Did you finish the install by running "vmware-config.pl" ?  Its a must.  
and you must have your kernel dev packages installed to do it.
Second:  do "service vmware status" to see if the services are up ... if 
not start them.
Also try your non https port at 8222 (which is the default, you can 
change it in the config script).
