Re: [Nix-dev] Nixops on headless server
One reason I received: VBoxManage: error: Details: code NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005) was when vboxnet0 was not set up yet. Use `ip link` to see up the vboxnet0 interface is up and running. I had to restart my server once before it showed up after installing everything needed for virtualbox. Is the server you are running this set up by nixops as well? If so you many need to include: require = [ nixos/modules/programs/virtualbox.nix ]; In the expression. I had to include: deployment.virtualbox.headless = true; in the virtualbox's nix expression, your logical.nix. Are you running your server on amazon's or possible another cloud environment? There are numerous complaints online that running virtualbox on many of the cloud environments is harder or impossible.

Re: [Nix-dev] Nixops on headless server
Hi,
would you post a minimal working example?
I made several attempts but no one worked so far.
Here is my present configuration:
# logical.nix
{
network.description = Web server;
webserver =
{ config, pkgs, ... }:
{
#require = [ nixos/modules/programs/virtualbox.nix ];
services.openssh.enable = true;
#services.virtualbox.enable = true;
#services.httpd.enable = true;
#services.httpd.adminAddr = al...@example.org;
#services.httpd.documentRoot = ${pkgs.valgrind}/share/doc/valgrind/html;
};
}
# physical.nix
{
webserver =
{ config, pkgs, ... }:
{
deployment.targetEnv = virtualbox;
deployment.virtualbox.memorySize = 1024; # megabytes
deployment.virtualbox.headless = true;
};
}
And I get the following error:
webserver VBoxManage: error: The virtual machine
'nixops-9a9af89c-6bc6-11e3-9d50-23ed2c71331d-webserver' has terminated

I found my problem.
I remembered I needed to include something like:
require = [ nixos/modules/programs/virtualbox.nix ];
in the configuration.nix, or in my nixops expression.

Hello,
I'm trying to install nixops on a headless server and I get the following

I set the option

and completely destroyed and recreated the cloud but it doesn't seem to
have affect.
Any idea?
Thanks,

Re: [Nix-dev] Nixops on headless server
Hi, would you post a minimal working example? I made several attempts but no one worked so far. The example you shared should work. Could you try to run: VBoxManage startvm nixops-9a9af89c-6bc6-11e3-9d50-23ed2c71331d-webserver --type headless And provide us with the output? This is the command that nixops runs when starting the VM. Cheers, Rob ___ nix-dev mailing list nix-dev@lists.science.uu.nl http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev
