#6 1.8 Connection problem

[Anonymous]

Hi All,

I get following error if I try connect to my Virtualbox via 1.8.

[e-diablo@homless RemoteBox-1.8]$ ./remotebox

anyone have any idea ?

[Ian Chapman]

Could you try replacing the vboxService.pm file in your RemoteBox installation with the one that is attached and let me know if it works? You may want to backup the original vboxService.pm file first.

[Ian Chapman]

Only if the previously attached vboxService.pm does not work for you, please try this one and let me know if it works instead.

[Ian Chapman]

Lastly, for reference could you please tell me:

1. The operating system or distro you're running RemoteBox on
2. The version of perl install (eg perl -v)
3. The version of perl-SOAP-Lite

Thanks

Please look atached picture file, I get from server.

[Ertan ERBEK]

Also I install perl-SOAP-Lite.noarch packet to boot system but result same.

[Ian Chapman]

Which vboxService.pm file did you try? The first or the second one?

[Ertan ERBEK]

Second file.

[Ertan ERBEK]

What you think about my problem ?

[Ertan ERBEK]

Why or how I don't have any idea but I re try this day and this time I can connect to my Virtualbox Server.

But RemoteBox can't get my Guest Group information from server why I don'T know.

[Ertan ERBEK]

Also I atached some picture to this ticket from server xml file and phpvirtualbox UI.

[Ian Chapman]

Firstly:

You say you tried the second vboxService.pm. Did you try the the first vboxService.pm BEFORE the second one, as I asked? If so, does that make a difference at all?

Secondly:

The 'login' issue is related to perl 5.18. RemoteBox v1.8 should already be fixed to workaround it. At least it works for me on every test distro I have tried using perl 5.18, including Fedora 20. However, the fix may not have been working for you, which is why I was backing out the fix in stages to see if that made the SOAP errors go away. Hence the trying different vboxService.pm files.

The gory details. The login bug is probably related to the random hash seeding introduced in Perl 5.18 which no longer guarantees that sequencing through hashes will return values in the same order on each launch. Software which relies on that, was relying on unblessed behaviour. I suspect the culprit is a bug in perl-SOAP-Lite which sends invalid SOAP messages to the server side, pseudo randonly. That is, it varies each time you start RemoteBox. This has the side effect of failing to login, but the culprit is an invalid SOAP message.

Thirdly:

I believe you are not seeing the groups because you don't have any VirtualBox groups set it appears. I can see from your configuration file that phpVirtualBox is using the extradata field to simulate groups but that is a custom configuration for phpVirtualBox. VirtualBox groups are held in the machines .vbox file and look like this:

<Groups>
  <Group name="/Legacy"/>
</Groups>

Please try setting a group on a guest in RemoteBox and see if it shows up. I suspect the groups wouldn't even show up in VirtualBox itself.

Hope that helps

[Ertan ERBEK]

Firstly:

You say you tried the second vboxService.pm. Did you try the the first vboxService.pm BEFORE the second one, as I asked? If so, does that make a difference at all?

Yes I also try first file firstly and get some error. Also some time second file not give me error but can't connect to server side some time connect so not stabil. But I think this problem comming from Virtualbox API/perl not from you software.

Thirdly:

My idea, I create that group with PHPVirtualBox, so I have group but not standart so this problem comming my server/xml file.

Dear Thank you for your all work, your softare realy go perfect.

[Ian Chapman]

No worries, thank you for letting me know that you tried the first vboxService.pm and it didn't make any difference. :-)

On your Fedora 20 machine that you're running RemoteBox on, have you ever in installed the perl-SOAP lite manually or from source? The reason I ask, is because I cannot reproduce these SOAP errors:

unhandled exception in callback:
Wrong SOAP version specified. Supported versions:
1.1 (http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/)
1.2 (http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope)
...
...

I have the perl-SOAP-Lite RPM installed on my Fedora 20 machine.

May I ask that you post the output from these two commands?

Command1:

rpm -V perl-SOAP-Lite

Command2:

locate "SOAP/Lite.pm"

Thanks :-)

[Ertan ERBEK]

Dear, Sorry my late replay.

No I just use repo packet at my computer also I get your needed command output and you can see at following line.

[e-diablo@homless ~]$ sudo yum install perl-SOAP-Lite.noarch
Loaded plugins: langpacks, refresh-packagekit
Package perl-SOAP-Lite-0.716-3.fc20.noarch already installed and latest version
Nothing to do
[e-diablo@homless ~]$ rpm -V perl-SOAP-Lite
[e-diablo@homless ~]$ locate "SOAP/Lite.pm"
/usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/SOAP/Lite.pm
[e-diablo@homless ~]$

[Ian Chapman]

Thanks for that, your install looks normal to me. In fact identical to my test Fedora 20 installation. I've even set up a Centos 6.5 server as I noticed it looked like your server was running RHEL and connected from Fedora 20 and it still works without issue for me, so at the moment I cannot reproduce the SOAP errors you were seeing

[Ian Chapman]

Actually, I might have just noticed what it could be, even though I can't reproduce the soap error myself. Could you try this vboxService.pm file please, replacing your current one. Let me know if that fixes the SOAP errors. Thanks.

[Ertan ERBEK]

Dear Ian,

Working perfectly but I will test more also I will use your software UI instead of Virtualbox Orjinal UI on my desktop because I love headless start :)

[Ian Chapman]

Great! :-) Thanks for your help. Even though I couldn't reproduce the errors myself, I think the cause was me passing the soap versions as a numeric (1.1) instead of a string ('1.1'). Anyway, I'll probably release RemoteBox 1.8.1 in the next few days with just this bug fixed as it's quite serious for users that are affected by it.

[Ian Chapman]

Thank you, this should be fixed in RemoteBox 1.8.1
