[SOLVED] VirtualBox Windows machine can't start from saved state

Having an fresh new installation of Arch to my computer, I encounter the same problem I had before with my previous system.

Everytime I start a Windows 7 machine from a saved state, starts with the following error

The VM session was aborted.

Result Code: 
NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component: 
SessionMachine
Interface: 
ISession {c0447716-ff5a-4795-b57a-ecd5fffa18a4}

As I searched, the NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005) it is a general error and can't get any specific information of the problem to solve.

I have installed  from pacman the
virtualbox
virtualbox-guest-iso
virtualbox-host-modules-arch
and linux-headers

and from AUR only the virtualbox-ext-oracle in order to have USB interaction and shared folder functionality.

As I attach my latest VirtualBox log file

If i'm not mistaken, the third line shows an error that has to be with permissions?

Re: [SOLVED] VirtualBox Windows machine can't start from saved state

Was the vbox version when the state was saved the same as the one you're running now ?


Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.


(A works at time B)  && (time C > time B ) ≠  (A works at time C)

Yes, I've tried before there was any kernel and virtualbox related to kernel update, many times.

I can't start a saved state even when I saved it a minute ago. It may not have any relation with software or kernel version.

The same issue here with a Windows XP guest machine.

Could you upload your latest Virtualbox log from .config/Virtualbox? It Is named as VBoxSVC.log.(number)

Update

As I'm still messing around, in order to find solution, the problem starts when I install the guest additions software, the snapshot I have without guest additions, works fine with saved states.

I will inform for anything new.

Re: [SOLVED] VirtualBox Windows machine can't start from saved state

Interestingly enough, my xp guest had no trouble to resume from snapshots (even with guest additions), whereas my Arch guest did crash with the same code (0x80004005).

But unfortunately, my issues seem to relate to something else, therefore I cannot offer any help sad

For what it may be worth, the paravirtualisation interface (under machine settings - system - acceleration) works OK as "Legacy" for the xp guest, but had to be changed to "default" for the Arch. However, please note that my error with the Arch guest related  to the "Expression: !VMCPU_FF_IS_SET(pVCpu, VMCPU_FF_INTERRUPT_PIC)" problem and not to the "aRC=E_ACCESSDENIED" as in your case.

On the other hand, I looked at the additions in my xp guest, and they are still on the old level 5.1.24. I updated them to 6.0.4.r128413 and saved a snapshot. I can start the xp guest just fine from it.

Re: [SOLVED] VirtualBox Windows machine can't start from saved state

With today's updated new version of Linux's kernel linux 5.0.9.arch1-1  and VirtualBox's 6.0.6-2 version and it's packages, the problem is for now solved.

Re: [SOLVED] VirtualBox Windows machine can't start from saved state

FWIW: I had these problems with Windows 7 guests (i.e. not Windows 10 guests), but oddly enough a "workaround" for me was to reboot the host after saving the state. In other words: the resume worked 100% of the time if the host was "freshly" rebooted. I tried experimenting with unloading the kernel modules, etc., but only a reboot "fixed" it. Just in case this problem creeps back into a future version of Vbox.

Re: [SOLVED] VirtualBox Windows machine can't start from saved state

For 0x80004005 error:

I had the same problem.
uname -r: 5.0.10-arch1-1-ARCH.
VirtualBox version: 6.0.6-2

First I downgraded to VirtualBox but that didn't solve the problem. Then I found this solution:
"Guest machine default name too long with VirtualBox..."
https://github.com/hashicorp/vagrant/issues/9524

So I tested it! I created a new one guest OS with SHORTER name (WinXP) and the problem is gone away.

Re: [SOLVED] VirtualBox Windows machine can't start from saved state

Apparently the 0x80004005 error is very general problem and there is to have information of hosting OS, version of virtualbox and guest OS.

Error logs, with few exceptions, shows valuable information.

twelveeighty that didn't work in my case. At least you had to reboot, instead shutdown and boot again all over the guest OS like me. Good of you to share.

Nyllas_Laszio Thank you for sharing.
