Error while catching machine poweroff event via webservice
Posted: 10. Oct 2013, 17:21
I am trying to catch the event of machine's poweroff (when I select Close -> Power Off in the menu). Instead of the actual event i get an error from the webservice: "(SOAP-ENV:Client) VirtualBox error: (0x800706BE)". The steps I take are the following:
1. Start the machine from GUI
2. Login to webservice, find this machine, lock it with 'Shared' lock type
3. Create a listener from Console's event source, listen for 'All' events, register listener
4. In a loop run getEvent
After i poweroff the machine the getEvent call returns the above error.
I don't know if it's relevant but here is the code I use (Ruby). It is based on the custom object-oriented SOAP API wrapper I wrote:
The XML I get in the response from vboxwebsrv is the following:
The thing here is that I get the error only on poweroff, the other console events like snaphots, clipboard, drag/drop are catched fine.
So where can I go from here? Maybe some debugging info I need to enable somewhere to see the root cause? I understand the info I provided might not be enough so I'll be glad to provide any additional info needed.
