Package: virtualbox Version: 6.0.4-dfsg-5 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
I am running Debian Testing and since recently (1-3 weeks?) an update of VirtualBox (I think the version that restored the "Start/Resume" buttons that got missing some months ago), restoring saved states for Linux guests started failing with this error (the first line is in Dutch, and the translation is below the error message), for example here for a VM with the name "My VM": ==================================================================================== Het is niet gelukt een sessie te openen voor virtuele machine My VM. The VM session was aborted. Resultaatcode:NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005) Component:SessionMachine Interface:ISession {c0447716-ff5a-4795-b57a-ecd5fffa18a4} ==================================================================================== The first line says: "It was not possible to restore the virtual machine My VM". And "Resultaatcode" is simply "Result code", or something like that. It's (sadly) quite reproducible. Linux guess VMs included Linux Mint 19 and Debian 6.0.10. After that, I updated Linux Mint to 19.1, reinstalled the guess additions (I tried both the 5.x deb from Linux Mint 19.1 and the downloaded .iso), but with no change in behavior. BTW, downloading the .iso for Linux Mint 19 and 19.1 also fails at around 80% with an "Unkown error". I have run out of ideas on how to resolve the issue, and tried to rule out version conflicts. Of course, what I expect is to guest systems to just restore without this fail. *** End of the template - remove these template lines *** -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (1100, 'testing'), (4, 'unstable'), (2, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_CRAP, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=nl_NL.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=nl_NL.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages virtualbox depends on: ii adduser 3.118 ii iproute2 4.20.0-2 ii libc6 2.28-6 ii libcurl3-gnutls 7.64.0-1 ii libdevmapper1.02.1 2:1.02.155-2 ii libgcc1 1:8.2.0-20 ii libgl1 1.1.0-1 ii libgsoap-2.8.75 2.8.75-1 ii libopus0 1.3-1 ii libpng16-16 1.6.36-5 ii libpython3.7 3.7.2-2 ii libqt5core5a 5.11.3+dfsg-2 ii libqt5gui5 5.11.3+dfsg-2 ii libqt5opengl5 5.11.3+dfsg-2 ii libqt5widgets5 5.11.3+dfsg-2 ii libqt5x11extras5 5.11.3-2 ii libsdl1.2debian 1.2.15+dfsg2-4 ii libssl1.1 1.1.1a-1 ii libstdc++6 8.2.0-20 ii libvncserver1 0.9.11+dfsg-1.3 ii libvpx5 1.7.0-3 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.7-1 ii libxcursor1 1:1.1.15-2 ii libxext6 2:1.3.3-1+b2 ii libxml2 2.9.4+dfsg1-7+b3 ii libxmu6 2:1.1.2-2 ii libxt6 1:1.1.5-1 ii procps 2:3.3.15-2 ii python3 3.7.2-1 ii python3.7 3.7.2-2 ii virtualbox-dkms [virtualbox-modules] 6.0.4-dfsg-5 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.11.dfsg-1 Versions of packages virtualbox recommends: ii libxcb1 1.13.1-2 ii virtualbox-qt 6.0.4-dfsg-5 Versions of packages virtualbox suggests: pn vde2 <none> pn virtualbox-guest-additions-iso <none> -- no debconf information
