Clear your cache also post a screenshot of you box config

 

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?

You need to change your vboxwebsrb location back to default not on your

Cache. That was my biggest problem it would. Not work until I put it back to default. I'm using my mobile so I can't take a screenshot but I bet you can find a screenshot if you do a search.

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

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

I don't have linux running on my vm, win7, but i did the same thing downloaded it and  (my self) have a software share and place it there. The i mounted the iso and install the addtions. My guess is you have to the same.

I have been trying to figure this out for 4 or 5 hours now. Im a slight noob with linux. I have had my unraid server running for about a year to run my plex media center.

 

Now Im wanting it to run a VM as well. I have the latest virtualbox plugin installed and the Dynamix webserver installed... but I cant figure out how to launch the virtualbox web. I see people mention the config.php file but have no idea where it is. Im running unraid 5.0.4.

 

Any help would be great. Im not one to normally ask because I like to figure things out for myself and I've Googled the hell out of this... but I'm stuck.

Where exactly are you stuck? Have you downloaded phpvirtualbox and put it in the Dynamix webserver?

Is phpvirtualbox still not part of the virtualbox package? I thought it was. I thought that was one of the items that it installed from the virtualbox gui. I see it mentioned a lot but dont see how to get it or install it.

 

EDIT: okay I got phpvirtualbox from sourceforge, and have it extracted. what do I need from here? do I dump all of it into a location, or just a select few items?

vboxwebsrv is installed, but you need something to talk to it. Download phpvirtualbox and put it in the web root you set up in Dynamix webserver.

Now thats done and I'm getting a credentials error using default vbox and pass

Username: admin Password: admin

 

AWESOME! Thank you! up and running. Time to play around and see if I cant get this server imported.

And now that you have it running you don't need this info but I just setup my VMs using VBoxManage and the command line.  So didn't need a web server or phpvirtualbox.  I do use this plugin to start and stop the VMs.

if I only had the patience for command line, i like a gui, im not sure how this will work for me once i get xen. It should be interesting.
