VM Freeze while copying within shared folder

Reported by: nihm Assigned to:
Priority: major Component: shared folders
Version: VirtualBox 2.0.4 Keywords: freeze
Cc: Guest type: Windows
Host type: Linux

Description

I am using ubuntu 8.04, running Vista as a guest OS. I am getting freezes when attempting to compile a .net project using nant.

I have narrowed it down to copying the file Nullables.Nhibernate.pdb (which I will attach), from one part of the shared filesystem to another.

This bug seems to be related to http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/2055. However, neither 2.0.2 or the attached vboxsf.sys work.

I have attached 2 log files, one for the 2.0.2 version of vboxsf.sys (vbox.log), which causes a Guru Meditation, and one with the vboxsf.sys attached in ticket 2055 (Vbox.log.crash-with-trac-vbox.sys-file) which just freezed the system and causes video corruption.

I will attached the file that causes this bug, Nullables.Nhibernate.pdb.

Also, this bug only happens when I am using the copy, or xcopy command (also nant's copy). Copying with Explorer does not seem to excercise this bug.

Actually, *sigh*

It only happens reliably when I xcopy from the directory.

I will attach the minimum number of files that cause this problem. The following command causes problem:

xcopy /e files temp

Thanks for your detailed report and a good testcase. The problem has been reproduced. The attached driver fixes the crash here. Please test it and let me know whether it works for you.
