Any Virtualbox on CentOS guru's out there?
I only have 1 VM on my linux host. in the update process to virtualbox 6.1.16 my config was lost. When I run Virtualbox my VM does not show. So I desire to add it back.
My structure is this. ls -l /home/silentm/vmware/CentOS\ 64-bit\ LSI/ -rw------- 1 silentm silentm 8684 Aug 13 08:31 CentOS 64-bit LSI.nvram -rw-r--r-- 1 silentm silentm 0 Feb 27 2017 CentOS 64-bit LSI.vmsd -rwxr-xr-x 1 silentm silentm 2735 Aug 13 08:31 CentOS 64-bit LSI.vmx -rw-r--r-- 1 silentm silentm 272 Feb 27 2017 CentOS 64-bit LSI.vmxf -rw-r--r-- 1 silentm silentm 32796639232 Nov 17 08:34 CentOS 7-64bit LSI.vmdk -rw-r--r-- 1 silentm silentm 107382571008 Aug 13 09:05 CentOS 7.vhdx -rw-r--r-- 1 silentm silentm 323155 Aug 5 08:39 vmware-0.log -rw-r--r-- 1 silentm silentm 323085 Jun 30 14:14 vmware-1.log -rw-r--r-- 1 silentm silentm 256013 May 31 10:09 vmware-2.log -rw-r--r-- 1 silentm silentm 322239 Aug 13 08:31 vmware.log
When I click add and goto the directory above - IT ONLY wants to add *.xml and *.vbox. So that is no good. When I click New and Enter my name, and use existing disk - it does not like that either.
How can I get this same VM to be in my menu and run again ? Thanks, Jerry

My Centos 8 Virtualbox image directory contains the following files:
$ ls -R .: 'Centos 8.vbox' 'Centos 8.vbox-prev' 'Centos 8.vdi' Logs Snapshots
./Logs: VBox.log VBox.log.1 VBox.log.2 VBox.log.3
./Snapshots: 2020-11-06T23-19-52-568532000Z.sav {be3832a9-9a12-474b-b1dc-74841335520a}.vdi
You don't appear to have any .vbox or .vdi files in your directory, so whatever you have ain't Virtualbox.
It says vmware in your log filenames, so maybe you should be setting up vmware instead of Virtualbox. (They are different things.)
Hi Frank - Thanks. Gosh crazy of me. The Vmware icon was missing on the left hot menu. So I was mistakenly running Virtual Box (of which I never had added anything)...
I re-added the vmware player - and my files are there like always. Long day. Thanks for the knock in the head.
Jerry
I haven't experienced this error yet.
Did you update the "Extension Pack"?
