只是想提一下，这个补丁在我的Ubuntu 14.04和VMWare Player 6.0.1上直接就能用。谢谢。 - user276777

1解决方案也适用于10.0.1上14.04版本的'VNetFilterHookFn'类型错误。 - RobotHumans

3只是评论一下，因为这在谷歌上是一个热门搜索结果，但已经过时了，而且最佳答案不起作用。要让Ubuntu 15.04和Workstation 11.1.0（以及可能更旧的版本）正常工作，只需按照这些说明操作：https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/VMware#3.19_kernels_and_up - Rqomey

可能是老版本，我尝试过使用Ubuntu 15.04和Workstation 10.0.2 build 1744117，但不起作用。 - Yevgeniy Afanasyev

使用这个vmnet313.patch，包括一些错别字的修正（参见@nonsleepr的回答），解决了我在Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS 64位桌面版上升级9.0.2到9.02.4时遇到的问题。

这段代码是pastebin.com/raw.php?i=p3bkbAMu的内容；但是末尾有两处修正过的错别字。

以上代码片段是“http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=p3bkbAMu”的内容，但在最后进行了两处拼写错误的更正。使用vmnet313.patch可以解决我在Ubuntu 14.04.4 LTS 64位桌面上升级到9.0.2至9.02.4升级时遇到的问题。 - user298928

这在我的ubuntu 14.04 LTS上仍然无法工作。这是我的错误：make[1]: *** [module/tmp/vmware-root/modules/vmnet-only] Error 2 make[1]: 离开目录 /usr/src/linux-headers-3.13.0-37-generic' make: *** [vmnet.ko] Error 2 make: 离开目录 /tmp/vmware-root/modules/vmnet-only' 无法安装vmnet。 - hsnm

我遇到了完全相同的问题（Linux Mint 17，内核3.17）。

找到的解决方案是：

# - as root user
$ cd /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source
$ tar -xvf vmnet.tar
# - edit the file vmnet-only/netif.c and replace the line that looks like
    dev = alloc_netdev(sizeof *netIf, deviceName, VNetNetIfSetup);
to
    dev = alloc_netdev(sizeof *netIf, deviceName, NET_NAME_UNKNOWN, VNetNetIfSetup);
$ tar -cvf vmnet.tar vmnet-only/
$ rm -rf vmnet-only/

然后再次运行vmplayer。

VMware 需要构建一些模块，因为安装程序并不总是具有适用于您的系统的正确版本。

安装 build-essential。

sudo apt-get install build-essential

这将安装编译器和其他所需的组件。重新启动并尝试再次启动vmware，这应该解决问题。

- HTDutchy

由于其他原因，我重新安装了Ubuntu和VMware Player，但现在每次运行它时，我的GNOME桌面都会崩溃。你有什么想法是为什么？我应该提供哪些日志文件？谢谢~ - harayz

如果您将12.04的硬件支持堆栈升级到14.04版本，而没有完全升级整个系统，那么vmnet模块可能无法编译适用于vmplayer 6.0.1。我的解决方案是升级到最新的6.0.3 vmplayer。之后就没有遇到任何问题了。

对我来说，这些解决方案都没有起作用。我正在使用Ubuntu 14，所以我上网搜索并找到了解决方案在这里。

命令如下：

sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-`uname -r`

在32位系统下，您可以使用以下命令安装VMware Player：

mkdir ~/VMware && cd ~/VMware 
wget -c http://goo.gl/kkfRJg -O VMware-Player-i386.bundle.tar 
tar -xvf VMware-Player-i386.bundle.tar 
chmod +x VMware-Player-6.0.1-1379776.i386.bundle  
sudo sh VMware-Player-6.0.1-1379776.i386.bundle
mkdir ~/VMware && cd ~/VMware 
wget -c http://goo.gl/Uxia2s -O VMware-Player-x86_64.bundle.tar 
tar -xvf VMware-Player-x86_64.bundle.tar 
chmod +x VMware-Player-6.0.1-1379776.x86_64.bundle 
sudo sh VMware-Player-6.0.1-1379776.x86_64.bundle

