Parallels Tools installation problem on Ubuntu 15.04

[DaveH2]

I had to install curl first but I still got an error on the tar with zero download information and - curl: (9) Server denied you to change to the given directory

I'm experiencing the same error above:
curl: (9) Server denied you to change to the given directory

Hi All,
Thanks for reporting. We temporarily took our post down till we correct the link.
We will post it again once it's fixed. Thanks!

 

[LendyZ]

Oh no...please...do we need to wait another month?

 

[TommasoD1]

it was just a ftp folder error, something like wrong path or wrong directory.

 

[Andrew@Parallels]

We have asked the development team to prioritize this request implementation and will post an update here once we have more news.
Thanks for reporting and stay tuned for more updates.

seems that parallels released a point update - http://kb.parallels.com/122720

looks like its fixed most if not all the issues raised here

 

[TommasoD1]

With today upgrade the problem is solved!

Thank you!

 

[Andrew@Parallels]

This issue has been addressed in the latest update.
Please update to the latest build.

I'm using 9.0.24251 Rev.1052177. I can't install parallels tools on ubuntu 15.04.
Please, check this problem.

I was running Ubuntu 14.04 with all the latest updates. Parallels prompted me to update to the latest upgrade (10.2.1) 29006. I did that. Then installed parallel tools. All was working. With the working 15.04 support, I decided to perform the ubuntu upgrade. I did that. Now I have no menu bar using all the latest tools. See attached screenshot. I've since completely shutdown and started back up the virtual machine. Re-installed the Parallel Tools as well.

Kind Regards,
Chris

Fixed!
I restarted Unity and that worked for me.
Press Ctrl-Alt-T and that will bring the terminal window up.
This will restart it:

dconf reset -f /org/compiz/
unity --reset-icons &disown

Thanks for the update @ChrisD1.
Great solution, thanks again.

Still no solution to this, right?

Just installed Ubuntu 15.04 and I'm stuck with 800x600 screen res and no way to install Parallels Tools.

Same here .. Should I have bought Parallels 10 ?

It says could not build kernel modules .. Any recommendation ? I have the latest build of Parallels ..

This issue has been addressed in the latest update.
Please update to the latest build.

Hi Andrew
Are these updates for 15.04 compatibility going to come to Parallels 9?

 

[RussellW1]

This worked for me in Debian Jessie. Worth a try for Ubuntu?

As root

$: cp -r '/<your dir to Parallels Tools>/ '/home/<username>/Downloads/'

Then, still as root,

$: cd '/home/<username>/Downloads/'

$: ./install

 

[Caesar]

No, the installer just doesn't work (both via GUI or terminal).

This issue is still unresolved when it comes to Parallels 9. Will this ever be fixed or are we forced to upgrade to v10?
