[Dropped] vdautomount fails to find the machine

Hello,
I'm using virtualbox-bin 4.3.20r96996, so I'd like some time to inspect some file into the VDI. Then I installed vdfuse but, the mounting still awful.
The python2 script vdautomount is not able to find the machine name nor the UUID.
All of these functions are based on the VboxAPI, found in the python2 libraries, but while VBoxManage gets the info, the script is some kind of trouble and even I tried to use some of the classes, then they fail.
Anyways, vdfuse mounts my VDI, but still some missing step to have the access to the file system. I hope that vdautomount will do it for me. Unfortunately I'm scarcely able to get vdautomount work.
Here's the report.
Any point ?

I did:
$ mkdir /tmp/XPvdi
$ sudo vdautomount "xp" /tmp/XPvdi/
Usage: vdautomount [options] machine-name-or-uuid mountpoint
vdautomount: error: couldn't find machine "xp"
$ VBoxManage showvminfo xp |grep -i uuid
UUID: 67ed29f5-7d85-4322-aa6c-2a49110884d4

vdautomount: error: couldn't find machine "1f996f93-9f59-4c3c-a9f9-dab62b9c3df0"
$ vdfuse -f /mnt/Store/Vboximg/Electron-14-08-11.vdi /tmp/XPvdi/
$ ls -l /tmp/XPvdi/
total 20968141

-rw------- 1 user users 10733958144 17 gen 15.46 Partition1
Even I switched to community/virtualbox, deleted all /home related files and reinstall vdfuse, the problem hasn't change anything. The problem isn't the vdautomount script, but is rather the python2 vboxapi toolkit.
Can you show me
VBoxManage showvminfo "My VM Name" |grep -i '(uuid'
I don't think is a issue related to the path, the VBoxManage hasn't it.
EDIT
I inspected vdautomount and I found that is just a mere helper to find a named VM and pass the path to vdfuse execution.
My mistake was to expect that the script could find the name VM and mount it in loop, so it is possible to access the files in the partitions.
Beside that, vdautomount doesn't work, I'm  giving it up, it fill not my expectations.

  • RAID Fails to find the first device

    Hello all.
    This is my first post to the forum. I did a brief search but i couldn't find any good results, so i tought i'd post my prob here.
    I have an MSI K7N2 Delta2-LSR motherboard, with a 450W PSU (i don't have any more info on that yet), 2x512MB RAM DDR 400 (no more info on that one yet either), 2x120GB SATA WD HD, 1xDVD TEAC, 1xDVD+-RW SONY DL, 1x1.44MB FDD, an ATI RADEON 9600 PRO ALL-IN-WONDER VGA card on an nForce chipset.
    The first HD has WinXP installed on it with the raid drivers installed properly. The second HD has Mandrake 10.1 Linux installed on it.  They are installed as separate arrays.
    The problem I'm having is that while I'm working in Windows, after a while the computer completely freezes. The only possible way out of it is to reset the machine. After I do that, at the boot screen, it fails to find the first HD (the one with WinXP on it). If i turn it off for let's say 5 minutes, and boot up, it detects the HD again and goes on loading windows. After I log in i have at maximum 5 minutes before it freezes again.
    It does this every time. The more time I leave my PC turned off, the longer time it will take to freeze again when I'm logged in WinXP. I formatted the HD many times, installing every possible combination of my drivers but the problerm persists. Although it has never happened anything like that in Linux.
    Could it be the RAID Controller (onboard), the WD HDD, or the Motherboard in general?
    What can I do to find out what the problem is? And if possible, how to solve it?
    If more info is needed, I will update the info of my pc as soon as I get back home.
    P.S. I cheched the WD HDD, using WD tools like Disk Diag, etc. It never gave me any problems. I also used UBCD for win, and cheked the disk, to dicover once again, that the disk supposingly has no problems.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    Not sure what is going on here, not enough logging. Have you tried enabling WDS logging on the server side?
    The WDSMCast.exe tool can't find the file on the server side, you might want to verify that the namespace was created correctly. The "DeploymentShare$" namespace should point to whatever local directory is on your machine.

  • CRS oui failed to find the node

    Hi every friend,

But when the oui came to the page "Specify Cluster Configuration" page, The OUI can not find any node and also the ADD, EDIT , REMOVE three buttons unpressable with grey color. From the help I know that when OUI detect the third-party vendor clusterware, It will use the node infomation obtained from third-party vendor clusterware and these infomation is not able to be edited by OUI. But it seems that it can not obtain anynode infomation. I had ping the PUB/PRIV IP of both node and they are accessible. How can I make the OUI to find the node infomation?

