VMWare Tools not starting in Ubuntu guest

$

I have an Ubuntu guest which I have just migrated to ESXi 5.1 from VMWare Server 2.0.  I upgraded vmware tools on the guest which appeared to run fine without any errors, however, while the vSphere Client shows VMWare Tools as running and up to date, I can't get vmware-user running after logging into the guest.  When I try to run it from the command prompt I get the error:

 

vmware-user: could not open /proc/fs/vmblock/dev

 

the /proc/fs/vmblock folder does not exist on the system.

 

Any suggestions on how to fix this would be welcome!

 

Thanks.
