vbox unhardened windows build - vm doesn't start

[igntec]

Hello, there.

I have built and installed Qt 5.6.3, OpenSSL 1.1.1, and Curl 7.75.0 from source

My LocalConfig.kmk: VBOX_WITH_ADDITIONS= VBOX_WITH_ADDITIONS_PACKING= VBOX_WITH_VALIDATIONKIT= VBOX_WITH_WEBSERVICES= VBOX_WITHOUT_HARDENING=1 VBOX_SIGNING_MODE=test VBOX_PATH_SIGN_TOOLS=E:\Programs\WDK71\bin\amd64 VBOX_INF2CAT=E:\Programs\WDK71\bin\selfsign\Inf2Cat.exe

My certificate is called mytestcert.cer

My build commands: set BUILD_TARGET_ARCH=amd64 cscript configure.vbs --with-DDK=E:\Programs\WDK71 --with-MinGW-w64=E:\Programs\mingw64 --with-libSDL=E:\Programs\SDL-x64 --with-openssl=E:\Programs\OpenSSL-x64 --with-openssl32=E:\Programs\OpenSSL-x32 --with-libcurl=E:\Programs\Curl-x64 --with-libcurl32=E:\Programs\Curl-x32 --with-Qt5=E:\Programs\Qt5-x64 --with-python=E:\Programs\Python27 env.bat kmk

My post-build commands: comregister.cmd loadall.cmd

Drivers are installed successfully.

VirtualBox.exe starts fine, however I can't start any virtual machine. The error is:

The virtual machine 'Windows 7' has terminated unexpectedly during startup with exit code -1073741515 (0xc0000135).

Result Code: E_FAIL (0x80004005) Component: MachineWrap Interface: IMachine {85632c68-b5bb-4316-a900-5eb28d3413df}

Running VirtualBox.exe as Administrator doesn't help.

Build is unhardened, however it still should work. On Ubuntu unhardened build works fine. Do you know how to fix the problem? Thank you.

VM start failure

[WillH]

I am experiencing the same problem. VirtualBox starts up fine. Existing VM fails to start with same error as this ticket describes. Failed to open a session for the virtual machine C7.

The virtual machine 'C7' has terminated unexpectedly during startup with exit code 1 (0x1). More details may be available in 'D:\VirtualBox VMs\C7\Logs\VBoxHardening.log'.

Result Code: E_FAIL (0x80004005) Component: MachineWrap Interface: IMachine {85632c68-b5bb-4316-a900-5eb28d3413df}

I have tried some suggestions found using Google and sometimes they help, but next reboot or start of VirtualBox results in same bad behavior. I also have uninstalled VirtualBox 6.1.18 and re-installed. It sometimes seems to let the VM start up and other times the same error appears. Both the install of VirtualBox 6.1.18 and the startup of VirtualBox 6.1.18 were done as administrator.

The issue is resolved.

VirtualBox.exe creates separate VirtualBoxVM.exe process to run virtual machine. VirtualBoxVM.exe has additional dependency - Qt5OpenGL.dll

Normally, if dll dependency is not found, Windows shows message box with missing dll's name. However, since VirtualBoxVM.exe process is created programmatically, no message box is shown, and virtual machine start fails with strange error number.

So, just don't forget to copy Qt5OpenGL.dll to bin folder.
