VBoxHeadless.exe Crashed

Post by ros88 »

Hello,
I write code at delphi that starts the VBOX, run some scripts inside linux , and turn the linux off. After that this procedure will repeat itself (run linux, run script , turn off VBox) for 50 times. After using some time i receive the message "VBOXHEADLESS.EXE APPLICATION ERROR" .
"The instruction at 0xebdb2884 referenced memory at 0x00000018. The memory could not read"

How to solve the problem?
Thank you

Get a youtube video of Monty Python's "Spam" song going and chant with me:

"Logs, logs, logs, logs, logs, logs, logs, logs...."

:)

Minimal information needed to be able to help

First, the version of VirtualBox, the guest additions and the extension pack should match. Second, the extension pack is not the guest additions.

Any of these logs apply to when you get the error?

As Lou said, Extension pack and Virtualbox version must match. Your logs say you have extension pack 5.0.8 installed, by the way.
Guest additions are installed, logs say they're version 4.3.22. I have read that Guest Additions can be an earlier version than Virtualbox, but I don't know about crossing major version numbers if new functionality is expected.

Take a log after the guest has the above error and post it, maybe something there will show.

Is the error above preventing your script from continuing? I see similar errors from other programs at times and I just ignore them and things continue running peacefully.
