[one-users] Ownership and Permission Issues

[Tino Vazquez]

Hi there,

In order to install OpenNebula in system wide, you need to install it
as root. If OpenNebula is installed in system wide, then the VMware
addon needs to be installed in system wide, and the installer need to
be run as root as well. Please try reinstalling the addon as root.

Regards,

-Tino
