Virtualbox and power outage

odinb · 9. Mai 2017

Hi!

After a power outage earlier today, my guest machines are all in "Aborted" status, and I cannot boot them!

Code

root@2100:/media/data/library/virtualbox# dkms status
virtualbox, 5.1.14, 4.9.0-0.bpo.2-amd64, x86_64: installed
root@2100:/media/data/library/virtualbox# uname -r
4.9.0-0.bpo.2-amd64
root@2100:/media/data/library/virtualbox# VBoxManage --version
5.1.14_Debianr112924
root@x2100:/media/data/library/virtualbox#

When I try to boot them, I get the following error:

Any ideas on how to get them back online again?

Trying to re-create a machine and pointing it back to the old vdi I backed up, I am getting "VirtualBox error: rc=0x80004005 Could not create a directory '/media/data/library/virtualbox/Debian' to save the settings file (VERR_ACCESS_DENIED) (0x80004005)"

Ok, finally fixed it!

Re-installed per this guide: Virtualbox 5.1.8 and kernel 4.9 error

After this I still had issues! Rebooted and got the error 'Error logging in to vboxwebsrv.'

Found this, and followed it to fix file-ownership:VirtualBox webservice issue

Only did the first part "chown vbox:vboxusers -R "/media/path/to/VMs" and then rebooted. it now works!
