Had a typo in the file name... I left off the 'p' in 'vbox-4.3.2-unRAID-3.9.6p.tgz'. It should be fixed now.

VirtualBox 4.3.2 now available.

Just finished compiling and uploading 4.3.2 for unRAID 5.0 i386 and 4.7.

Version 4.3 of Virtualbox is up for unRAID 5.0 i386. I am getting pulled away from the computer & have not started creating a package for unRAID 4.7. Anyone still want me to do so? I've not gotten a chance to test this version, but saw no errors / was a normal compile.

Due to Google Code's recent changes (click here for info on GoogleCode's policy change), the PHPVirtualBox project has been moved to SourceForge. PHPVirtualBox common errors & issues: http://sourceforge.net/p/phpvirtualbox/wiki/Common%20phpVirtualBox%20Errors%20and%20Issues/ PHPVirtualBox wiki page: http://sourceforge.net/p/phpvirtualbox/wiki/Home/ PHPVirtualBox forums (for issues not covered in their wiki): http://sourceforge.net/p/phpvirtualbox/discussion/

I've compiled & uploaded VirtualBox 4.2.18 for unRAID 5.0-i386 & 4.7. This will probably be the last version I do for unRAID 4.7*. *If you still use unRAID 4.7 & would like me to continue to compile & upload newer versions of VirtualBox for it, let me know. Enjoy!

Ockingshay, a search of this forum shows Re: "SimpleFeatures" - WebServer Plugin [sUPPORT] where others are using the latest Simple Features web server with the latest 5.0 of unRAID. This link shows a change you will need to make to get the plugin to work. As a side note, you do not "need" a web server to use VirtualBox, it just makes it much easier to use (graphical interface versus command line). Everything in VirtualBox can be done via the command line. http://www.linuxspy.info/tag/virtaulbox-how-to-send-poweroff-single-to-vm-tells-vm-os-to-shutdown shows a list of some of the commands you can use without a web server.

kontu, I've not tried to use pass through as my hardware does not support it. I'd probably be using ESXi if I had the option. However, in my searching just now, I came across this page on the subject relating to VirtualBox: http://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch09.html#pcipassthrough. Numbers 5 & 6 in the list mention that you Linux version must be compiled, recognize & use IOMMU support. Since I do not have hardware capable of this, you will likely need to compile your own headers & package VirtualBox to use this (passthrough) feature. I am not positive this is the issue, but perhaps the link will point you in the right direction. If you decide to try to compile VirtualBox for yourself, a wiki page, http://lime-technology.com/wiki/index.php?title=Installing_VirtualBox_in_unRAID, explains how to do so. If you solve the issue, please post to let others that might be interested in using passthrough know. Perhaps someone else here will be able to offer further assistance. Good luck!

I'm able to view the site & download files. It is possible that the host reached its bandwidth capacity; advanced statistics were not turned on (now on) so hard to tell. Let me know if the problem reoccurs & I will see if I need to add more bandwidth or change hosts. For now it is working.

Yes, the kernel did not change from rc16 to final. I updated the first post of this thread to reflect the unRAID version previously.

Upgraded from RC15 to this with no issues. Took the opportunity to move my plugins from /boot/plugins to /boot/config/plugins. Have started a parity check.

You can add something like this to your go file to start a VM (replace NAMEofVM with the name of the VM): /usr/bin/VBoxHeadless --startvm NAMEofVM &

Theone's plugin for Virtualbox is using packages that I compile for unRAID. Since you are running TVHeadend, you are using a non-standard kernel of unRAID... which means I don't have a compiled package that will work for you. This does not mean you cannot use VirtualBox & TVHeadend... it just means you will need to compile your own package. Here is the wiki page with detailed instructions on how to compile your own VirtualBox package.

Oops. Should be fixed now. Thank you for letting me know.

Sorry it took me a few days to update this time. VirtualBox for 4.2.16 is now up. Let me know if other unRAID versions are needed. Enjoy!

Very nice. Looks like you are off to a good start. Which piece will be next? If you think it is heavy now, wait until you add in the UPS.

I've not experienced the error myself, am only able to report what I find on the phpvirtualbox site. I would try creating a "New Issue" on the Issues page for phpvirtualbox.

I checked the phpvirtualbox site for the issue you are reporting "The object functionality is limited". On the web page for phpvirtualbox, click "File" on the top menu then "Preferences". Under the "General" tab, try setting the location for "Default Machine Folder" to the location where your VMs are stored. This can also be done on the command line with the command "VBoxManage setproperty machinefolder /mnt/cache/vms" (replace /mnt/cache/vms with the location of your VMs). This seems to fix the problem & lasts through a reboot (according to the phpvirtualbox issues page). If the above does not work, others have reported that stopping then restarting vboxwebsrv seems to resolve the problem (at least temporarily).

ironicbadger, which phpvirtualbox file did you download? The error "Method 'ns1:xxxxxxxxxxx' not implemented: method name or namespace not recognized" is listed under common errors as using a version of phpVirtualBox that is incompatible with your version of VirtualBox. I see you are running VirtualBox 4.2.14, which means you should have installed this VirtualBox 4.2.x Compatible --- 4.2-4 release version. I also noticed you are using "/mnt/user/cache/vbox/logs"... Did you setup a share named cache? To access my cache drive, I use "/mnt/cache/" as only my user shares are under "/mnt/user/". When you run "ps aux | grep vboxweb" you should also see a result similar to this if vboxwebserver is running: root 12345 0.0 0.1 12345 12345 ?

I have VirtualBox 4.2.14 compiled for unRAID 4.7 & 5 RC15(a). If other versions are needed, post to the VirtualBox compiled for unRAID thread to let me know which version / kernel.

I've started compiling the new version. As long as nothing bad happens, it should be up later today.

Another version of VirtualBox is out? Did not realize (4.2.12 has been most recent all the times I checked recently ... checked each time there was a new RC). The plugin is using the files I compile. I will try to get the new version up soon.

VirtualBox is also free for Windows & Linux. Think someone has been compiling packages for VirtualBox to be able to be run on unRAID... <looks down at signature> Hey, there is a link to it.

Make sure when you put it to sleep you wait a couple of minutes for it to fully sleep. Also when you bring it up, be sure to not try to access webgui for a few minutes and see if this helps. Can you retest and let us know having done this? I had a similar problem with RC14 or RC15 the other day where I had to wait a while for webgui to respond, although it may have been a fluke. Since dstroot stated he did not have time to troubleshoot, I am not sure he will be willing or able to try this. However, as RC15a is close to becoming final... it might be worth it to try to troubleshoot. Otherwise the final version will be lacking a feature that you 2 seem to want to use. My unRAID server is hooked into my VGA port on my TV (& I rarely ever switch to that input to view the screen). Typically I just connect via web, telnet or ssh (treat it as running headless) & I do not put mine to sleep. Everything I use is running smoothly.

Installing a package, like prostuff1 recommends, is the easiest method. You can, however, install other programs by going through the ".configure, make, make install" process, but you have to install a few dependencies first. I am not sure of all that is needed, believe you would need gcc, glibc, cxxlibs, make. Those dependencies can be installed from packages... so just finding a package of the program you want is often much easier. Under certain circumstances a program needs to be compiled with a certain configuration or modules, then you would need to compile your own.
