Windows 7 guest fails with VERR_MORE_DATA Guru in VirtualBox 5.0.18 => fixed in SVN

[matthewls]

The same VM works fine in 5.0.16. Linux guests work in both 16 and 18. Host: linux mint 17.3 kernel 4.6.7

Replying to matthewls: I had to face the same problem here on CentOS 7 (kernel 3.10.0-327.13.1.el7.x86_64). I also receive a "Guru Meditation -306 (VERR_MORE_DATA)' error. Linux guest work fine.

Thanks for the report and sorry for the regression. This will be fixed in the next maintenance release.

[matthewls]

Any work around for now other than reverting to 5.10.16?

[Frank Mehnert]

Unfortunately no workaround unless you change the storage controller but this might not work with the Windows guest. matthewls, here is a Ubuntu 14.04 test build which is basically 5.0.18 plus the fix for this bug. It affects only the LsiLogic SCSI controller.

LBB, here is a EL7 package for you.

I have similar issue in my VM. Do you have a test build for Windows?

Thank you very much! That was really fast. But before I install the package, will I work together with the 5.0.18 Extension Pack? Or do I need the matching 5.0.19 version (and where do I get it)?

[matthewls]

Wow, that was fast, thank you! I'm looking forward to testing it.

[matthewls]

OK one working machine tested (MBP 13" hosting mint). good!

[DanB]

Bingo. Working on Ubuntu 14.04.4, 3.11.0-17-generic, Win7 32 bit. Thank you.

[EnD]

Thank you. Is there a Debian Jessie build? I guess I am ok to just wait for the next maintenance release I have downgraded. Do you think you could add this on the changelog for 5.0.18 discribing the situation in which people should not ugprade?

[Frank Mehnert]

Btw, for Linux distributors: Changeset r60565 contains the fix. Only VMs with the LsiLogic device are affected. Here is a Debian 8 build.

[Jflynn]

BTW this issue is also occurring with windows 2008 r2 server. reverting back to 5.0.16 was the solution.

[Frank Mehnert]

A better solution is to use one of our test builds. As I said, only guests are affected which use the LsiLogic controller. No matter which guest.

same issue with install ubuntu xenial

[Frank Mehnert]

Fixed in 5.0.20.
