Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /usr/local/pkg/open-vm-tools
-
When installing the open-VM-tools on an pfSense installed on VMware ESX 4.1 the installer process ends with the following error;
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /usr/local/pkg/open-vm-tools.inc on line 23After rebooting the pfSense the system becomes unusable.
Anyone with the same issue?
Regards.

Fixed it by installing vmware-tools manualy.
Use the vmware-tools from VMware server.
-
there are some topics about open-vm-tools not working currently ….
could you give more detail about getting the proprietary version working ?

Reinstall the package in about 5 minutes, the syntax error should be fixed.
