Quoting emil <emil.widm...@gmail.com>:
Dear Emil,
I will check your comments this afternoon. Butr I must say that
yesterday I have follow your advise and tryed the pupy way. So I have
dowloaded the Iso and the exe file. After more than two hours, it was
too late to try to use the exe but I was able to transfert the iso on
a cd.
Early this morning, I have tryed to use the exe file but it tels me
that's not a windows file --- perhaps a loading problem. And the cd
doesn't boot
Some times all goes wrong.
I have also an other question Is there a procedure to load an iso file
directly on vmware or any other virtualiser.
Thanks
Cyrille

Hello Cyrille,
sage-vmware.vmdsk is the virtual harddisk file. I have done a
installation of the virtual machine recently but I cant recall having
that troubles.
I will check my install and look where I find this harddisk file and
be back later.
OK,
I downloaded sage-vmware to desktop and extracted it there.
The following is extracted from the README.txt with my comments:
...
Installation
============
Installing Sage should take 15 to 20 minutes, less than 2 GB of hard
drive
space, and be painless.
1. Download sage-vmware-x.y.zip
--> was sage-vmware-4.6.zip
2. Extract it anywhere you want. This will take about 15 minutes
despite
anything Windows tells you. Do *not* stop the extract halfway
through
and think Sage will still work.)
--> was faster (maybe 5 min) on my laptop
3. Make sure you have installed the free VMware program. See the
following
URL for more information: http://www.vmware.com/products/player/
-->I have VMplayer 3.1.3 installed
4. Double click on sage_vmx in the sage-vmware-x.y directory to run
Sage.
--> IMPORTANT: Filename is "sage-vmware" (sage-vmware.vmx) not
sage_vmx
-->The virtual disk file is also in the same folder, its name is sage-
vmware.vmdk.
Using Sage
==========
1. When Sage starts up, click in the window (and possibly press
Control-G on some computers), then type "notebook" at the prompt to
start the Sage notebook server.
-> This is a change with the new versions. You have 3 Icons to start
Notebook, Sage on commandline or a terminal.
-> If you start sagenotebook,in the lower right cornerof the vm a
window is shown with an IP adress. This is the IP adress to type in
the windows-browser (bookmark it?!)
2. Now you can use Sage via your web browser from Windows
(it's best to use Firefox).
--> Had no problems with seamonkey and opera
May I also point you to the sage windows installer, which is kind of a
different approach:http://boxen.math.washington.edu/home/emil/doc/html/en/
Any feedback?
kind regards
emil

Since all necessary files should be present if you downloaded the
correct zip file, I just can think of a wrong setting in the VMplayer
configuration.
On the top of the VM-window check Virtual Machine/ Virtual Machine
settings/ Options (Tab) / Working directory (on right side)
