Unable to restore the virtual machine's saved state

Post by neubert »

Hi,

since several days I cannot restore the virtual machine's saved state anymore. I just tried it again: closing the virtual machine and saving its state seems to work. Restarting it immediately after yields the following error:

Code: Select all


Unable to restore the virtual machine's saved state from '/local/VirtualBox/Machines/vbox-w2k-devel/Snapshots/{e9b97ae7-380d-44bd-5fa7-1ef74a43e927}.sav'. It may be damaged or from an older version of VirtualBox. Please discard the saved state before starting the virtual machine.
VBox status code: -1825 (VERR_SSM_LOAD_CONFIG_MISMATCH).


Fehlercode:
0x80004005
Komponente:
Console
Interface:
IConsole {d5a1cbda-f5d7-4824-9afe-d640c94c7dcf}
After discarding the saved state, I can reopen the machine and work with it. The problem is reproducible. I already eliminated all traces of VirtualBox from my home directory (.VirtualBox) and created a completely new virtual machine keeping only the virtual hard disk (VDI). It did not help.

My setup:
  • VirtualBox 1.6.4 x86_64
    Linux sauron 2.6.25.11-0.1-default #1 SMP 2008-07-13 20:48:28 +0200 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Any suggestions?

Best regards,
Boris

Try to use "PCnet-PCI II" network adapter instead of "PCnet-FAST III" or use none.
