Vmware Workstation - Error 522

[PaulKlerkx]

Hi, first my questions - Where do I find documentation on "known Errors" and how do I resolve the 522 error?

Our daily emails have this error (shown in Screenshot "Error 522.jpg") and I'm not sure why.
Error 522, but the link indicated doesn't include any information about this error. 

The "code" below appears to be the relevant part of the patchmypc.log file, indicating to me that there is no issue with "VMware Workstation Pro 17 17.5.1 (EXE-x64) " unless it is maybe a minor version change within 17.5.1. 
I have verified that the files exist.  Shown in "VmwareWorkstation files.jpg" Screenshot.

somebody just reminded me that Broadcom have bought Vmware and pretty much demolished all things vmware in the transition, so there is likely a broken link involved there somewhere.

Hey Paul,

somebody just reminded me that Broadcom have bought Vmware and pretty much demolished all things vmware in the transition, so there is likely a broken link involved there somewhere.

This is exactly the reason why.
None of the download links work anymore.
We are monitoring the situation, and as soon as the vendor fixes them, we'll update our catalog.

We are at the vendor's mercy for now, unfortunately.

OK< thanks.

Hey Paul,

We have reinstated Vmware Workstation in our catalog with yesterday's catalog release.

However, you will have to manually download the installer and place it in the PMPC Publisher's local repository folder.
Broadcom doesn't offer a direct download link at the moment, so we can't automate the download.
