Hi,
Today I noticed one strange thing. I* *removed the contents of *usbSharedFolder.xml *and kept it blank. Then I again tried both ways i.e. calling attachDevice method using code as well as virsh but again it gave libvir: VirtualBox Driver error : out of memory but I was expecting some syntactical error. Is this a bug....??
Yes, it's a bug. See
http://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt.git;a=commitdiff;h=2e5d7798df56621986bddd5... for the patch that is now in libvirt git repository.
I am trying to attach a usb device to my virtualbox node using libvirt. My node is already running, I stop my node and then I am trying to add this usb device. I have a separate xml file defined for usb. It looks like this:
*<device> <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='usb'> <source> <vendor id='0x4321'/> <product id='0xfeeb'/> </source> </hostdev> </device> *
Btw, this XML is not correct. It should contain just the <hostdev> element.
