Hi Santhosh, cool, good to know that nested 32bit VMs do work! It was quite some time ago when I tried VirtualBox inside VirtualBox...
Concerning your issue: have you tried enabling / disabling VT-X? These VBoxManage commands might be helpful: VBoxManage modifyvm <vm-name> --hwvirtex off VBoxManage modifyvm <vm-name> --vtxvpid off VBoxManage modifyvm <vm-name> --vtxux off >From within Vagrant you can do this like this (see here: https://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/virtualbox/configuration.html): config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |v| v.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--hwvirtex", "off"] end HTH, Torben On Mon, Aug 25, 2014 at 12:51 PM, Santhosh Kumar <santhosh....@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Torben, > 32 bit VM in a virtualbox inside VirtualBox is working, only 64 bit isn't > working. > Is there a specific reason for that. > > > On Monday, 25 August 2014 16:13:49 UTC+5:30, Torben Knerr wrote: >> >> Hi Santhosh, >> >> to my best knowledge it is not possible to run VirtualBox inside >> VirtualBox. >> >> You can run VirtualBox VMs inside a VMWare VM though... >> >> Cheers, >> Torben >> >> >> >> On Mon, Aug 25, 2014 at 12:14 PM, Santhosh Kumar <santho...@gmail.com> >> wrote: >> > I'm using Windows-7 host & VirtualBox 4.3.12 >> > Guest - CentOS-6.5 64bit , Im trying to run vagrant up from the guest >> > I get the following error in the log: VT-x not available >> > Box used in Vagrant file: puppetlabs/centos-6.5-64-puppet >> > Is it possible to run a 64 bit VM within a vm ? >> > >> > On Friday, 22 August 2014 12:21:14 UTC+5:30, Santhosh Kumar wrote: >> >> >> >> I'm having a centos running in virtualbox with windows host. >> >> While i run vagrant up from vm , i get the following error >> >> >> >> Downloading box from URL: >> >> https://vagrantcloud.com/puppetlabs/centos-6.5-64-puppet >> >> Extracting box...e: 0/s, Estimated time remaining: --:--:--) >> >> The box failed to unpackage properly.
