Is there a way to use WinDbg with VirtualBox as it is with VMWare?
I have set up virtual machine with Windows Server 2003 within and serial port
redirected to pipe:
<Uart>
<Port IOBase="0x3f8" IRQ="4" enabled="true" hostMode="HostPipe"
path="\\.\pipe\COM2_pipe" server="true" slot="0"/>
<Port IOBase="0x2f8" IRQ="3" enabled="false" hostMode="HostDevice"
path="COM1" slot="1"/>
</Uart>
I start WinDbg with switches:
"C:\Program Files\Debugging Tools for Windows\windbg.exe" -T "Debug
VirtualBox" -b -v -y SRV*c:\Symbols*http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols -
k com:pipe,port=\\.\pipe\VBOX_pipe -c "SQE;BL"
(through OSR's WinDbgStart).
Result (in Windbg window):
Microsoft (R) Windows Debugger Version 6.8.0004.0 X86
Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.
Opened \\.\pipe\VBOX_pipe
Waiting to reconnect...
and nothing else.
Virtual machine is starting (right after I have chosen "debug" from boot menu)
and has black screen.
How to have this work?