  • DeskI schedule often  fail Cannot find the 'Universe' universe. (DA0011)

    Hello,
    I have a user with 25 reoccurring daily schedules.  Out of these one or two will fail daily with the error "Cannot fine the 'Universe Name' universe. (DA0011).  It is not always the same reoccurring schedule that fails.  It fails on any of our four DeskI nodes, and the times it fails are not consistent.
    It is only happening for instances against one universe.  When I setup a schedule for myself with the same parameters, it completes successfully.
    Business Objects Enterprise XI 3.1 SP3 FP5
    AIX 5.3
    Excel format to email.
    This appears to have started happening in October, but I have not been able to find a reason why it is happening.
    Thanks!

    Ryan:
    Were you ever able to resolve this issue?  We are having the same issue where random schedules will fail with the message cannot find the 'Universe' universe. (DA0011).  We know it is not a rights issue as we 3,000 + schedules going against the universes and only a handful will fail each day with this error.
    We are on XI 3.1 SP4, it does not make a difference if the output is excel, text or PDF it happens

  • Fail to find the file include

    I am building a game and I just simply use a txt file to store the level reached.
    Everything goes smooth but today I find something wrong.
    I have included a levelrecord.txt in the included files section in iphone iOS setting.
    But I find that after the app was installed, the apps can't read the number inside the text file, so I write the following codes to test in my iphone.
    var testfile:File = File.applicationStorageDirectory.resolvePath("levelrecord.txt");
    showtesttext.text=String(testfile.exists);
    It returns False.
    But after I play the first level, the text file is updated and then the above codes return True. And the apps can successfully update the level.
    However, if I uninstall the app and reinstall it, the problem comes again and the number had to be read after I play the first level.
    Did I accidentally change any settings therefore my text file is not included in installation? Because it works before, but I don't know when it started to have problem...
    Thank you very much!

  • :   How to find the system(machine) in the domain (network)

    Hi Everybody,
    Can some tell me how can i find the machines(system's computer's ip address)that are their in the network.
    Iam developing a small program in Java, which i want to know the m/c's that are there in the network (or domain).
    well anything even with ntive program that gives me all the ip's or m/c name as return will do.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Amit

    I have not tried this in java, but the theory is the following:
    In IP: if you want to receive response from all machines in your network, you would do the following:
    (I will take a class C network as example)
    Network: 192.168.1.0
    Ping 192.168.1.255 (this is the broadcast address).
    This way, all machines should respond. I think it is the ICMP protocol you use to do this.
    The other solution (not Ethernet, and I think impossible with java) is to make a layer 2 (data link layer) broadcast rather than a IP (layer 3) broadcast. This can be done with a special MAC address code used to broadcast.
    However, the first method should work for you, now the big question. How to use ICMP in java?

  • Fails to find HD on boot up every other time

    Starting in mid-November, shortly after replacing the battery and upgrading to 10.4.3, my ibook would not find the HD during boot up every other time I went to use it. I tried booting from the installation disc 10.4, resetting, PRAM, PMU, NVRAM, etc. but nothing short of putting the computer away for the rest of the day helped. The next day it boots up normally. If it goes to sleep, it starts the SBBOD and freezes. If I shut it down, it fails to boot up, only displaying the file folder with the alternating Mac face/question mark. The only solution is to just let it sit.
    This computer is within the range of serial numbers for the logic board recall, but did not display any symptoms within the three years, and now that is over. I don't understand the regularity with which it intermittently works and fails without anything being done to it.
    BTW, I have reinstalled 10.4, repaired permissions, done one update at a time, repairing permissions in between and it worked fine for two days and has again failed to find the HD on boot up. I have the same software on my Power PC (the same age) and have no trouble whatsoever. I'm typing this from that computer.

  • Failed to find platform-set-frequency-high

    I see this error in the System console log every time I start my 17" Powerbook 1GHz G4.
    *<username> kernel[0]: ASC::checkProperties ERROR: failed to find platform-set-frequency-high*
    *<username> kernel[0]: ASC::start ERROR: failed to find the properties*
    Startup seems to hang there while it's finding out that it can't set-frequency-high and can't find the properties.
    What is this error telling me?
    Where are the 'properties' it failed to find?
    How does one fix this error?
    Any help appreciated.

    I guess you're right there I'll move it across.

    If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Select "/var/log/install.log" from the file list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar. Then select the messages from the last installation or update attempt, starting from the time when you initiated it. If you're not sure when that was, start over and note the time. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    If there are runs of repeated messages, post only one example of each. Don’t post many repetitions of the same message.
    When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Edit it out by search-and-replace in a text editor before posting.
