Oracle VM VirtualBox Crash before displaying developer screen (Oh no! Something has gone wrong)
I installed Oracle VM VirtualBox 5.1.28 in my windows 7 Professional 64 bit and want to work with Debian 8 Linux project. The installation is successful and the Virtual Machine starts but before displaying the developer screen in my Virtual Box, I get a light grey screen with an error
Oh no! Something has gone wrong. A problem has occured and the system can't recover. Please contact a system administartor Snapshot of the error is given under https://sabercathost.com/5a6a/Error.jpg I installed the same VirtualBox with same settings for RAM in my notebook and one other system and it works all fine. Could any one please help me out with the problem. The VBox.log file is given under https://sabercathost.com/5a69/VBox.log |
That means an error has occurred with the GUI. You can get to a terminal with CTRL-ALT-F1. You can log in and run commands to fix the problem. From the command line run
Code:
$ less /var/log/Xorg.0.log Code:
$ apt-get update && apt-get upgrade Code:
$ dmesg Look at /home/user/.xsession-errors and /var/log/gdm/\:0.log using the less command. The gdm directory is protected so you might have to sudo to run the command less. Code:
$ sudo less /var/log/gdm/\:0.log |
Hello Awesome Machine
Thank you for such a detailed reply. With "$ less /var/log/Xorg.0.log" I got the following (EE) lines Code:
(EE) Failed to load Module "vboxvideo" (module does not exist, 0) With "$ apt-get update && apt-get upgrade" It runs the update and upgrade but does not resolve the problem. I get some errors at the end like Code:
Failed to fetch http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/w/wpa/wpasupplicant_2.3-1+deb8u4_amd64.deb Could not resolve 'ftp.de.debian.org With "$ dmesg" it gives me Code:
IPv6: ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): eth0: link is not ready Code:
e1000: eth0 NIC Link is up 1000Mbps Full Duplex, Flow Control: RX With "$ sudo less /var/log/gdm/\:0.log" it gives me "No such file or directory". I am still clueless where to catch the problem. |
You might find something in your home directory: a file .xsession-errors
The error screen looks a bit like it comes grom the Gnome desktop. |
I messed up. The log file should be in the /var/log/gdm3 directory.

I checked the ".xsession-errors" directory. It gives me the following lines

With "sudo less /var/log/gdm3" it says Quote:

I just checked my system and found that I have Intel Pentium G4400 CPU which has 2 cores and 2 threads with Hyperthreading not supported. Could it be a problem with cores and threading?
Or could it be a problem with Graphical compatibility as I do not have an extra Graphical Card in my system. Could installing a new Grpahical card solve the issue? |
The issue has been resolved with the help of the following link.
