Hi,
I am trying to debug a VM by using the internal debugger capabilities of VirtualBox. If I use it in GUI mode, it is not a problem. The console is shown and everything works fine. I want to debug a VM in headless mode. Since in the debugger documentation (chapter 12 - ts_debugger) is documented that the debugger is also available on port 5000, it should be possible. But the port is not opened, either in GUI mode nor in headless mode.
Has been that feature removed?
cheers,
sash

Re: VBox Internal Debugger
Not removed, but it has to be explicitly enabled. It should then be available via telnet to port 5000.
No, I don't recall the CFGM key to enable it. I think it's VBoxInternal/DBGC/Enabled (boolean, must be set to '1' or 'yes' to actually enable it). The port and address to listen on are configurable too. See DBGCTcp.cpp.

Hey,
thank you. That's the solution and it was the right key.
