Donwloaded DockerToolbox-1.9.1f.exe and kicked off Docker Quickstart Terminal on Windows 10. Did not go well.

So switched to CLI as following and always ends up with the error.

VBoxManage.exe: error: Context: "LockMachine(a->session, LockType_Write)" at line 493 of file VBoxManageModifyVM.cpp

Sounds like you're having some path issues.

  1. Right click on "This PC" / "My Computer" on windows desktop
  2. Select "Properties"
  3. Go to "Advanced" tab
  4. Click "Environment Variables..." at the bottom
  5. Under System Variables click "New..."
  6. Set "Variable name" to "VBOX_INSTALL_PATH"
  7. Set "Variable value" to "C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\" (or where your vbox is installed)
  8. Select "OK" and close all the other settings windows
yugou commented 8 years ago

Arigatou, FrenchBen

It has been set and conducted my operations under the env var set.

C:\Windows\System32>env | grep VBOX VBOX_INSTALL_PATH=C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\ VBOX_USER_HOME=C:\Users\norio.VirtualBox

C:\Windows\System32>cd %VBOX_INSTALL_PATH% C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox>ls DbgPlugInDiggers.dll VBoxEFI32.fd VBoxSVC.exe ...

FrenchBen commented 8 years ago

Doitamashite @yugou - Is it working now? or still having the same issue?

yugou commented 8 years ago

The reported glitch was under VBOX_INSTALL_PATH var set.

FrenchBen commented 8 years ago

Good to hear it's working

yugou commented 8 years ago

No, it's NOT working.

FrenchBen commented 8 years ago

I thought from above, you said the glitch was in the VBOX_INSTALL_PATH ? Can you try to uninstall Virtualbox and re-install it?

yugou commented 8 years ago

Sorry for the confusion. Irrespective of VBOX_INSTALL_PATH is set or not, I face the VBoxManage.exe: error: Context: "LockMachine(a->session, LockType_Write)" at line 493 of file VBoxManageModifyVM.cpp

I tried re-installation a couple of times, but no luck.

FrenchBen commented 8 years ago

Can you open Virtualbox and confirm that the 'default' machine has been created and that you can manually start/stop it?

What anti-virus are you running?

yugou commented 8 years ago

Although the error, yes, a half cooked default is created and able to start/stop. Why I say "a half cooked" because

  1. Starting it on VirtulBox Manager, but I do not get the console so cannot operate in the default OS.
  2. My Windows is x64, but the default OS was created as 32bit Linux.

What anti-virus are you running?

No anti-virus running on my Windows, but only Defender. In case, I turned off the Defender and tried the same, but resulted in the same error.

vmdefaulterror

FrenchBen commented 8 years ago

It's very difficult for me to help when this isn't something happening on my OS and also very specific to VirtualBox - Can you provide a screenshot of the interface that exist for this VM? Adapters + Host-Only Adapters

yugou commented 8 years ago

Is this enough, FrenchBen?

ipconfig

FrenchBen commented 8 years ago

Could you give me the screenshots from the Virtualbox App? I'm more familiar with those.

Thanks!

yugou commented 8 years ago

Ok, sure.

host-only networks

Arigatou

FrenchBen commented 8 years ago

I think that's your issue - You should have 1 Host-Only network interface setup to use 192.168.99.100. Yours isn't setup like that. You can delete it, delete the VM and then re-open kitematic to get a fresh VM created.

There's some info in the wiki: https://github.com/docker/kitematic/wiki/Common-Issues-and-Fixes#kitematic-vm-stuck-at-99-or-cannot-pull-images

yugou commented 8 years ago

You can delete it, delete the VM and then re-open kitematic to get a fresh VM created.

The same error occurred.

Then referenced to https://github.com/docker/kitematic/wiki/Common-Issues-and-Fixes#kitematic-vm-stuck-at-99-or-cannot-pull-images. Added 2 adapters: one of which with 192.168.99.100.

host-only networks_2

defaultCreateError.txt

The same error. No luck.

FrenchBen commented 8 years ago

don't add the adapters manually - remove them all and let Kitematic add them. You should see a pop-up asking for permission to add them, click on 'allow' when that happens

yugou commented 8 years ago

FrenchBen san

don't add the adapters manually - remove them all and let Kitematic add them.

I did what you indicated many times before posting to this #360 issue.

Under fresh env.(No VM, No Host-only Networks), kicked off Kitematic. I get the same error once again.

FrenchBen commented 8 years ago

Ping @nathanleclaire any idea what's going on here?

yugou commented 8 years ago

I have tried what you guys suggested wipe out default VM and clean up Host-only Networks # of times. Always run into the same error, even now.

vmdefaulterror2

rmobis commented 8 years ago

I tried installing it on another machine of mine and it worked perfectly. The only difference between both machines that I think could matter is that i think I had already tried to install Docker on the first machine with Boot2Docker, a long time ago, without success.

FrenchBen commented 8 years ago

@rmobis I have seen 'older' Virtualbox versions creating havoc when trying to create a new version. Good to hear it works well on a vanilla machine. Unfortunately vbox upgrades aren't as smooth as one would hope - Hence the repeated advice to wipe the install clean then try again.

yugou commented 8 years ago

Hence the repeated advice to wipe the install clean then try again.

Would you kindly telling me other than uninstalling of VBox, what needs to be done? I mean which directories need to be removed, that created by VBox?

FrenchBen commented 8 years ago

@yugou I am probably not the best on vbox knowledge of 'clean' uninstall - I did however find this thread, which may help: https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=68820

FrenchBen commented 8 years ago

@yugou Can you check and see if perhaps you have Hyper-V enabled/running? See: https://github.com/docker/kitematic/issues/1399#issuecomment-180060648

yugou commented 8 years ago

@FrenchBen san Hyper-V has not been enabled/installed on my Windows 10 system.

