Unable to load saved VMs

[feraltroll]

I just set up Fedora 19 and everything went well until I copied my VMs over from my old disk and imported them into VirtualBox. I can discard the saved state and boot the VM but I can't restore it from sleep. When I try that VirtualBox exits with the following error:

Failed to open a session for the virtual machine MyCrappyVM.

Failed to load unit 'PATM' (VERR_SSM_FIELD_NOT_CONSECUTIVE).

Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component: Console
Interface: IConsole {8ab7c520-2442-4b66-8d74-4ff1e195d2b6}

While I don't mind so much shutting down and rebooting the VM, being unable to save the state is a massive annoyance.

P.S: I know I can also downgrade back to 4.2.18 but I'd really like to solve this problem if possible.

Software versions:

• # rpm -qa kernel
  • kernel-3.9.5-301.fc19.x86_64
    kernel-3.11.4-201.fc19.x86_64
  # uname -r
  • 3.11.4-201.fc19.x86_64
  VirtualBox version: 4.3.0 r89960 (was previously using 4.2.18)

Things I have done:

• I am using kernel-3.11
• I have done the /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup thing
• My kernel sources are: ls /usr/src/kernels/ -> 3.11.4-201.fc19.x86_64

I have to wonder if this is the same thing that's causing the issue we're having here with the 3.11 kernel and vb 4.3 - viewtopic.php?f=7&t=57451

Sounds similar but his log file does not have the same error I'm getting:

Power up failed (vrc=VERR_SSM_FIELD_NOT_CONSECUTIVE, rc=NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0X80004005))

This is a bug in Virtualbox. Please report it to the Bugtracker and include the VM log

[feraltroll]

Done that, the bug is still there in 4.3.2 but with a different error, Power up failed (vrc=VERR_SSM_LOADED_TOO_MUCH, rc=NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0X80004005))

I am running Ubuntu 12.04 server 64b with Ubuntu-Desktop installed on top.

Code: Select all

I am running VirtualBox version 4.3.2 r90405 64b My guest OS is Windows 2000 Advanced Server SP4. All was working well until I tried to install another guest Ubuntu 13.10 64b. My computer is a HP G61 laptop and it has no VT-x switch in the BIOS. An upgrade to BIOS F.23 did not give the required switch so I concluded I can not run 64b operating systems in VM. (I can run the 32b version).

However and here is my problem I cannot save and then restart my Windows 2000 OS in VM. I can start it from shut-down but not from a saved state. And It is this I must do for my system to work.

The error I get

Failed to load unit 'PATM' (VERR_SSM_LOADED_TOO_MUCH).

Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005) Component: Console Interface: IConsole {8ab7c520-2442-4b66-8d74-4ff1e195d2b6}
