VB GUI won't start

Post by nikwax »

Solaris 11.3 host, VB 5.2.8 with 5.2.8 Extension Pack. I'm trying to run the VB GUI remotely (headless system in a lab). After a few pkg installs to pick up missing libraries, and setting ld_library_path to:

/opt/VirtualBox/amd64/legacy:/usr/X11/lib:/usr/lib/xorg/amd64


I get:

# VirtualBox
VirtualBox: supR3HardenedMainGetTrustedMain: dlopen("/opt/VirtualBox/amd64/VirtualBox.so",) failed: ld.so.1: VirtualBox: fatal: relocation error: file /usr/lib/64/libXinerama.so.1: symbol _XEatDataWords: referenced symbol not found


I poked at /usr/lib/64/libXinerama.so.1 and it appears to be version 1.1.3, which is said to have the XEatDataWords present.

I also have available and have tried in the ld_library_path:

/usr/lib/amd64/libXinerama.so.1
/usr/lib/libXinerama.so.1
/usr/X11/lib/amd64/libXinerama.so.1
/usr/X11/lib/libXinerama.so.1


Thoughts?
