Installed from AUR Broken On Reboot

Hi Guys,

Wasn't sure which forum to put this in.

I installed VMWare Server 2.02 from the AUR successfully a few weeks ago and it worked without a hitch straight out of the AUR. Very surprising for VMWare

It was working perfectly, then I rebooted my Arch server and now VMWare will not start.

I have tired to reinstall from the AUR but it is still failing to start:

$ sudo /etc/rc.d/vmware start
:: Starting VMware Server          [FAIL]

Can anyone tell me how to figure out what is causing it to fail to start?

Thanks.

Hodge

Have you updated your kernel before the reboot? You might need to rebuild the services against your current running kernel.
