Mac wireless keyboard causes crash while running windows server 2019

Reported by: DouglasGoodall Owned by:
Component: other Version: VirtualBox 6.0.4
Keywords: Cc:
Guest type: Windows Host type: Mac OS X

Description

Running macOS 10.14.3 Mojave on MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Early 2013) Memory 16GB 1600 MHz DDR3 Running VirtualBox 6.0 Windows Server 2019 installed from 17763.253.190108-0006.rs5_release_svc_refresh_SERVER_EVAL_x64FRE_en-us.iso

After Windows Server starts up, I inserted a control-alt-del and a dialogue box appeared asking for my password. As soon as a struck the first key on my apple wireless keyboard, the Apple macOS crashed. This is repeatable. I must have been nuts to run windows on my mac.

  1. It's usually better and faster, if issues get first addressed in the VirtualBox forums, a lot more eyes there. More than 95% of the issues are resolved in the forums, which keeps the developers focusing on the bug fixes and enhancements, and there is no need for another ticket to keep track of. For example, yours is most probably not a bug and someone from the developers has to deal with it and close it as "Invalid".

Plus a discussion and analysis on the bug tracker is going to help you, me, and potentially a future drive-by user or two. Not so in the forums, many more tend to benefit...

  1. You were supposed to follow these steps when you filed the bug, and provide a VBox.log:

    Attach a (full) log file ("Machine" menu/"Show Log" in the main VirtualBox Manager window) straight away to save time for you and for us. The log file contains a lot of useful information about both the host and the guest systems as well as information about what happened during a particular machine run. Please do not cut and paste it.

Actually, this looks like a duplicate of #18107.
