VirtualBox 4.1.0 Segmentation Fault

[bsergiu]

Hi,

I have just installed the VirtualBox 4.1.0 r73009 on a Solaris x86 host (Oracle Solaris 10 9/10 s10x_u9wos_14a X86). The installation went OK.
But ... starting the VirtualBox executable shows the UI for a second, after which the process dies with segmentation fault.

Doing a

Code: Select all

pstack core

shows the following :

I have the impression that there is an issue with the encryption library (afaik there are some additions in 4.1.0 regarding the RDP protocol encryption).
Important: On the same machine, same OS, VBox 4.0.12 works just fine.

Any ideas ?

Thank a lot,

I don't have anything useful to add, but you are not alone I have the same problem.

I'll let you know if I come up with a solution...

These kinds of problems that are reproducible should be reported to bugtracker. You will need to setup an account there as it is on a different system.
It would also help if you can post the ticket number here so other can see the progress, add information, or see the final results.

Known issue. See workaround http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/9290 until we resolve this problem.
