There was a complete rewrite of the OpenGL host implementation from 3.0 to 3.1. We have ported it from Carbon to Cocoa. Might be that it silently fails in the 3.0 version. I will have a look tomorrow.

Hi Christian,

VBoxManage shows it as enabled - I'll disable it tonight and see if 3.1.x works 
(not local to the machine right now).

The instance which I have running now (3.0.12) doesn't crash - was this 
implicitly ignored in 3.0.x versions?

many thanks!

Hi lev,

the backtrace shows that there the 3D acceleration is tried to be initialized, 
which badly fails. This is ofc a bug and we will have a look (there is no 
support for 3D on headless). Could you check if you enabled 3D on that 
particular VM and if so disable it.

Hello,

I decided to upgrade to the latest release (3.1.2) for OS X hosts from 3.0.10.  
I typically run VBoxHeadless from launchd as a regular user.  Subsequent to the 
upgrade, VBoxHeadless crashes with a crashlog which I'm attaching.

The VirtualBox GUI starts up just fine, and allows the instance to run with no 
errors.

Prior to VBoxHeadless actually starting up, I get a dialog prompting me (non-root user) 
to enter my password "to allow VBoxHeadless to make changes", similar to the 
following post:

http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=21757#p95202

The problem is that in my case even after providing the password, I get the 
crash.

I'm currently stuck using 3.0.12 as the newer versions do not allow me to run 
VBoxHeadless.

Any info/suggestions appreciated

Thank you,
-lev
