tried looking online for the last 2 hours and I can't find an answer, tried enabling every single thing possible (Hyper-V, Virtual Machine Platform and wsl in turn windows features or off) but the problem presists.
when trying to install wsl2 from scratch I get error code 0x80070032, and when trying to upgrade wsl1 I get this:
"Conversion in progress, this may take a few minutes...
For information on key differences with WSL 2 please visit https://aka.ms/wsl2
The request is not supported."

I'm on windows 10 and I'm encountering Docker on Windows crashing on startup.
I just installed docker on windows and have a couple of containers spinning up (last night). I've been able to use it but after reboot, or shutdown, this was the behaviour ever since. Pretty unstable.
It looks like this and terminates after a while without any prompt of an error.
More info that I have Hyper-V installed on my machine and "Use the WSL 2 based engine" option enabled on docker.
On my end, I was able to solve this by:
Going to Apps & Features
Search for Ubuntu (or any linux distro you've installed)
Click on it and navigate to Advance options
Click on Reset button.
Also, try to trial and error which docker on windows version is stable with your system.
Hope that helps.
Hoping this is the right place to ask this. I'm trying to learn React Native and I'm using Expo as my medium for deployment, but I'm finding that I'm literally getting 20 minutes at a time before my browser fails to connect with the error code ERR_CONNECTION_FAILED. I've tried the following:
netsh winsock reset, then the related ipconfig commands for flushing DNS settings
Clearing browser caches
Updating drivers
I'm at my wits end as the only thing that completely solves it is restarting my laptop, which for obvious reasons isn't feasible every 20 minutes, so I'm hoping somebody can help.
I'm experiencing the same issue with Expo in this environment:
Windows 10, version 1909 (OS build 18363.476)
using WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) with Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
These links were useful to learn why this is happening:
https://github.com/expo/expo-cli/issues/99
https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/2913
https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/3951
In essence, this issue seems to be due to a problem with WSL. Per a post in the first link, I tried the alternative to restarting the computer and it worked - it made the ERR_CONNECTION_FAILED problems disappear...for 20 minutes. That alternative is as follows:
WIN+R -> services.msc
Find LxssManager
Right-click -> Restart
This restarts the WSL service which also means that the WSL instance that was running gets terminated. This is less than ideal, but at least a computer restart is avoided. The third link says this WSL problem is fixed in Windows Insider Build 18890.
I am now considering spinning up a VM to run Ubuntu instead of trying to use WSL for Expo projects.
I uninstalled the latest Windows updates, and the problem has not surfaced since.
I am reading a book about Hadoop now. The books says you need to download and install VMware Workstation Player (Windows 7 version)
https://my.vmware.com/en/web/vmware/free#desktop_end_user_computing/vmware_workstation_player/14_0
Then, apparently, I need to download and install CentOS6, from here.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/centos-6-vmware/
Once the VM is running, you need to go to File > Open, and run the centos program. The problem I am having is that I can't install the VM; I'm getting an error message that reads 'This host supports Intel VT-x, but Intel VT-x is disabled'. So, I Googled this, and I don't have anything that is listed there (no Processor submenu, no Chipset, Advanced CPU Configuration, and no Northbridge). There must install Hadoop, I hope. What is the easiest way to get this up and running on a Windows 7 machine? I just want to follow some of the steps from the book. Thanks.
I ran into an error after installing VMware Fusion on my mac, that it couldn't find /dev/vmmon. After some digging, I've learned that there are only so many available character devices, and that other software I have has consumed them.
Since I actively use Viscosity and Virtualbox (for the time being), the only other one that I could find I had was Intel HAXM driver.
Instructions online suggest to run a script to uninstall it, however that script did not exist on my laptop.
I unloaded the driver with the command:
sudo kextunload -b com.intel.kext.intelhaxm
I wanted to determine if there is anything else I need to do, will this driver attempt to reload during boot?
Thanks!
The Intel HAXM docs show that as of 2018, there is an uninstall script:
sudo /Library/Extensions/intelhaxm.kext/Contents/Resources/uninstall.sh
I had the same issue, Tim Potter's solution fixed my issue ,
sudo kextunload -b com.intel.kext.intelhaxm
Thanks
Cannot find /dev/vmmon (VMware Fusion 8.5.1 on macOS 10.12.1)
I had the same problem.
After a lot of trial and error, and helpful support from VMware I got it to work by
Create another user on the mac
log in as that new user
start fusion
create a new virtual machine (custom, windows7, no actual OS installation)
If machine starts, then vmmon is restored correctly
switch back to your normal user, start fusion and your existing vm
I have not investigated WHY this works, and VMware-support couldn´t tell me either. For now - I do not care. It works, and I can run my vms again.
Host machine was ported from 11.10 to 12.04 LTS (Xubuntu)
Virtualbox image is win7 x64
With upgrade /dev/vboxdrv was missing, so within synaptics I reinstalled:
virtualbox (4.1.12dsfg-2 not OSE)
virtualbox-qt 4.1.12dsfg
virtualbox-dkms 4.1.12dsfg
Then it works again but my windows is badly crashed. Once started and desktop icons pops out it's really slow and crash (network icon is also blocked)
I reinstalled guest additions, but does not make any difference.
Nothing is serious because I still have available snapshots.
I'm asking for advices, like for example how do I clean reinstall (clear parameters) vbox ?
Is there any workaround, or do I need to wait fresh 12.04LTS updates to fix this pbm by magic ?
I can confirm this bug on two of my Ubuntu 12.04 machines (i7 Desktop, Samsung Dual Core Laptop):
All my Windows (Win7, WinServer2003,WinServer 2008) 64bit guest machines which were working under Ubuntu 11.10 behave the same way after upgrading / reinstalling to Ubuntu Precise:
During guest bootup or shortly after bootup (sometimes I can even access the guest's desktop for a moment) the complete system host + guest freezes completly.
The Vbox.log doesnt contain any hint. Even a fresh install of Ubuntu Precise has the same error (with the same guest machines).
I have not found any combination of guest settings which prevents this freeze yet. Even using the OSE edition of Virtualbox 4.1.12-UbuntuR7724S has the same error.
The probably-related VirtualBox bug ticket says it is fixed in VirtualBox source, and also details a workaround via grub.
The Debian bug is here.
Hopefully the patch will be applied to Ubuntu-12.04 .
(This answer is also at: https://askubuntu.com/questions/130726/win-7-virtual-box-vm-fails-to-start-after-upgrade-to-12-04 )
I can't be sure that I was having the same problem, but I also just upgraded from ubuntu 11.10 to 12.04 and attempting to boot my virtual machine (xp 32bit) would cause the host to freeze.
The fix was to do the following:
Enable absolute pointing device (almost certainly wasnt this that fixed it but hey ho!)
Enable VT-x/AMD-V acceleration and nested paging (found under settings->System->Acceleration)
Disable video acceleration (again dont think it was this but I don't fancy fiddling now it works)
Hope this works for you too.
