Jan Jurkus <ict@gcecad-service.nl> has reassigned Bugzilla Automation <bugzilla@FreeBSD.org>'s request for maintainer-feedback to vbox@FreeBSD.or= g: Bug 212074: emulators/virtualbox-ose starting virtual machines with vboxheadless returns 'already running?' https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D212074 --- Description --- When I start vboxheadless like this, it gives an error: # service vboxheadless start vmname vboxheadless already running? (pid=3D738 756 770 784 798 812 826 840 854 8= 68 882 896 910 924 938 952 966 980 994 1008 1022 1036 1050 1064 1078). The listed pids are from the VBoxHeadless instances that are already runnin= g. These were started on boot, via rc.conf In rc.conf they are listed like this: vboxheadless_machines=3D"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.
