Hi,
I'm using libvirt to manage virtual machines created with VirtualBox-6.0,
however when I try to start, to shut down virsh vm I get the message of
object IVirtualBox is null.
However, if I leave the VirtualBox graphical interface open it works
normally. Can anyone help or is experiencing the same problem?
That means the following code in libvirt is failing
if (gVBoxAPI.UPFN.Initialize(vbox_driver) != 0)
return -1;
if (vbox_driver->vboxObj == NULL) {
virReportError(VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, "%s",
_("IVirtualBox object is null"));
return -1;
}
This says the VirtualBox SDK is failing to initialize.
I don't know enough about virtualbox to say what the likely cause would
be though.
Regards,
Daniel
