I am trying to run mean.js project based on vagrant , but I get the following error with the vagrant up command on ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64 bit.
There was an error while executing `VBoxManage`, a CLI used by Vagrant
for controlling VirtualBox. The command and stderr is shown below.
Command: ["startvm", "d660b7d6-06a3-49bc-8b90-cbad92632c11", "--type", "headless"]
Stderr: VBoxManage: error: The virtual machine 'pets_default_1473142645576_38190' has terminated unexpectedly during startup with exit code 1 (0x1)
VBoxManage: error: Details: code NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005), component MachineWrap, interface IMachine
I solved the using following steps:
I have completely remove older VirtualBox versions before installing VirtualBox-5.0 !
Uninstall VirtualBox
sudo apt-get purge "^virtualbox-.*"
Update the software repositories
sudo apt-get update
Clean up
sudo apt-get autoremove | sudo apt-get autoclean | sudo apt-get clean
Setup API repository (For Ubuntu 14.04 ("Trusty"))
echo "deb http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/debian trusty contrib" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/oracle-vbox.list
Setup Oracle Key
wget -q https://www.virtualbox.org/download/oracle_vbox_2016.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add -
wget -q https://www.virtualbox.org/download/oracle_vbox.asc -O- | sudo apt-key add -
6.Install Oracle Virtualbox

I have reinstalled virtual box and the issue has been solved for me.
On my mac while installing virtual box, It has not allowed me to install. So i went system preference -> security & privacy - > general - 'allow apps download from' -> click on the "allow" button.
I have successfully installed virtual box after the above changes on system preference.
Kitchen converge -> successfully done.
I was using macOS and I had this error after updating VirtualBox. I solved the error by going to:
System Preferences --> Security & Privacy and then clicked on lock to make changes. Then, I clicked on "Allow" as shown in the picture below:
After you make the changes, a restart is requested by the system, after restart the command should work just ok :)
Move to directory:
cd /sbin/
Run script:
sudo ./vboxconfig
Start VM:
VBoxManage startvm "VM name" --type headless
It works:)
Root this problem - system updating. VBox updated partially. This script fix this problem.
For some reason my virtualbox linux host was having an outdated vboxdrv kernel module.
I did the whole remove VirtualBox package, then reinstall, but this old version kernel module remained.
Manually deleted the unwanted module, then freshly reinstalled latest VirtualBox, then usual vboxconfig to rebuild the latest modules, and we're done.
/usr/bin/vboxmanage startvm Win10-Server --type headless now working as expected. :-)
I also faced the same issue, but Santosh Shinde's answer helped me to figure it out.
I, however, want to add to it:
After uninstalling every old/previous version of Virtualbox available on your PC:
sudo apt-get purge "^virtualbox-.*"
And cleaning your system:
sudo apt-get autoremove
Rather than installing Virtualbox from the Apt repository of Ubuntu, simply visit the downloads page of Virtualbox, to download the most current version of Virtualbox.
This is because the Apt repository may not have the latest version of Virtualbox.
I have the same error after install some cripto plugin to Chrome.Then see that Virtual box extension is not working under root and user. In my linux distributive /opt owner was changed to user by cripto plugin installator. Changing /optto root owner has solved the problem.
I just had this happen on a FreeBSD box where vagrant wasn't involved at all.
[root#freebsdserver ~]# vboxmanage startvm yavm
Waiting for VM "yavm" to power on...
VBoxManage: error: The virtual machine 'yavm' has terminated unexpectedly during startup because of signal 6
VBoxManage: error: Details: code NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005), component MachineWrap, interface IMachine
In this case it's because "freebsdserver" is running headless. The fix was to run:
# vboxmanage startvm yavm --type headless
Yesterday, I setup a new Ubuntu Box with Password (Classic VM) from my Azure Dashboard ( I am using classing Azure dashboard).
I am able to login using Putty (it means credentials are working).
To access this machine remotely (already setup CDN for Remote Desktop), I followed steps mentioned (https://azure.microsoft.com/en-in/documentation/articles/virtual-machines-linux-classic-remote-desktop/) to setup xRDP - please note that I am trying to access this box from Windows8.1 machine.
All seems to be successfully installed. Received errors, when tried to remote into Ubuntu VM:
Fire Run -> mstsc.exe (entered hostname/IP and credentials)
Entered credentials
Process threw few error messages
Its not working even after trying all troubleshooting steps:https://azure.microsoft.com/en-in/documentation/articles/virtual-machines-linux-troubleshoot-ssh-connection/
Installing xfce4 with
sudo apt-get install xfce4
have always worked fine for me!
I follwed this guide when I got started:

You can also check out this thread for hints:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/449785/ubuntu-14-04-xrdp-grey
I repeat these step(s) once again and its working now:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
sudo apt-get install xrdp
sudo systemctl start xrdp
sudo systemctl enable xrdp
sudo apt-get install xfce4
Now do RDP (Run mstsc.exe) - enter hostname and passowrd

As someone use to using a x64 Win8 OS I am completely lost on how I am suppose to bypass the permission denial that won't allow me to touch 10gen.repo or sudo yum install mongo-10gen mongo-10gen-server. Can someone please respond with a ELI5 format?
Related Resources:
"https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/104916/how-do-you-configure-package-management-system-yum-for-mongodb"
You need to create the repository file with sudo as well.
Try this:
$ echo "[MongoDB]
name=MongoDB Repository
baseurl=http://downloads-distro.mongodb.org/repo/redhat/os/x86_64
gpgcheck=0
enabled=1" | sudo tee -a /etc/yum.repos.d/10gen.repo
$ sudo yum update
And then:
sudo yum install mongo-10gen mongo-10gen-server
Hope it helps
How can I install a GUI for a remote server and then access it over RDP (or similar)
I've done a sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop and sudo apt-get install xrdp, but when I go to access it and login, I just get a blank screen. I presume the windowing system hasn't started?
Thanks
Did the desktop fail to start up because there is no display attached?
I think the easiest approach is to use LXDE (Lightweight X11 Desktop Environment) with xrdp.

Need GUI to run qemu on Ubuntu server: I need to run QEMU for ARM on a Ubuntu srever. THis QEmu is not supporting a text mode, so I need to install GUI software on Ubuntu server 13.04. Please suggest any that I can do a sudo apt-get install and get started quickly.
Are you connecting to the server over ssh? You could just use X forwarding to your local machine.
See the very good first answer here.
Then you can just start the software and interact with the GUI on a computer that already has the desktop environment installed.
You can do the following
sudo apt-get install ubuntu-desktop
