Alex,

After upgarted to 2.5.2, I had difficulty to install VMware tools, I did
VM -> install vmware tools, following instructions, I also get an  error messge, It pops up a 'Windows Installer' window, saying 

error openning installation log file. verify the sepecific log file location exists and is writable

I can't find where is the installation log file. I check two possible location 

dir, /tmp/vmware-zhang

AND 

file /vmware/WinXp/vmware.log and this dir

Both are writable this user.

I have worked around and installed the vmware tools, but may not a good way. I copy the vmware tools files from VMware-Workstation CD to guest operation (winXp) C:/temp, modified a setting configure file, change a log file location top C:\temp\vmtemp.log

 
how to fix this.