In case, disabled Intel HT and tried.

dsc_0311

No luck, the same error.

nathanleclaire commented 8 years ago

@yugou Enabling hardware virtualization in the BIOS is different than checking if Hyper-V is configured. You can see the Hyper-V setting in Windows menus (e.g. in Windows features http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/hyper-v-run-virtual-machines).

If your machine does not support Hyper-V it will simply be missing from the menu.

yugou commented 8 years ago

@nathanleclaire Windows10 Hypuer-V has not been enabled. BIOS Hypuer-V you are talking about is shown as Intel Visualization Tech on my BIOS setting and that has been enabled since years ago.

rmobis commented 8 years ago

No Hyper-V here either:

yugou commented 8 years ago

@mobis　san Arigatou. I know Hyper-V menu on Windows Features and it has never been clicked, thus never installed.

rmobis commented 8 years ago

As per https://github.com/docker/kitematic/issues/1399#issuecomment-180530234, updating my Windows (even if that was quite troublesome) solved the issue.

yugou commented 8 years ago

My Windows 10 has been always updated and has been facing this issue under the latest Windows' update.

I have the same problem, I fire up Kitematic and it creates a default Docker container, then I run docker-machine start default and get this:

$ docker-machine start default

VBoxManage.exe: error: Context: "LockMachine(a->session, LockType_Write)" at line 493 of file VBoxManageModifyVM.cpp

I've tried reinstalling VirtualBox, running version 5.0.16-10. I have two Host-only networks after installing VirtualBox, one at 192.168.99.1 and one at 192.168.56.1. My Windows 10 is up to date, and I'm only running Windows Defender, no other antivirus. My virtualisation is enabled. I also use VirtualBox with Vagrant with no problems, and when I start that it adds another Host-only network on the IP address specified in my Vagrantfile.

UPDATE: I got it running. The reason I was running docker-machine start default was because I'd fired up Kitematic, it had created the default container, but when I ran docker-machine status it said it was stopped. I think the problem was a mismatch between what was being reported by docker-machine and what was actually happening. I'd recommend deleting the relevant host-only network, shutting down the VM in the VirtualBox interface, and starting it again with docker-machine start default.

nathanleclaire commented 8 years ago

I think the problem was a mismatch between what was being reported by docker-machine and what was actually happening

Out of curiosity, when you saw this behavior, was the VM displaying "Saved" state in the VirtualBox GUI?

knandula commented 8 years ago

I had the same issue recently , for me the virtualBox GUI ("default") showing state was running . I simply powered it off and then started my docker and everything works well.

aniruddh02 commented 8 years ago

It worked for me by simply powering off the virtual machine (default) and restarting docker.

andreikun commented 8 years ago

Hello,

Please try to vagrant up or homestead or whatever vagrant or homestead command you need from a command line run as administrator. I fixed my own issue while trying to vagrant up and ssh my machine by hitting this commands from a command prompt as administrator.

Hope this will fix your issue.

This is especially for Windows users.

@rjfisher123 I went through the resolution path you posted above; however, I am still receiving an error when trying to vagrant up... vagrant up error ssh

Windows 10 OS; Vagrant 1.8.6

any ideas?

The LockMachine(a->session, LockType_Write) issue is due to a lack of administrator access token request by the command prompt or VirtualBox API client (i.e., Kitematic). Ideed, without administrator access token, client will not be able to override the machine's lock defined by VBoxHeadless elevated process and will return such this error.

Here is a way to solve this issue:

reg add "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers" /v "C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe" /t REG_SZ /d "~ RUNASADMIN" /f
reg add "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers" /v "C:\Windows\SysWOW64\cmd.exe" /t REG_SZ /d "~ RUNASADMIN" /f
reg add "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers" /v "C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\VirtualBox.exe" /t REG_SZ /d "~ RUNASADMIN" /f
reg add "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers" /v "C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox\kitematic\Kitematic.exe" /t REG_SZ /d "~ RUNASADMIN" /f

reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers" /v "C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe" /t REG_SZ /d "~ RUNASADMIN" /f
reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers" /v "C:\Windows\SysWOW64\cmd.exe" /t REG_SZ /d "~ RUNASADMIN" /f
reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers" /v "C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\VirtualBox.exe" /t REG_SZ /d "~ RUNASADMIN" /f
reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers" /v "C:\Program Files\Docker Toolbox\kitematic\Kitematic.exe" /t REG_SZ /d "~ RUNASADMIN" /f

or using registry import file:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers]
"C:\\Windows\\System32\\cmd.exe"="~ RUNASADMIN"
"C:\\Windows\\SysWOW64\\cmd.exe"="~ RUNASADMIN"
"C:\\Program Files\\Oracle\\VirtualBox\\VirtualBox.exe"="~ RUNASADMIN"
"C:\\Program Files\\Docker Toolbox\\kitematic\\Kitematic.exe"="~ RUNASADMIN"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\AppCompatFlags\Layers]
"C:\\Windows\\System32\\cmd.exe"="~ RUNASADMIN"
"C:\\Windows\\SysWOW64\\cmd.exe"="~ RUNASADMIN"
"C:\\Program Files\\Oracle\\VirtualBox\\VirtualBox.exe"="~ RUNASADMIN"
"C:\\Program Files\\Docker Toolbox\\kitematic\\Kitematic.exe"="~ RUNASADMIN"

I has the same issue. The key point is "Run as Administrator", run your VirtualBox or Terminal as administrator, in other case you have no write permissions.
