VMware Tool installation on Linux: This configuration program is to be executed in a virtual machine. execution aborted

While Installing vmware tool on centos on vmware, I faced below problem:



 


So first we need to check kernel version run following command in terminal:
uname -r
It should show something like "2.6.18-274.el5"
If it is then you will not get this error.
But if you see something like:
"2.6.18-274.el5xen" then installed below packages:
 kernel-PAE-2.6.18-274.el5
kernel-PAE-devel-2.6.18-274.el5

and change default=1 to default=0 in /etc/grub.conf.

Now install tools you will not get this error.
