Hi all,
Host Ubuntu 16.04
Oracle VirtualBox
On shutdown following warning popup
Code: Select all
Virtual Box cannot connect to X server
The PC hangs. I have to turn it off manually.
In one occasion on rebooting PC, above warning also popup. It hung a while and then rebooted.
However I can start Virtualbox and VMs without problem. Please advise where shall I check and how to fix the problem.
TIA
Regards
satimis

Where is the
Minimum information needed for assistance? And a detailed description of the steps to reproduce it? For example
"On shutdown..." of the host or the guest? Come on satimis, you definitely should know by now what to do when asking for help. You're not a new user anymore...

On my posting the subject is "Problem on reboot and shutdown PC" not VMs. On the posting it was mentioned "The PC hangs. I have to turn it off manually." not VMs
VMs were not started nor running
VirtualBox
Version 5.0.26 r108824

So, wait a minute.
You're trying to shut it down and if freezes with a VirtualBox error message sometimes?
And this happens without even starting VirtualBox?
But VirtualBox works correctly?
It's only the host's shutdown/reboot process?
Is that the situation?

Yes. You're right.
I just provided additional information that VMs were NOT running. They are working without problem
Thanks
