#9382 obsolete Windows guest overwrites symbolic links in shared folders (not always) vordavoss
Description

Host: Ubuntu 10.10
Guest: Windows XP SP3
VirtualBox: 4.1.0 r73009
Guest Additions: 4.1.0 r73009

When i write some files into the guest machine, and the files are symbolic links in the host machine, in some cases the symbolic links are not maintained and are replaced by a copy of the original file. This not always happens, only with certain programs.

Example:

/home/user/shared : Shared folder between host and guest
/home/user/real/file1.txt : Txt file in host machine
/home/user/real/file2.xls : Excel file in host machine
/home/user/shared/file1.txt : Symbolic link to file1.txt
/home/user/shared/file2.xls : Symbolic link to file2.txt

Before:

/home/user/shared$ ls -l file*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 user user     25 2010-12-22 10:31 file1.txt -> /home/user/real/file1.txt
lrwxrwxrwx 1 user user     25 2010-12-22 10:31 file2.xls -> /home/user/real/file2.txt

Then, i open file1.txt in the windows guest machine with notepad, edit it and save before closing. And open file2.xls with Microsoft Excel, and do the same, edit, save and close.

Then, that is what i get:

/home/user/shared$ ls -l file*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 user user         25 2010-12-22 10:39 file1.txt -> /home/user/real/file1.txt
lrwxrwxrwx 1 user user     192512 2010-12-22 10:39 file2.xls

The txt file remains as a link and the real file it's correctly updated. But the excel file link its replaced by an updated copy of the file, and the original file in /home/user/real isn't updated.

This bug also occurs in previous versions of Virtualbox.

#9383 obsolete Could not load the Host USB Proxy service: VERR_NOT_FOUND -> setup issue Bryan Moffit
Description

USB not working with my Linux host using VB 4.0.12-72916.

I have the updated extensions pack installed (version matches current VB version). My user is in the vboxusers group (and has logged out and back in again).

USB was working with the same user and settings using VB 4.0.9.

Here's the error box message that appears when I click on "Settings" for the Client machine in the GUI:

Failed to access the USB subsystem.
Could not load the Host USB Proxy service: VERR_NOT_FOUND.

Result Code: 
NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x00004005)
Component: Host
Interface: IHost {35b004f4-7806-4009-bfa8-d1308adba7e5}
Callee: IMachine {662c175e-a69d-40b8-a77a-1d719d0ab062}

My host machine: 64bit SMP RHEL5.7 (kernel 2.6.18-274.el5).

I'm hopeful that this isn't a dup of another ticket... I didn't see any with the same "VERR_NOT_FOUND" and "Host USB Proxy".

#9386 obsolete Some prompts/dialogs can't be closed jmausr
Description

The "remove snapshot", "restore snapshot" and "delete VM" conformation prompts (at least) do nothing when you try to close them; you need to press "Cancel" explicitly. Other dialogs work fine.
