VB 7.0.4 r154605 (Qt5.15.3) on Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS and XEON e5450

Post by bigral »

hello,
I've tried to run VB 7.0.4 r154605 (Qt5.15.3) on Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS and XEON e5450 on G41 chipset with built-in video. This happened because I put HDD with OS and vmware player from notebook with i5-6200u processor to this machine and obviously vmware player won't work with such an old cpu complaining about missing required instructions. VB claims to be working BUT, result was overwhelming:
-----------------------------------------
VM Name: winxp
The virtual machine 'winxp' has terminated unexpectedly during startup because of signal 6.

These are user forums. You'll get a reply if another user recognizes your symptoms and feels like helping. Your odds would be greatly improved if a log had been provided.

very good conclusion i also would like to see the logs, do you know why vbox may not generate them? is there such cases already?

btw meanwhile tested on same machine with windows 7 = works!

now upgraded to Version 7.0.6 r155176 (Qt5.15.3) -> result very same:
error:
Result Code:
NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0X80004005)
Component:
MachineWrap
Interface:
IMachine {300763af-5d6b-46e6-aa96-273eac15538a}

and no logs :(

There will have been more to that error message, including a full English sentence. Please post the whole message, we may be able to help.

Start the VM from full normal shutdown, not save-state. Run until you see the problem happen, then shut down the VM from within the VM's OS if possible. If not possible, close the Virtualbox window for the VM with the Power Off option set.

Right-click the VM in the main Virtualbox window's VM list, choose Show in Explorer/Finder/File Manager. In the "Logs" subfolder, zip the VM's "vbox.log", and post the zip file, using the forum's Upload Attachment tab. (Configure your host OS to show all extensions so you can find the "vbox.log", not "vbox.log.1", etc.)

If no logs were made or an error message appeared before the Virtualbox "splash screen" showed, please zip and post the VboxSVC.log in "$HOME/.config/VirtualBox"
