I did a fresh installation on FreeBSD 10.4-RELEASE-p5 amd64 GENERIC.
Whenever I need to stop the VM it hangs indefinitely. The OS in VM is
also FreeBSD 10.4-p5 amd64. Virtual machine runs fine, but if is use
shutdown -r now, shutdown -p now (in VM) or use ACPI PowerOff in
phpVirtualBox or VBoxManage it always hangs after OS in VM is completely
down (buffers synced etc.)
Packages used:
virtualbox-ose-kmod-5.2.0_1
virtualbox-ose-nox11-5.2.0_1
Built with Options :
PYTHON : off
R0LOGGING : off
UDPTUNNEL : on
VDE : on
VNC : on
WEBSERVICE : on
The process is still running:
# ps auxww | grep FBSD_104_tpl
vboxusers 1268 0.0 5.3 1062960 891668 - I 11:30PM 0:32.43
/usr/local/lib/virtualbox/VBoxHeadless --comment FBSD_104_tpl --startvm
ba50a283-41fa-48ae-8ff2-87591c50bfed --vrde config
# VBoxManage list vms
"FBSD_104_tpl" {ba50a283-41fa-48ae-8ff2-87591c50bfed}
but no running VMs listed by VBoxManage
# VBoxManage list runningvms
# VBoxManage controlvm "FBSD_104_tpl" poweroff
VBoxManage: error: The virtual machine is being powered down
VBoxManage: error: Details: code VBOX_E_INVALID_VM_STATE (0x80bb0002),
component ConsoleWrap, interface IConsole, callee nsISupports
VBoxManage: error: Context: "PowerDown(progress.asOutParam())" at line
578 of file VBoxManageControlVM.cpp
The above is the second try to stop VM after few minutes of waiting on
"Stopping" in phpVirtualBox.
It must be killed by "kill PID", then I can run the VM again.
(phpVirtualBox says "Aborted")
Can anybody help me to debug and fix this issues?
I never see this problem on different machines with slightly older
version of VirtualBox. We are using the same setup for years.
