I am using Ubuntu 14.04 on VmWare-Player 10. My host system is Windows 7. It worked fine, but since I restarted my host system (I have done this often and it was working without any problems) it stucks at the ubuntu boot up:
I have restarted my host system and it locked again:
Do I have to change something in the log files or how can I fix this?
Thanks in advance,

I have Redhat 6.10 Synchronizer Server and xen client device setup. I am able to download updates via a manager software which run on xen client device.
But each time I want to download the update.tar
I restart the apache and then client xen device.
or I have to reboot the xen client device which I want to update then it downloads.
But sometimes even on xen client device reboot the update.tar wont download.
xen-client: downloading ....and it just keeps downloading without downloading it. It times out. I believe that for the update to download on the xen client device just restarting the xen client or invoking the client service should be enough. There should be no need to restart apache and then restart the xen-vm-client.
I am not able to download without restarting the httpd server. ie I have to run 'service httpd restart' and then immediately 'xen-vm-client reboot' . But without this I am not able to download the update.tar by just firing 'xen-vm-client reboot' on Xen. I have to restart httpd and then xen client device for it to download.
I had an issue with Redhat 6.10. After 'yum install httpd' and rebooting redhat it wont boot up. And then after debugging through the boot process, I figure out that httpd service running at different runlevels on boot stops redhat from booting up. So had to
chkconfig httpd off
chkconfig httpd --del
This fixed the issue of httpd at runlevels hanging the redhat bootup. But I think this could be the reason why I have to restart httpd to get the update to download. Otherwise if I reboot the xen client device it downloads without a httpd restart. So any hints/ideas are really appreciated.
Please give me some understanding about why this is happening and how this can be solved if you know.
Once again grateful for all the help.

Next what I ll try is 'chkconfig httpd on' this might again cause the redhat to hangup on booting. And thus I may have to reinstall the entire Synchronizer redhat 6.10 setup. Or still trying to investigate about the issue.
I am running FreeNAS 11.1-U5 at home. I have everything configured and have created VM's for Windows Server, Ubuntu, pfSense, FreePBX. I was able to install Windows and Ubuntu, but shortly after (a few hours after installing them), and after turning them off through the FreeNAS GUI, they have stopped turning on. FreeNAS reports at the top of the GUI that the start was successful, but the VM details still read "stopped".
I have run the VM's before and have the required settings in my CMOS configured for the Host (FreeNAS machine). Restarting the host will fix the problem for a while and it will let me work with the VM's, but I cannot keep restarting FreeNAS. Can anyone tell me why this happens and how to fix it please?
When I lock screen in Ubuntu GNOME 14.04 LTS it logs out from skype account.
I would like it not.
How can I fix this issue?
I am not used with Ubuntu but in Windows this problem can occur when the power management makes the network connection to be closed when the pc is locked. Take a look over the network configurations in order to not allow the computer to close it.
I have Windows 7. Installed VirtualBox and Ubuntu 11.04 as guest OS.
Networking is done by NAT.
Everything is fine: I have internet on Ubuntu.
I can access Windows from Ubuntu by its ip.
But i can't access Ubuntu by it's ip which is shown by ifconfig.
I run rails on Ubuntu.
How can I solve this problem: connect to Ubuntu/Rails server on ort 3000 from my Windows?
By default, VirtualBox's NAT allows the virtual machine to access the Internet ; but doesn't allow the physical machine to access the Virtual one.
The simplest solution would be to use another networking setting than NAT, for your Virtual Machine -- for instance, bridge should work fine (your VM would be visible on your network, though).
Another solution would be to use port forwarding ; about that, this article might help : Howto Access via ssh a Virtualbox Guest machine.
I used to struggle with configuring a similar setup until I found Vagrant. Vagrant makes it very simple to setup, connect to and work with a Linux virtual machine. After Vagrant is configured you can just type vagrant ssh to enter the virtual machine and your account has automatic sudo rights and everything works as expected - you don't even have to deal with logging into the vm. The initial setup for ssh does look to be a little more work under Windows though as you need to configure Putty before you can connect.
There is a simple configuration file in Vagrant that you use to specify which ports from the VM you want forwarded to your machine using a syntax like:
config.vm.forward_port("rails", 80, 3000)
config.vm.forward_port("tomcat", 8000, 8080)
and everything is taken care of. Details are here
If, for example, you are using Rails and you start vagrant with the command vagrant up in your Rails project directory than that directory is available on the VM. Since it is the same shared directory between machines, any changes you make in your Rails project directory on your machine using your regular editor is seen on the VM also. This makes testing in other environments very easy.
Instructions for setting Vagrant up with Windows are here and a RailsCast about it is here. Note that Vagrant has nothing to do directly with Rails - you can use it for setup of any virtual machine environment you need.
In short, you can't.
It is a local host not a public domain therefore not publicly accessible outside of your virtualbox environment.
Maybe someone has a clever hack for this but why would you want to do this in the first place?
Your solution is to either use firefox to browse to your localhost within your virtualbox linux session or develop on windows.
Personally I work the other way round I run Ubuntu 11.04 and I have virtualbox installations of xp, 2,000, me, vista and 7 so I can test in different environments. Inevitably I end up sharing my project folder from Ubuntu so that I can run the project in whatever OS I am testing for.
Here is the situation:
-Using VMWare Workstation, set the network adapter to bridge.
-Host os is winxp, guest os is CentOS 5
-Apache server installed in guest (centos) os
-Say my host ip:172.19.20.100, my guest ip:172.19.20.101
My host installed rails, so I just type 'rails server' in command line, it started up a server.I can access that in my guest os when I typing 172.19.20.100:3000 into the browser.
But when I started Apache server in guest, I can't access that in host when I typing 172.19.20.101 into the browser. If I type 172.19.20.101 in the guest, it does work...And ping 172.19.20.101 in the host command line also works.
So I guess something goes wrong in the apache server. But I comapred the httpd.conf with some tutorials and didn't see anything unusual.
Please give some advice.
There is a Windows Installer for rails, and xampp as apache server for windows, both as installer.
It might take a moment or two to get them installed, but it's well worth the effort, since you wouldn't have to deal with virtualization-related problems that way.
