Windows 10 IoT Raspberry - VirtualBox - 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.

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.

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.

Do I need to install VMWare drivers to create a VMWare image using packe vmware-isor?

I am new to Packer and trying to build our environment from scratch automatically. I am getting below error when I try to create a VM using vmware-iso in Packer. So wanted to know if I need to install VMWare to run packer?
--> vmware-iso: Failed creating VMware driver: Unable to initialize any driver f
or this platform. The errors
from each driver are shown below. Please fix at least one driver

You don't have VMware installed or on the path on your host machine. You need to install VMware Workstation etc.

Virtual Box VBoxManage: error: Failed to open/create the internal network 'HostInterfaceNetworking-eth0'

I'm running virtualbox 4.1 on Debian. If I try to start a VM with a bridged NIC I get this error:
error: Failed to open/create
the internal network 'HostInterfaceNetworking-eth0' (you might need to
modprobe vboxnetflt to make it accessible) (VERR_PERMISSION_DENIED).
VBoxManage: error: Failed to attach the network LUN
(VERR_PERMISSION_DENIED) VBoxManage: error: Details: code
NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005), component Console, interface IConsole,
callee
System: Linux localhost.localdomain 3.2.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.2.54-2 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Virtual Box Version: 4.1.18_Debianr78361
The VM starts with a NAT NIC config.
The weirdest thing is if I export this VM and import it to another user, it works. The other user I tested with was the user I usually use for running auto started virtual machines. But I cant remember doing anything special setting this user up. It is only in its own group and no others. I tried to create a new user and import the VM, but I get the same error as above. I've tried purging virtual box, and completely deleting my conf but it does not work. I just cant figure out what the diff is.
Any help appreciated.
The solution for me was to install virtualbox-4.0 from linux mint. I believe that is actually a downgrade from what in debians repos. Probably packaged different too. Still don't know how the heck I was getting the error I was getting...
sudo apt-get install -f virtualbox-4.0
sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup

Can't start VM in Virtualbox after update

I just updated virtualbox to the latest 4.1.16 r78094 and realized that I can no longer start my virtual machines.
If I start a VM, the error displayed is:
Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Historical Image.
Failed to load VMMR0.r0 (VERR_NO_MEMORY).
Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)

I have 8GB RAM in my VM host which is running OSX 10.6 of which I have over 4GBs free. Does anyone know how I can get my VMs working again?
It is a well known issue and at the moment you have two options:
install new version from http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/4.1.18/VirtualBox-4.1.18-78361-OSX.dmg
downgrade your version to previous one: https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Download_Old_Builds_4_1
