I ran the 32 bit it that ok I don't know how to check the OS either its 32 or 64
I ran this command to check
# uname -a
Linux EduService.taibahu.edu.sa 2.6.18-194.17.1.el5xen #1 SMP Wed Sep 29 14:12:56 EDT 2010 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
so is it 32 or 64
Try to execute ldd vmware-sysinfo, probably with LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. set in advance.
Should be troubleshooted easily i.e. what's missing or what's wrong .so number.
I tar it in /tmp folder
so what path should I set for LD_LIBRARY_PATH
The current folder i.e. "."
What's ldd says?
It's 32 bit. There is 'i386' and 'i686' in the result, no 'x64'. There is also 'xen' which probably implies paravirtual kernel. Which unfortunately means it will likely not run on ESXi.
You may try to run sysinfo on the source and check the log to determine which library has crashed. Unfortunately (again) the record of similar issues is not quite optimistic (see e.g. Re: Converter fails with ./vmware-sysinfo-lin64: not found or Re: P2V with Converter 5.1 fails)
An alternative is to bypass Converter and try to convert manually. See e.g. Re: Conversion fails with the error:FAILED: An error occurred during the conversion:'root is not found'

I cant use usb anymore, and the vconverter is not able produce any meaningful error.. its really frustrating and needles to say that software even years passed is crap. Also apparently no one from VMware is able to provide any help, seems they produce broken piece of software and they don't care about it at all.
hi all,
been fighting with that issue here, without any luck cant convert to smb share
I mounted smb share as using credentials: WORKGROUP\user ; pass ... still the same error : FAILED: Insufficient permissions to access the source.
any clue? thanks
also there is apparently no way how to submit officially issue to VMware. so they provide user forum and they absolutely ignore their products are broken..wonderful approach.
still the same
[root@EduService tmp]# export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=.

Try "ldd vmware-info" and share the result.
here is the output

Seems legit. Could you execute 'LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. vmware-sysinfo'?