安装完成后，一切都运行良好，我能够顺利地挂载一个Windows XP虚拟机，几乎没有遇到任何问题。我只需要更新了几个驱动程序，但是也没有出现任何问题。VMWare Player 6似乎是与我的Ubuntu版本兼容性最好的选择。

我的版本的VMware没有包含filter.c文件；我发现我需要使用这里列出的补丁来修复vmnet。

另一种解决方案是用从VMware-Player-7.1.bundle中获取的有效文件替换/usr/lib/vmware/modules/source/vmnet.tar。您甚至不需要等待安装程序完成，只需将该文件复制到其他地方并中止操作。接下来运行VMware-Workstation10.bundle（以我的情况为例），替换vmnet.tar并运行您的工作站。

我将内核映像更新为“linux-image-3.13.0-43-generic”，适用于64位x86 SMP上运行的Ubuntu Precise 12.04版本，但没有升级Ubuntu！

此后，在启动VMPlayer 6.0时，VMPlayer记录的错误消息之一显示为“Failed to build vmnet.Failed to execute the build command.”，导致VMPlayer无法启动。

我已通过删除更新的内核映像来回滚。

apt-get remove 3.13.0-43-generic

还删除了更新的Linux头文件。

sudo apt-get autoremove

现在，内核映像回到了之前的版本：

cat /proc/version : Linux version 3.8.0-44-generic (buildd@tipua) (gcc version 4.6.3 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.6.3-1ubuntu5) ) #66~precise1-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jul 15 04:01:04 UTC 2014

之后，VMPlayer 6.0恢复正常，现在可以正常使用。

这对我在lubuntu 18.04 LTS上有效。我正在使用vmware-player-14.0.0-6661328.x86_64.bundle。下载并安装vmplayer后，当我启动它时，它尝试构建模块但失败了。要修复它，您必须从此分支下载补丁：https://github.com/mkubecek/vmware-host-modules/tree/player-14.1.1。不要下载master分支，因为：

分支"master"不能用于构建模块，它只包含通用文件，以便可以轻松将其中的更改合并到所有其他分支中。要获取实际的源代码，请检出一个"真正的"分支

下载后，解压缩并进入提取的目录，然后执行以下操作：

make
sudo make install

现在启动vmplayer，应该可以正常工作。

我能够使用this solution解决3.13内核的问题。

作者建议修补vmnet源代码：

在您的主目录中创建名为vmnet313.patch的文件，内容如下：

205a206
> #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < KERNEL_VERSION(3, 13, 0)
206a208,210
> #else
> VNetFilterHookFn(const struct nf_hook_ops *ops,        // IN:
> #endif
255c259,263
<    transmit = (hooknum == VMW_NF_INET_POST_ROUTING);
---
>    #if LINUX_VERSION_CODE < KERNEL_VERSION(3, 13, 0)
>       transmit = (hooknum == VMW_NF_INET_POST_ROUTING);
>    #else
>       transmit = (ops->hooknum == VMW_NF_INET_POST_ROUTING);
>    #endif

或者将this patch下载到您的主目录，并将其重命名为vmnet313.patch。例如：

wget "http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=p3bkbAMu" -O vmnet313.patch

接下来，执行以下命令：

# Change directory into the vmware module source directory
cd /usr/lib/vmware/modules/source
# untar the vmnet modules
tar -xvf vmnet.tar
# run a the patch you should have just saved earlier
patch vmnet-only/filter.c < ~/vmnet313.patch
# re-tar the modules
tar -uvf vmnet.tar vmnet-only
# delete the previous working directory
rm -r vmnet-only
# run the vmware module build program. (alternatively just run the GUI app)
/usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmware-modconfig --console --install-all

最后一个命令（或者vmplayer）现在应该能够成功运行。
