Trying to Vagrant up using Vmware Fusion - Getting file not found error

Getting this error:

The executable '/Users/nick/vs/mmvagrant/Contents/Library/vmware-vmx' Vagrant is trying to run was not
found in the PATH variable. This is an error. Please verify
this software is installed and on the path.

(im vagrant upping in my ~/vs/mmvagrant folder)

Purchased, installed and properly licensed vmware-fusion

Selecting this in the puphpet as a Local option, and i get the above failure message. When I run with VirtualBox, its fine.

Where can I find this contents/library reference, or what can I add to my path?

(Apple OS/X)

In PuPHPet, one must choose a "provider" which exists on your system:

enter image description here

PuPHPet will create a Vagrantfile that makes certain assumptions based on your choice of provider. In your case, you have chosen VMWare Fusion, which the question assumes is installed but in fact is not. This causes this error:

The executable vmware-vmx Vagrant is trying to run was not found in the PATH variable.

Reinstall VMWare Fusion, then make sure the VMWare Fusion Plugin is installed (with the vagrant plugin list command). Finally, with all those pieces in place, try vagrant up again.
