Jan Jurkus <ict@gcecad-service.nl> has reassigned Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla@FreeBSD.org>'s request for maintainer-feedback to vbox@FreeBSD.org: Bug 212074: emulators/virtualbox-ose starting virtual machines with vboxheadless returns 'already running?' https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=212074 --- Description --- When I start vboxheadless like this, it gives an error: # service vboxheadless start vmname vboxheadless already running? (pid=738 756 770 784 798 812 826 840 854 868 882 896 910 924 938 952 966 980 994 1008 1022 1036 1050 1064 1078). The listed pids are from the VBoxHeadless instances that are already running. These were started on boot, via rc.conf In rc.conf they are listed like this: vboxheadless_machines="vmname2 vmname3 vmname4 vmname-etc" If I use /usr/bin/install and /usr/sbin/daemon to create a pid and to start VBoxHeadless the vm starts up like it should. The virtual machine I am trying to start is not listed in vboxheadless_machines, and does not get started at boot. It works the same for other virtual machines that are not started on boot.
