| #7769 | worksforme | guest control give bogus error message over username | ||
| Description |
Host: CentOS 5.5, VB 3.2.10 Guest: Windows Server 2003 R2, SP2 Hi Guys, Would you guys please improve your guestcontrol error messages? This from a larger script to control VM before backup: su $DefaultUser -c "/usr/bin/VBoxManage --nologo guestcontrol \
execute "$VM_Name" "C:\Windows\system32\shutdown.exe" \
--arguments "/t 5 /s /d p:2:3" --username "$WinAdminUser" \
--password "$WinAdminPassword" --wait-for stdout"
echo "su $DefaultUser -c "/usr/bin/VBoxManage --nologo guestcontrol \
execute "$VM_Name" "C:\Windows\system32\shutdown.exe" \
--arguments "/t 5 /s /d p:2:3" --username "$WinAdminUser" \
--password $WinAdminPassword --wait-for stdout""
And here is the result: Oracle VM VirtualBox Command Line Management Interface Version 3.2.10
(C) 2005-2010 Oracle Corporation
All rights reserved.
Usage:
VBoxManage guestcontrol execute <vmname>|<uuid>
<path to program>
--username <name> --password <password>
[--arguments "<arguments>"]
[--environment "<NAME>=<VALUE> [<NAME>=<VALUE>]"]
[--flags <flags>] [--timeout <msec>]
[--verbose] [--wait-for exit,stdout,stderr||]
Syntax error: No user name specified!
su todd -c /usr/bin/VBoxManage --nologo guestcontrol execute VB-ABC \
C:\Windows\system32\shutdown.exe --arguments /t 5 /s /d p:2:3 \
--username admin --password nottellin --wait-for stdout
You will note that "Syntax error: No user name specified!" does not match up to "--username winadmin" If I ever figure out what is really wrong, I will report back. In the mean time, I would appreciate it if you made your error messages match up with the real error. Many thanks, -T |

| #15418 | fixed | guest addtions: Ubuntu 16.04 Server, error message about libXrandr on Guest Additions start-up -> fixed in releases higher than 5.0.20 | ||
| Description |
I get an error message "BoxClient: error while loading shared librarie" in my syslog: May 14 16:22:41 fortuna vboxadd[837]: Starting the VirtualBox Guest AdditionsInstalling the Window System drivers May 14 16:22:41 fortuna vboxadd[837]: Could not find the X.Org or XFree86 Window System, skipping. May 14 16:22:41 fortuna vboxadd[837]: /usr/bin/VBoxClient: error while loading shared libraries: libXrandr.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory May 14 16:22:41 fortuna vboxadd[837]: ...done. May 14 16:22:41 fortuna systemd[1]: Started vboxadd.service. As I took a closer look i found out that this libXrandr is usually only available in systems that have an X Server. But this is not the case in my Machine which is even detected one row above where it say's "Could not find the X.Org or XFree86 Window System, skipping." Therefore i think this is a little bit strange that on the one hand the System detects that there is no X Server and directly afterwards want to use a library that is used for X Servers. Even during the installation it seems to be properly detected that there is no X Server. I did the installation like this: sudo mount /dev/sr0 /media/cdrom/ sudo apt-get install -y dkms build-essential linux-headers-generic linux-headers-$(uname -r) sudo /media/cdrom/VBoxLinuxAdditions.run --nox11 This was the output, clearly saying that "Could not find the X.Org or XFree86 Window System, skipping." But still got the Message in the syslog Verifying archive integrity... All good. Uncompressing VirtualBox 5.0.20 Guest Additions for Linux............

| Description |
The guest additions should be able to update itself, or at least show a messagebox that tells you there is a new version avaiable. |
