Parallels Tools fails to install under version 12.2.1 for guest OS debian 9 stretch

I read somewhere on this forum that Parallels 12 supported now kernel until 4.12 for linux.
But Parallels Tools fails to install under version 12.2.1 for guest OS debian 9 stretch.
I get an error of type implicit function declaration :

If the error remains unfixed, i consider moving to VMWare solution since they seem to maintain updated equivalent to parallels tools and these are available in repositories.

Seems you're using some backported kernel package since stretch repo contains linux-4.9. I confirm the problem with 4.11 on Debian, on Ubuntu and Fedora everything is ok. This can be workarounded by manually adding symlink:
# ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-$(uname -r)-common/include/linux /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build/include/
 
Sorry, but i tried what you said, and it didn't work. I still get :
grep: /lib/modules/4.11.0-1-amd64/build/include/linux/completion.h: No such file or directory

I noticed that folder /usr/src/linux-headers-4.11.0-1-amd64-common/ doesn't exist, despite linux headers are installed on my VM
folder /usr/src/linux-headers-4.11.0-1-common/ exists, I tried to use this one but no more success...

I think i will not annoy you anymore, and try to reinstall the proper kernel 4.9, since i didn't know the image i downloaded was containing another kernel

Thank you
 
Sorry, I made a mistake in command to create a symlink. It should be:
# ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-4.11.0-1-common/include/linux /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build/include/
Did you try it? What does command
$ ls /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build/include/
return?
 
i tried this command without success...
the second command returns "no such file or directory"
But really I can reinstall the debian 9.1 package, i realized i downloaded and installed the testing.
 
any suggestions for my issue ?

I got Parallels Tools version 12.2.1.41615 installed successfully on Linux Kernel 4.13.0(Kali Linux 2017.2) using the command posted above:
# ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-4.13.0-1-common/include/linux /lib/modules/$(uname -r)/build/include/
just changed the syntax to the current kernel version that's on my Kali VM. ( i.e. from 11 to 13 in my case)

Was also receiving the same error log file as the posts above prior to running the ln command.
 
Hm. Command
# ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-4.13.0-kali1-common/include/linux /lib/modules/4.13.0-kali1-amd64/build/include/
works ok for me. And Parallels Tools 12.2.1 are installed successfully. Ensure linux-headers-4.13.0-kali1-amd64 package is installed before doing that command.
 
None of these work-arounds worked with Devuan ascii 2.0 :(
I used the link:
ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-4.9.0-6-common/include/linux /lib/modules/4.9.0-6-amd64/build/include/
to no avail.
