Shared folders are no longer accessible/visible

[Carlos Castaneda]

Since Version 4.3.22 shared folders are no longer accessible nor visible within VBOXSRV in Windows network. This used to work up to version 4.3.20 and when opening VBOXSRV folder there was a list of all defined shared folders.

Error starting program from share

same here !

ENV:

• Fedora 21, 64 bit, full updated
• Kernel 3.19
• Guest: Windoof 7 Home, 32 bit, full updated

VB-Logs look sane to me, no error messages regarding shares

no selinux hassle

moved back to VB 4.3.20_96996_fedora18-1.x86_64

PS

Maybe related: I'm unable to start (some) programs from shares since ages...

Suspect it's the same as:

It seems to be the same, but the ticket was opened for 4.3.20 and this version works in my environment. I got the problem when upgrading to 4.3.22.

Host Win7Prof Guests Win7Prof and Win2012R2

After reinstalling 4.3.20 and 4.3.20GA all works fine again.

I reported it against a 4.3.21 test build. 4.3.20 was just the latest version which you could choose in the bug report.

The 4.2.28 guest additions work fine with 4.3.22 and seem to be behave way better than 4.3.xx. Even Vista 3D works.

Thanks for the report.

Fixed in VBoxGuestAdditions_4.3.23-98282.iso

This is the same problem as in #13786
