Hey List,

I am trying to run an existing virtual machine in headless mode on a
server. (Guest: CentOS 5.3 x86, Host: Win2k3 Standard SP2 x64);

If I fire up the VM from the command prompt using the headless
executable the VM comes up fine (using: vboxheadless.exe -startvm
VMName).

However, I have followed the tutorial here
(http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=15449&p=64465#p64465)
to use the srvstart.exe method and I'm just not having any joy. When I
try and run my service the command prompt window pops up then
disappears and my debug log says the following
(http://pastebin.com/m2880985a) which is apparently a problem
accessing a stderr or stdout but I have followed the tutorial to the
letter which means my "Allow service to interact with the desktop"
option is enabled.

Also I have followed the tutorial here
(http://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=15164&p=63254#p63254)
to use the srvany.exe method and also I'm having no luck with this?
With this method my debug log is saying this
(http://pastebin.com/m616297cd) which is strange as obviously both
methods use the same xml config file but I'm getting a different error
with each and ultimately still neither are working?

Has anyone managed to correctly get this working and if so how did you do it?

Thanks for your time.
