NS_ERROR_FAILURE MachineWrap

Post by Fulgurance »

Hi guys, I am actually working on my Linux distribution. I finished to build VirtualBox from source. The app start fine. But when I try to run a virtual machine, I have got always the same error, it's just impossible to start any VM.

Error:

VM Name: Test

The virtual machine 'Test' has terminated unexpectedly during startup with exit code 1 (0x1).

So guys I find why it fail to start. Apparently it's when I compile with hardening support. Otherwise VirtualBox start the VM properly.

Someone know if there is something to patch or to configure when VirtualBox is build with hardening support ?

I fixed the issue ! First I had to rebuild VirtualBox and fix the hardcoded path into lib64 instead of the symlink I am using.
And I had as well to change the permissions for VirtualBoxVM: chmod 4755 /usr/lib64/virtualbox/VirtualBoxVM.

I don't want to be harsh, but the wiki is a bit poor to be honest...
