VirtualBox Crashes when Switching Networking Adaptor's "Attached To" — at Initial Version

Reported by: Jamie Jackson Owned by:
Component: network Version: VirtualBox 4.1.8
Keywords: Cc:
Guest type: Linux Host type: Windows

Description

VBox: 4.1.8r75467
Host: Win7
Guest: Ubuntu 11.10

Steps to reproduce

  • Adaptor 3 starts out in Bridged Mode, on my Host's Wireless NIC.
  • I switch Adaptor 3 to NAT.

The host pops up a dialog box that VirtualBox has closed (or something like that). Clicking OK (or whatever the button says) makes the guest window disappear, and the guest shows as aborted.

I've been trying different things to work around this, including "unplugging" (disconnecting) the adaptor before switching its attachment (as I had done to produce the attached log), but that fails, too.

Switching the attachment doesn't always crash VBox, but it seems to maybe 50% of the time.

Oh, and this is new in 4.1.8. My previous version didn't crash with this (common, for me) use case.

VBox.log: Same thing again (switched from bridged to NAT). You'll see I took a snapshot beforehand, anticipating the crash.
