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)
Component: Console
Interface: IConsole {1968b7d3-e3bf-4ceb-99e0-cb7c913317bb}
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

Host: Mac OS Ventura
Guest: Oracle VirutalBox 6.1
After the recent OS upgrade to the Ventura on Mac, I am not able to start my virtual box. It used to work perfectly before the upgrade. I have tried other versions of virtual box, such as 7.0, but I am still getting the following error.
Any help would be appreciated .
Thanks.
===================
The virtual machine 'Oracle Linux 9' has terminated unexpectedly during startup with exit code 1 (0x1).
Result Code:
NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)

=======================
Mac OSX Ventura doesn't work with VirtualBox 6.X
download latest 6.X and unpack virtual box 6.X
run the uninstall virtual box tool (you need to approve in System > Privacy and Security > allow run the uninstall tool.
Now You need to download the last version VirtualBox 7.x
after download unpack it
run installer
you need to authorize Oracle kernel extensions System > Privacy and Security > allow Oracle Kernel Extension
Restart
Now Run VirtualBox from Application folder.
Probably you will need to recreate your network adapter in VirtualBox > File > Tools > Network manager
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.

I'm trying to set up a Raspbian image in VirtualBox 6.1.14 for development. I downloaded the latest .iso from the RPi website, and set up a VirtualBox machine with the OS set to Debian (32-bit). When I mount the .iso and start the machine, I'm able to get through all the installation steps until it gets to the point of configuring the package manager--at that point it freezes in both the text installer and the GUI installer.
I've tried doing this with the network adapter enabled and disabled, which made no difference. Is there a specific configuration to the VM that will get the installation to work?
I am a dum dum. I needed to up the memory on the VM. Below are the pertinent stats for it to work.
OS: Debian (32-bit)
Base Memory: 1024mb
Video Memory: 128mb
Graphics Controller: VMSVGA
Storage: 8gb
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,

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
I was given a VMWare image running Windows Server 2008 which was imported on my PC perfectly fine and works.
I really want to run it on my MacBook Pro and would have to use Oracle Virtual Box as it seems there is no VMWare Player for OSX.
According to the Internet, the strategy for opening a VMWare machine in Oracle Virtual Box is to create a new machine and attach an existing hard drive.
On the Mac I tried this and get into a situation "Windows Error Recovery" which I am unable to recover from.
On the PC I get exactly the same problems with Oracle Virtual Box with that same image as I do on the Mac.
On the PC (as stated) I can run the VM in VMWare BUT if I have already attempted to open the VM in Oracle Virtual Box, the image is corrupted and can't then be opened on the PC with VMWare.
My question is if anyone has any knowledge of what settings need to be changed in Oracle Virtual Box before opening the VM and destroying the image with it.
Many thanks
Kevin
I worked around this issue by attaching the Windows Server 2008 disk image as additional Storage to another VM that was already working (e.g. an IE8 Win7 VM downloaded from Microsoft). You can set the hard disk as master or slave, or switch when booting up the main VM.
