Glad to see I may not be as dumb or crazy as I thought. I was starting to think I was missing something really simple in my setups. I have been searching the forums off and on for several months looking for someone with the same problem and was reluctant to file a bug report as it seemed like it only happened to me. I have seen this behavior on all versions of 3 up to and including 3.1.6
Shared folders virtualbox ubuntu guest windows#
I just came across a thread in the Windows Guest forum pointing to this ticket - I tried the subst workaround and everything I have tried on this machine so far works. The same operations on the same shared folder in a Win2000 VM work without a problem. Some programs like Quickbooks can create, delete & overwrite OK - Some like Foxpro can create and delete but not overwrite - others don't work at all. Right clicking on a file or folder in explorer there is a several second lag before the context menu pops up and then another lag after clicking on delete before the message "E: is not accessible" I too have this problem with WinXP & Win7 Guests on several different machines all running different versions of Ubuntu 8.04 32bit, 9.04 32bit, 9.04 64bit and 2 machines testing 10.04x32. Maybe this gives the developers an idea where the problem have to be searched - if they care about it. I did some tests, have installed programs on y:, without problems. So y:\folder or y:\folder\text.txt can be created, edited and removed using the explorer, while the same objects cannot be removed using x. One can work with y: without any problems. You can create and edit x:\folder\text.txt, but cannot delete it. You can create x:\folder, but cannot delete it. You can create x:\text.txt and delete it with the explorer. So this was not an option.Īfter several tests I have found a workaround. This was up to 10 times slower than accessing the same files via \vboxsvr. One was to share the directories using samba on the host. In a DOS box on the same system and vbox share one can delete folders and files without any problem.īecause I need the shares I have searched for workarounds. It seems to be a problem of the explorer. Additionally it takes a long time to open the exlporer's properties dialog of a filesystem object within the share. Using the guest's explorer one can create and edit files and folders in the vbox share, but one cannot delete any folder or files in subfolders. I have experienced the same problem with VirtualBox 3.1.2 on host Ubuntu 9.04 64bit with guest WinXP SP3 32bit. I believe this started happening with VBox 2.0 Note: if I map the shared folder to a Drive (say X:), the same problem occurs (but the error messages are slighly different). I double checked Permissions and they look all right and they look the same for the root of the folder and its sub-folders: In Linux, the folder I am sharing is in an EXT3 partition. I just can not do file operations on them.
I can edit files in sub-folders with no problems. "Cannot delete file: cannot read from the source file or disk" "Cannot copy file: cannot read from the source file or disk" To start off, open your Virtualbox and head over to the top menu.

However, when attempting to do the same in a sub-folder (e.g.: in \VBOXSVR\MYFOLDER\MISC), then I get an error message: In you are running a Virtualbox on Windows 10 and wanted to add some cool features such as folder sharing and copy/paste between your VM and the host, then you are at the right place. Using the File Explorer in the guest, I can select files, and do Copy/Paste to obtain a copy of the file. The guest can access the shared folder: it shows up in "My Network Neighbourhood" and it shows as \VBOXSVR\MYFOLDER sbin/mount.vboxsf: mounting failed with the error: No such 6.1.Shared folder issues with Virtualbox 2.1.2 running in a ubuntu 8.10 box, with a WinXP SP3 guest. When attempting to mount manually: mount -t vboxsf shared /media/sf_shared There are no errors installing GuestAdditions. Searches on this sub suggested to check disk space, there is plenty. I tried using a new directory for the Shared Folder and rebooted while standing on my head. Then added the Shared Folder entry back and rebooted again. To fix Shared Folders, I've tried reinstalling GuestAdditions, removing the Shared Folders entry in the VBox settings and rebooting the guest.

I ran apt update and apt upgrade, rebooted and my video was fucked as well as the Shared Folders feature. On a Debian 10 client and Win10 host, Virtualbox features were working fine including shared folders.
