VirtualBox 4.3 "a new task cannot be opened for a virtual computer" SOLUTION
Recently, due to the design of different networks and the need for file and database server environments, multiple machines are required for testing. The simplest way is to run multiple virtual machines. Although VMware is indeed powerful, I prefer VirtualBox, which is simple and easy to use.
Because there are many virtual machines, I usually choose fast sleep mode when I turn off the virtual machine, so that I can directly load the last usage status when I turn it on next time, which is very convenient. The VirtualBox main program was upgraded to 4.3.0 last week. An error is prompted when you open a virtual machine in the fast sleep state:
You cannot open a new task for the help house of virtual computers.
Failed to load unit 'pattern' (VERR_SSM_FIELD_NOT_CONSECUTIVE ).
Return code: E_FAIL (0x80004005)
Component: Console
Interface: IConsole {8ab7c520-2442-4b66-8d74-4ff1e195d2b6}
This is quite depressing. I used it all the time before. How can I suddenly fail? Search and find that many people have encountered this problem. Not only did many people upgrade 4.3, but many people have encountered this problem in previous versions.
Many netizens expressed their opinions and also solved the problem through the methods provided by others. For example, one answer is: adjust the number of CPUs to one in the virtual machine settings. However, the CPU of my own virtual machine is originally set as one and cannot be obtained.
The other answer is right-click the Virtual Machine with an error and select the "Clear saved status" option. This is equivalent to force power-off of the rapidly dormant Virtual Machine and re-boot it. Bkjia tried it and it was OK, but isn't it possible to sleep quickly in the future? This is not my answer.
Then I thought, after updating the VBOX, it seems that the VboxGuestAdditions enhancement component was not updated, so I also updated the component and opened the virtual machine that has not been cleared by me, dangdang!
Therefore, if you encounter problems, you must find a solution by yourself. Cloud may solve the problem, but not necessarily the method that suits you!
In addition, bkjia has seen that the Vbox has been officially upgraded to 4.3.2 and does not know whether the problem has been solved.
