Failed to Use VMware vSphere Client 4.1 on Linux

Friday, May 20, 2011

After trying to install VMware vSphere Client 4.1 on Ubuntu 10.4, the final result is the same with I expected.

When I start to install using Wine, VMware require .Net Framework 3.5 SP1 for using. So, I continue to install .Net 3.5 through winetricks (you can reference here).

After finishing, I can see the display of vSphere Client 4.1. However, it got a serious error "Connection Failed".

The last conclution: "We can't use vSphere Client 4.1 on Linux at the moment" - so sad and disappointed :(
