Run process from Windows7 host to a Ubuntu Guest

Post by Iwk0 »

Code: Select all

public void executeFileUbuntu() {
        VirtualBoxManager mgr = VirtualBoxManager.createInstance(null);
        ISnapshot s = null;
        IVirtualBox vbox = null;
        try {
            mgr.connect("", " ", " ");
            vbox = mgr.getVBox();
            ISession session = mgr.getSessionObject();


            IMachine vm = vbox.findMachine("Ubuntu32");
            if (session.getState() != SessionState.Locked) {
                vm.lockMachine(session, LockType.Shared);
            }

            IConsole console = session.getConsole();
            IGuest guest = console.getGuest();
            Long time = 50 * 1000L; // let's make it 50 seconds
            IGuestProcess gp = null;

            log.info("Logging into Guest System");

            IGuestSession gs = guest.createSession("username", "password", "", ""); // Za ubuntu
            GuestSessionWaitResult result = gs.waitForArray(Arrays.asList(GuestSessionWaitForFlag.Start), time); // let's use waitForArray to be clear

            String cmdpath = "/opt/sublime_text/sublime_tex %F";

                List<String> arguments = new ArrayList<>();
                arguments.add(cmdpath);

                gp = gs.processCreate(null, arguments, null, Arrays.asList(ProcessCreateFlag.WaitForProcessStartOnly), time);
                log.info("Created the process");

                List<IGuestProcess> gps = new ArrayList<>();
                gps = gs.getProcesses();
                for (int i = 0; i < gps.size(); i++) {
                    IGuestProcess gp_foo = gps.get(i);
                    System.out.print("Ex. Path: " + gp_foo.getExecutablePath() + " ");
                    System.out.print("PID: " + gp_foo.getPID() + " ");
                    System.out.println("Status: " + gp_foo.getStatus());
                }

                List<ProcessWaitForFlag> foo = new ArrayList<>();
                foo.add(ProcessWaitForFlag.Start);

                ProcessWaitResult waitResult = gp.waitForArray(foo, time); // again, use a valid timeout
                if (waitResult == ProcessWaitResult.Start) {
                    System.out.println("Process Load finished");
                }



        } catch (Exception e) {
        }
    }
First I start the machine and try to execute this method. When run shows status of process "Error". Same code runs fine in Win7 virtual machine, yet not on Ubuntu. I have the necessary rights, as i log as admin.

You don't tell us what is the problem with the code and you don't give any info if there was an error message.

I see the following issues with the code itself:
- you use %F in the command which most likely wonlt work (nothing to resolve it)
- you need to give the command itself and its arguments as different items in an array, else the full string will be considered as the executable path
- you silence all exception in the last catch - all errors would be hidden

Sorry, my bad. I have forgotten to print the exception.
The issue is that the command would not execute. As for the path, i am giving the command with which i start the program manually in the Ubuntu from the terminal.
This is the error:

Code: Select all

Re: Run process from Windows7 host to a Ubuntu Guest

Post by noteirak »

Seems like the guest additionw are either:
- not installed
- not started yet (Guest OS is still booting)
- just not started or failed to start.

Just before running that code, please run the following command under the same user and post the output (replace VMNAME)

Code: Select all

vboxmanage showvminfo VMNAME

I ran the command and made a screenshot, but it is too big for me to upload.
I would need to crop the picture, so could you tell me what should I include in the picture.

Can't you just copy/paste the text itself? If not, simply reduce the quality of the image and you'll be able to upload it, especially in PNG.
Right now, I'm not looking at anything specific, I would need a full overview of the VM first so I can ask you the right questions.

Re: Run process from Windows7 host to a Ubuntu Guest

Post by Iwk0 »

I think the problem might be in the guest drivers, as when i try running " rcvboxadd setup " it says that the command is not found.
I have gcc and gnu make on the OS, i also tried the steps shown in this manual https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch04.html, yet i am stuck at step one
and don't have such .iso file on the host

Re: Run process from Windows7 host to a Ubuntu Guest

Post by Iwk0 »

I think they are running now, but this method just won't work. I debugged it and it is showing that the status of the gs (IGuestSession) is Error.
I even tried making the main thread to sleep for 10 sec, but no effect.

The guest drivers are running yes, but not the system service that handles guest sessions.
It is not listed in the guest facilities and the run level is at 1 (drivers only)

Here's an example of what you should see in the last part of the output:

Have a look at this HOWTO for proper installation steps of the guest additions.
