I have installed very basic/minimal Ubuntu 18.04 guests, and I think I have guest editions installed correctly:
Guest OS seems to run fine, but I can't seem to do anything useful with VBoxManage guestcontrol. I'm trying just to get a simple example working:# cat /proc/modules | fgrep vbox vboxguest 303104 0 - Live 0xffffffffc034d000
All I ever get is:VBoxManage guestcontrol "Ubuntu 18.04" run --username 'user' --password 'password' --exe /bin/ls
Guest is booted and running for some time ... maybe 10min or more. I can't tell if VBoxManage can't connect for some reason, or there is a problem with guest editions, etc.Creating guest session as user 'user'... Waiting for guest session to start... VBoxManage: error: The guest execution service is not ready (yet) VBoxManage: error: Details: code VBOX_E_IPRT_ERROR (0x80bb0005), component GuestSessionWrap, interface IGuestSession, callee nsISupports VBoxManage: error: Context: "WaitForArray(ComSafeArrayAsInParam(aSessionWaitFlags), 30 * 1000, &enmWaitResult)" at line 879 of file VBoxManageGuestCtrl.cpp
Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot?
Thanks
