 |
|
Hi,
recently I can't start any VM anymore and can't start any new created VM:
| Code: | Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Windows 7 Pro.
The virtual machine 'Windows 7 Pro' has terminated unexpectedly during startup with exit code 1 (0x1).
Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component: MachineWrap
Interface: IMachine {85632c68-b5bb-4316-a900-5eb28d3413df} |
What is missing here?
Kernel: 5.10.76-gentoo-r1
app-emulation/virtualbox-6.1.28-r1
app-emulation/virtualbox-additions-6.1.28
app-emulation/virtualbox-extpack-oracle-6.1.28
app-emulation/virtualbox-modules-6.1.28
app-emulation/virtualbox-guest-additions is only required inside guests?

Hi
What is the output of
| Code: |
ls ~/.config/VirtualBox
|
Does it happen with all guests or only win7?

All guests, also new created VMs.

Plz try
| Code: |
mv ~/.config/VirtualBox/VirtualBox.xml ~/.config/VirtualBox/VirtualBox.xml-current
mv ~/.config/VirtualBox/VirtualBox.xml-prev ~/.config/VirtualBox/VirtualBox.xml
|
and try relaunching VM
If this doesnt help plz try reemerging VBox followed by
Or downgrade to previous version of VBox.
Are the VBox modules loading properly?

| Is there anything interesting in dmesg when this fails? What changed just before this started failing? If you unload the VirtualBox modules, does qemu/kvm work? |

When was the last time VirtualBox worked properly? I don't see any reason to suspect virtualbox-6.1.28-r1 which is the current stable version. I've been running it without issue for the last six weeks or so.

That made it work. Thank you very much.
Looking at the diff there is only one line:
| Code: | diff VirtualBox.xml VirtualBox.xml-current
11a12
> <ExtraDataItem name="GUI/GroupDefinitions/" value="m=2015c668-7d85-404c-8937-3558ce302e3e"/> |
What is the reason for this new line introduced which breaks all VMs?

Glad it worked out.

Nasty VirtualBox.
Maybe you should bring it up with them.
Maybe also file a bug report in our Gentoo bugs.

Lord have mercy. That line in my VirtualBox.xml (and not in VirtualBox.xml-prev) reads:
| Code: | | <ExtraDataItem name="GUI/GroupDefinitions/" value="n=GLOBAL,m=11990160-c988-4e7a-f893-78d93f580d37,m=19236436-deef-483b-a87e-d60dde61f45b,m=fdfbee48-81ea-43b4-9d5f-7497d9810bb4,m=bb6f3ae9-7b7e-48bd-9337-d38c2c1a8c4f,m=ca5d5a20-a8bd-4182-87fa-6079f62d6a0d,m=0f52a218-7c9b-4b42-beec-64f29a9e5b5d"/> |
Both files show the same date/time. There have been no rebuilds since Jan 5 and I use it every day. Both files are written to whenever VirtualBox application is closed. It looks like a fingerprint to me.
Are my VirtualBox files being manipulated remotely by Oracle?

Talking with the #vbox@OFTC experts, I need to correct all this. The issue is not based on that config file. Moving back my configuration, it still works. Must be something related to the kernel modules.
I currently have 3 modules loaded: vboxnetadp vboxnetflt vboxdrv
Who did load these modules? Comparing with the Wiki I don't have a /etc/modules-load.d/virtualbox.conf. But the app-emulation/virtualbox-modules provides /usr/lib/modules-load.d/virtualbox.conf. Is that generally used at boot?

Yes
It is read by /etc/init.d/modules init script.
| Code: |
find_modfiles()
{
local dirs="/usr/lib/modules-load.d /run/modules-load.d /etc/modules-load.d"
local basenames files fn x y
for x in $dirs; do
[ ! -d $x ] && continue
for y in $x/*.conf; do
[ -f $y ] && basenames="${basenames}\n${y##*/}"
done
done
basenames=$(printf "$basenames" | sort -u)
for x in $basenames; do
for y in $dirs; do
[ -r $y/$x ] &&
fn=$y/$x
done
files="$files $fn"
done
echo $files
}
