Can not install extensionpack on NAS4Free host

Post by gewe »

Hello,

NAS4Free since version 10.2.0.2 has VirtualBox integration. In the current build VirtualBox 4.3.36 is running, and can be administered via phpVirtualBox.
I would like to install the extension pack, but the following command fails:

Code: Select all

VBoxManage extpack install Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-4.3.36-105129.vbox-extpack
The output is:

Code: Select all

0%...
Progress state: NS_ERROR_FAILURE
VBoxManage: error: Failed to install "/mnt/zpool0/data/virtualbox/Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-4.3.36-105129.vbox-extpack"
VBoxManage: error: Failed to locate the main module ('VBoxPuelMain')
VBoxManage: error: Details: code NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005), component ExtPackManager, interface IExtPackManager
VBoxManage: error: Context: "int handleExtPack(HandlerArg *)" at line 1149 of file VBoxManageMisc.cpp
I don't know if the cause is the same as for Unable to install extension pack for 5.0.8. If it is, how can I work around it? There is no graphical desktop environment installed, so the solution posted in that thread does not work:

Code: Select all

/usr/libexec/polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1: Command not found.
How can the extension pack be installed on NAS4Free?

Regards,
George

Where do you get your VirtualBox ( main program ) install from, and what is the exact version?

VirtualBox on NAS4Free comes pre-installed. I am using NAS4Free 10.2.0.2, which is based on FreeBSD.
The installed version is reported as Virtual Box 4.3.36_OSE (105129).

They are using a build of their own ( fork ) and you would need to ask them why the "VBoxManage: error: Failed to locate the main module ('VBoxPuelMain')" is happening. We simply don't have any idea of what they change and can not speculate.

Anyway, thanks for your replies.
