Ok Downloading Xubuntu now, will check it out. Cant remember the exact issue I had with Lubuntu, will see how Xubuntu goes and if I prefer Lubunutu I will give that a shot again! I am running on a HP Micorserver N36L so I wanted a low resourse OS. Thanks for your help, appreciated.

Did try Lubuntu but I was having some sort of issue with that, will give it another shot. Is Xubuntu any good?

ahh ok, now I come to think of it I did read through some of this thread a while back, should have realised. Sorry Now to find another solution!

Hi All I currently have phpvirtualbox running with the dyanmix webserver plugin but I cannot install Linux Mint as it requires "3D acceleration enabled" to be turned on, unfortunately phpvirtualbox doesnt have this option. I was hoping someone could tell me if lunux mint 16 will run within VMware on my unraid 5.0? If so is it as simple as droping the plugin in the folder and installing it? Obviously then I would need to setup a VM for Linux Mint. Thanks all

Great thanks I will do Got one other question for you, I have downloaded guest additions through the plugin but I seem to having issues with the resolution on the Lubuntu VM I have. I am wondering if I need to install guest additions for this specific VM, are you able to tell me how to do this? Thanks Lee

Ihave played around a little more and with your help I have managed to get it sorted! Thanks ijuarez!

Ok, so now I have moved the vboxwebsrv log file to mnt/config/plugins/virtualbox and also moved the symbolic link to /mnt/cache/vbox and that folder now has files in it which it didnt before on my cache drive But I still have the screen I attached a few posts ago. Going to try a restart

So you are saying the vboxwebsrv log file needs to be on the flash drive? Doesnt that get written to all of the time?

Cleared my cache virtualbox config as below: # VirtualBox plugin configuration INSTALL_ON_BOOT="true" UPGRADE_ON_BOOT="false" UPGRADE_PLG_ON_BOOT="false" START_ON_ARRAY_MOUNT="true" START_VMS_ON_START="false" VBOX_SYMLINK_LOCATION="mnt/cache/appdata/virtualbox/vbox" VBOXWEBSRV_HOST_IP="127.0.0.1" VBOXWEBSRV_HOST_PORT="18083" VBOXWEBSRV_LOGFILE="mnt/cache/appdata/virtualbox/vboxwebsrv.log" VBOXWEBSRV_VERBOSE="true" VBOXWEBSRV_LOGROTATE="0" VBOXWEBSRV_LOGSIZE="50000" VBOXWEBSRV_LOGINTERVAL="604800" Is that what you are looking for? In the mnt/cache/appdata/virtualbox/vbox there is no files at all, is that normal?

Thanks for that, allowed SOAP.so and still the same screen as above. Restarted vbox and the webserver same issue. Driving me insane, anything else you can think of?

I have attached a screenshot of what I see when I try access

cool ok will check that out. Below is my config.php. My unraid server has the ip of 192.168.1.33.

Stupid question but what are you all using for a webserver now?

Hi All I seem to have run into a problem getting vboxwebsrv to start, when I hit the "start vboxwebsrv" button in the gui it seems to pause for a bit and then come back and the start button is still visible. I am running a cache drive so I have changed the symbolic link to /mnt/cache/VMHDD/vbox. I have also change the vboxwebsrv.log location to /mnt/cache/VMHDD/vboxwebsrv.log. I noticed there was no log fill in this location so I created one and nothing is written to it at all. I did have this plugin working a while back but removed it now I at trying to add it again. In php I get an error: Exception Object ( [message:protected] => Could not connect to host (http://192.168.1.33:18083/) [string:Exception:private] => [code:protected] => 64 [file:protected] => /mnt/cache/WebServer/lib/vboxconnector.php [line:protected] => 213 [trace:Exception:private] => Array Have you guys got any tips so I can see why vboxwebsrv is not starting? Thanks Lee

Thanks for the response theone, does that mean running virtualbox and tvheadend is not going to be possible unless I use a real old version of virtual box?

Hi All I installed the TVHeadend plugin and then noticed that in the Virtualbox plugin page that it says Package Online Version Local Version Installed Version VirtualBox No online package No local package Not Installed VirtualBox Extension v4.2.16 No local package Not Installed VirtualBox Guest Additions v4.2.16 No local package VirtualBox Plugin v0.5.2 v0.5.2 Does anyone know why my Virtualbox plugin would say there is no online package? There is also no way to start webserv on the plugin page. The Kernel version seems to have changed as well to v3.0.33 I am sure it was something like 3.9.X.X I uninstalled TVheadend same issue, uninstalled virtualbox plugin and reinstall same issue. Anyone had this problem? Any help would be appreciated. Lee

Hi Guys I really would appreciate a hand with this, not sure why the artwork will not come across but all music comes across fine and streams fine. Can anyone help me out with what I should be looking or searching for to see why the artwork wont come across please?

I remember having an issue like this myself but cannot remmeber how I resolved it. Are you able to RDP to the vm from a windows machine? Yes I can RDP for a Win7 machine. Cursor display is off by about 4 inches. I was able to complete the Zorin OS install. to be honest I may have just deleted the vm in virtualbox (not the image just the vm) and created it again. Have you tried this?

No album art still seems to be an issue, is there any specific art I should be using? This is abot the only thing holding me up the rest of unraid seems to be working pretty well! Any help would be greatly appreciated!
