Welcome back to my (almost) daily appointment with “What’s wrong with Fedora today?”.
At work, our servers are VMs on a VMware vSphere; we access them using SSH of course, but sometimes we need to use the remote console from the vSphere Web Client (that is a vmrc link). I upgraded my kernel (and many libraries) last week but since I don’t use vSphere that often, I didn’t noticed anything until a couple of days ago, when a RAM stick failed and our machines crashed, rebooting in emergency mode.
Usually you login, select your VM, click on Launch Remote Console and you’re done. Unfortunately I got this:
reason appLoader killed by signal 11 cmdline /usr/lib/vmware/bin/vmrc executable /usr/lib/vmware/bin/appLoader [...] os_release Fedora release 26 (Twenty Six) kernel 4.12.11-300.fc26.x86_64
