| 1 | | I'm experiencing the same problem. The host is running Debian Stretch while the Guest is running Windows 8. I'm using VirtualBox version 5.2.8-121009~Debian~stretch. |
| 2 | | |
| 3 | | I'm running the command as follows: |
| 4 | | sudo -u user VBoxManage guestcontrol vmName run --username user --password testtest -- C:\folder\command.exe arg1 arg2 arg2 |
| 5 | | |
| 6 | | Normally the command produces some output, but I don't see any output. It just hangs forever. Because the command creates some files, I know that the command ran on the guest. |
| 7 | | |
| 8 | | Because of this bug the guestcontrol run-functionality in VirtualBox 5.2 is unusable, because the command never returns. On 5.1 it worked fine. |
