openSUSE-2022-10067 - Failed to open a session for the virtual machine

After installing openSUSE-2022-10067 Security update for virtualbox, I got the following error when trying to start a guest vitural machine: Failed to open a session for the virtual machine. Result Code NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005) Component: SessionMachine Interface: ISession{c0447716-ff5a-4795-b57a-ecd5fffa18a4}
Details: The VM Session was aborted.
I had above errors with MS Win-10 and Opensuse Leap 15.4 Guest VM's on a Open Suse Leap 15.4 VM-Host-System.
Anybody experiances the same issue?
My temporary solution was to rollback the snapshot to pre-installation of the security update for virtualbox. Then it was possible to start the VM's without any errors again.
I think I've seen a similar crash when trying to start a VM with the combination of VirtualBox 6.1.35 and 6.1.36 in combination with the VirtualBox Extension Pack (EP) 6.1.34. Did you also upgrade the EP? ;)
This solves my problem in VirtualBox 6.1.36
With 6.1.35 I could not even update the EP without running in the same error.
Hope this helps.

VMDK disk image import failure on Google Cloud Plataform

Dears,
I am trying to import a vmdk image disk to GCE without success. The original disk is bootable and running with Debian 8 OS.
The link to jessie packeges is broken.How can i solve it? Is it a bug from Google scripts?
This is the output Error:
[import-image]: 2020-07-28T20:40:40.265Z step "translate-disk" run error: step "wait-for-translator" run error: WaitForInstancesSignal FailureMatch found for "inst-translator-import-image-translate-disk-hwhqh": "TranslateFailed: error: sh: W: Failed to fetch https://packages.sury.org/php/dists/jessie/main/binary-amd64/Packages HttpError404"

This is because Debian 8 "jessie" support has reached its end-of-life.
Debian > News > Latest News > Debian 8 Long Term Support reaching end-of-life
At this time
Debian 9 “Stretch” is generally available and is supported by Debian
LTS support,
Debian 10 “Buster” is supported by Debian.

Therefore the only buster/ and stretch/ subdirectories remain available at https://packages.sury.org/php/dists/.

VMWare player does not detect GParted live CD iso file

I have a VMWare Player virtual machine where I am trying to change partitions of my Windows 7 VM hardrive using GParted. I downloaded a GParted live CD from here. I tried this with both *-i686 and *-amd64 versions.
The problem is that VMWare Player VM does not detect the bootable ISO at all. I added the ISO file like this. When I run the VM and check its setting then CD/DVD (SATA) has a checkmark next to it so I presume it is connected. But the ISO is nowhere to be found when I try to change boot order in PhoenixBIOS. So I cannot run GParted to change partitions.
I´ve already checked that both *-i686 and *-amd64 ISO files are bootable with MagicISO.
Has anyone dealt with this? I´ve tried both my Windows 7 VM and Ubuntu VM. In both I went into PhoenixBIOS and results were the same.

VirtualBox: VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_INSTALLED

I am trying to launch two VMs using docker machine:
docker-machine create --driver virtualbox myvm1
docker-machine create --driver virtualbox myvm2
I see the following error in the output:
(myvm2) Progress state: NS_ERROR_FAILURE
(myvm2) VBoxManage: error: Failed to create the host-only adapter
(myvm2) VBoxManage: error: VBoxNetAdpCtl: Error while adding new interface: failed to open /dev/vboxnetctl: No such file or directory
(myvm2) VBoxManage: error: Details: code NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005), component HostNetworkInterfaceWrap, interface IHostNetworkInterface
(myvm2) VBoxManage: error: Context: "RTEXITCODE handleCreate(HandlerArg *)" at line 94 of file VBoxManageHostonly.cpp
(myvm2)
(myvm2) This is a known VirtualBox bug. Let's try to recover anyway...
Error creating machine: Error in driver during machine creation: Error setting up host only network on machine start: The host-only adapter we just created is not visible. This is a well known VirtualBox bug. You might want to uninstall it and reinstall at least version 5.0.12 that is is supposed to fix this issue
I installed the latest version of VirtualBox (6.0.0) from there. When I open VirtualBox window and click on the VMs in the left panel I get the following error popup:
UPDATE
I tried to re-install VirtualBox 6.0.0 and in the end of the VirtualBox installation process I saw the following screen:
Maybe it is a reason of the failures described above? My mac is running on 10.14.1 macOS Mojave
How can I fix these errors?
You probably need to approve the VirtualBox kernel extension in System Preferences under Security & Privacy:
After you allow the kernel extension, the installer should be able to run successfully.
The (rc=-1908) usually happens when the secure boot is enable, try to disable and run your vm again
Secure Boot settings are available in Startup Security Utility:
Turn on your Mac, then press and hold Command (⌘)-R immediately after you see the Apple logo to start up from macOS Recovery.
When you see the macOS Utilities window, choose Utilities > Startup Security Utility from the menu bar.
When you're asked to authenticate, click Enter macOS Password, then choose an administrator account and enter its password.
Select "No security" option
I got this exact error after upgrading my Mac to Monterey. Remove Virtualbox and reinstall solves the problem.

Windows 10 IoT Raspberry - VirtualBox

I want to run the Windows 10 IoT(check here) Raspberry on VirtualBox.
I followed all steps explained here
I'm getting this error:
Failed to open a session for the virtual machine w10IoT.
Failed to open image 'G:\VM_Workstations\wIoTTest\kmdF41E.vhd' for writing due to wrong permissions (VERR_VD_IMAGE_READ_ONLY).
Failed to attach driver below us! Image is read-only. (VERR_VD_IMAGE_READ_ONLY).
AHCI: Failed to attach drive to Port0 (VERR_VD_IMAGE_READ_ONLY).
Result Code: E_FAIL (0x80004005)
Component: ConsoleWrap
Interface: IConsole {872da645-4a9b-1727-bee2-5585105b9eed}
I tried for both MinnowBoardMax and also for Raspberry.
I have no Raspberry board, so help needed to run this on VirtualBox.
