big bug in the snapshot section

[yann458]

Hello,

The snapshot does not work at all compared to version 4.1. When I restore a snapshot of guest machine I get have the error: Failed to open a session for the virtual machine test api release (départ).

The saved state file '/media/data2/vmbox/test api release (départ)/Snapshots/2012-09-13T18-49-12-280533000Z.sav/Snapshots/2012-09-13T18-49-12-280533000Z.sav/Snapshots/2012-09-13T18-49-12-280533000Z.sav/Snapshots/2012-09-13T18-49-12-280533000Z.sav/Snapshots/2012-09-13T18-49-12-280533000Z.sav/Snapshots/2012-09-13T18-49-12-280533000Z.sav/Snapshots/2012-09-13T18-49-12-280533000Z.sav/Snapshots/2012-09-13T18-49-12-280533000Z.sav/Snapshots/2012-09-13T18-49-12-280533000Z.sav' is invalid (VERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND). Delete the saved state and try again.

Result Code: VBOX_E_FILE_ERROR (0x80BB0004) Component: Console Interface: IConsole {db7ab4ca-2a3f-4183-9243-c1208da92392}

After me the problem would probably a string (pchar) not reseted. I try repair the file .vbox , without success , and same for other guest machine which have snapshot.

I join a the description guest machine.

Have you a solution ? because it's blocker

Thank you.

I have tested a create a guest machine with out virtual harddisk. I have test without reboot the host machine : save and restore snapshot of the new guest machine created since VirtualBox 4.2 : it's OK , i don't understand. Maybe because the the guest machine "test api release (départ)" has created with older Virtualbox 4.1 version.

i tested with virtual hard disk (not formatted) attached in the new guest named "adeleter" : it's OK, snapshot work it

FINALLY! The bug is income, I had put my new guest machine in a group (implement since VirtualBox 4.2).

The bug is still there ;;;

Problem no solved ;

I have deleted the snapshot and start again and try remake the new swapshot , it's work. The guest machine work now with new snapshot.

Please describe exactly what you did to produce this error. Snapshots work fine here so I wonder what you did to see this bug.
