Re: "Certificate error occurred for the update server." msg when doing a VMWare Tools Download or Check for updates

Hey,

 

I just hit this error too,

 

The download options say:

 

VMware-Fusion-5.0.2-900491.dmg

Download including VMware Fusion and a 12 month complimentary subscription to McAfee VirusScan Plus Recommended)

 

VMware-Fusion-5.0.2-900491-light.dmg

Download including only VMware Fusion software

 

I don't want any McAfee subscription, this would make my env dirty with things I don't want,

In fact it's ashame that VMWare pushes more apps from other companies into their packages like 1 person company that gets some extra bucks from bundling some browser Toolbar extension into his installer.

 

So, I want to stick with the light version and I want the 'VMWare tools' installation to work,

 

And yes, I expect the updates to be working, and if there's nothing newer, I'd expect to get a nice message that gently notifies that I have the latest version instead of ugly error.

 

In fact, I super disappointed from Fusion compared to Parallels but this will go to another thread.

 

 

Thanks.
