I am running VirtualBox 4.3.6 using OpenIndiana as a host system. ......................................... # uname -a SunOS u20m3 5.11 oi_151a7 i86pc i386 i86pc .........................................
I have a dozen different VM's installed/configured thru the VirtualBox GUI, and they all work great. So today, I am attempting to create an OS/2 1.0 VM using instructions/samples from here: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/?p=2314#more-2314 Following the suggested instructions, once the initial VM is created, a couple of customizations are required via the shell prompt via the VBoxManage command. My first sign of trouble was when I attempted to list out my VM's. Again, I have a dozen VM's, (2) of which are currently running. ......................................... # VBoxManage list vms # VBoxManage list --long vms # ......................................... Nothing comes back. No problem, I know the name of my VM, and the specific configuration modification I need to give is the "--triplefaultreset on" command. So I run that and get this back. I try it with, and without quotes around the VM name, based on examples I see in the VirtualBox documentation PDF. ......................................... # VBoxManage modifyvm "OS2-1.0" --triplefaultreset on VBoxManage: error: Could not find a registered machine named 'OS2-1.0' VBoxManage: error: Details: code VBOX_E_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND (0x80bb0001), component VirtualBox, interface IVirtualBox, callee nsISupports VBoxManage: error: Context: "FindMachine(Bstr(a->argv[0]).raw(), machine.asOutParam())" at line 455 of file VBoxManageModifyVM.cpp # VBoxManage modifyvm OS2-1.0 --triplefaultreset on VBoxManage: error: Could not find a registered machine named 'OS2-1.0' VBoxManage: error: Details: code VBOX_E_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND (0x80bb0001), component VirtualBox, interface IVirtualBox, callee nsISupports VBoxManage: error: Context: "FindMachine(Bstr(a->argv[0]).raw(), machine.asOutParam())" at line 455 of file VBoxManageModifyVM.cpp # ......................................... I played around with a couple of additional VBoxManage sub-commands. For example, I can run "VBoxManage list ostypes", but most either return blank, or generate a similar error. any thoughts on this? I am pretty certain my VM name is correct: ......................................... # ls -1 "VirtualBox VMs" Fedora18 FreeBSD 10 FreeBSD 9.1 Mountain Lion2 - don't use me - clone me Mountain Lion3 NAS4free OS2-1.0 Solaris 11.1 - dont use me Solaris 11.1 cacti tribblix milestone 6 windows7 - dont use me windows7 - FS IP windows7 - Glow windows7-Cisco windows7-grace windows7-home # ......................................... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Start Your Social Network Today - Download eXo Platform Build your Enterprise Intranet with eXo Platform Software Java Based Open Source Intranet - Social, Extensible, Cloud Ready Get Started Now And Turn Your Intranet Into A Collaboration Platform http://p.sf.net/sfu/ExoPlatform _______________________________________________ VBox-users-community mailing list VBox-users-community@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/vbox-users-community _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe: mailto:vbox-users-community-requ...@lists.sourceforge.net?subject=unsubscribe
