Unable to run Autostart Service

Post by wizgod »

Greetings Programs!

I followed the instructions here to the letter and when I went to start the service I received the following error (/manual/ch09.html#autostart-windows):

The VirtualBox Autostart Service bob smith@be service failed to start due to the following error:
The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.

Event viewer gives me no other information. My config file is (the domain username is correct with the space):

default_policy = deny
BE\Bob Smith= {
allow = true
startup_delay = 10
}

I have looked at this post for insight but nothing helped (/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=102434&p=497486&hilit=autostart#p497472).

I also rebooted to see if the service would start but same error.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Wg
