Changing adapter to VirtIO - doesn't help. But now I accidently noticed, when entering to Ubuntu Network Settings there is strange Message box appearing "The system network services are not compatible with this version" ! See the attached screenshot.
My /etc/network/interfaces contains only:
Code: Select all
# interfaces(5) file used by ifup(8) and ifdown(8)
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

Yeah I just installed a new version of Ubuntu and am working on it, but if anything is not configured perfectly you will see that error.

I honestly don't know what to tell you. I have investigate this as far as I can go from afar and all indications are the guest has an network stack corruption. Let's look at a few things.
post the following: cat /var/log/syslog | grep net
Look at dmesg and see if you find any errors concerning the network or adapter.
If you have a router in your LAN try switching to bridged and see if it will pick that up
Or
You can add the following to the the end of the /etc/network/interfaces file and see if that will force it to work.
Other than that you will probably need to ask the OS forums about how to fix this.

You should be able to install a new version of Ubuntu and if all goes well I can tell you how to retrieve your data if that is what you are wanting to do.

Hi,
attached is syslog|grep net + dmesg content. Indeed, dmesg contains strange error line that is beginning of next NetworkManager errors:
Code: Select all
[ 8.658206] hid-generic 0003:80EE:0021.0001: input,hidraw0: USB HID v1.10 Mouse [VirtualBox USB Tablet] on usb-0000:00:06.0-1/input0
[b]
[ 8.669266] traps: NetworkManager[709] general protection ip:469fee sp:7ffe6ddc8ad0 error:0 in NetworkManager[400000+10d000]
[/b]
...
Why?
Concerning migrating to new clean VM - I prefer 1st to repair this VM. Because of there is a lot of work to reinstall and reconfigure my stuff.
Thanks in advance.

Looks like a bug in the OS. A search for "general protection ip:469fee in NetworkManager" brings up the following.
https://www.google.com/search?q=general ... orkManager
One suggestion ( as a work around ) was to run the following in a terminal
- sudo ifconfig eth0 up
sudo dhclient
You have come to a place where the help needs to come from the Ubuntu folks I am afraid.
