VirtualBox Undefined Symbol Error
When attempting to start a Virtualbox VM virtualbox dies with a symbol error. Anyone else seen this one? I have rebuild the VBox drivers. awilliam@bestia:~> VirtualBox /usr/lib/virtualbox/VirtualBox6: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/virtualbox/VirtualBox6: undefined symbol: _ZN36UINotificationProgressMachinePowerUpC1ERK8CMachineN8UICommon10LaunchModeE awilliam@bestia:~> awilliam@bestia:~> rpm -q virtualbox virtualbox-7.0.8-lp154.2.32.2.x86_64 awilliam@bestia:~> uname -a Linux bestia 5.14.21-150400.24.46-default #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Thu Feb 9 08:38:18 UTC 2023 (2d95137) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux -- Adam Tauno Williams <mailto:awilliam@whitemice.org> GPG D95ED383 Systems Administrator, Python Developer, LPI / NCLA
First Update your System, it seems you are not running the latest kernel. Also post: zypper lr -d and zypper se -si kernel virtualbox

Resolved - Removed all virtualbox related packages - reboot - sudo zypper install virtualbox virtualbox-host-source kernel-devel kernel-default-devel - sudo /usr/sbin/vboxconfig - VirtualBox VMs can now be started. virtualbox-7.0.8-lp154.2.32.2.x86_64 On Mon, 2023-07-10 at 15:03 -0400, Adam Tauno Williams wrote:

Hi, Although it is different from this case, I've been in similar situation after zypper update and arrived here. $ VirtualBox Warning: program compiled against libxml 210 using older 209 Warning: program compiled against libxml 210 using older 209 VBoxManage: error: Failed to create the VirtualBox object! VBoxManage: error: Code NS_ERROR_ABORT (0x80004004) - Operation aborted (extended info not available) VBoxManage: error: Most likely, the VirtualBox COM server is not running or failed to start. /usr/lib/virtualbox/VirtualBox6: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/virtualbox/UICommon.so: undefined symbol: _ZN11QToolButton13checkStateSetEv, version Qt_5 The reason why was incorrect configration in my repository file by accidentally. My solution was: 1. Check if there was misconfiguration in /etc/zypp/repos.d - It was pointed 15.5 instead of 15.4 in my 1 repo file. 2. Remove virtualbox package by zypper rm virtualbox. 3. Re-install virtualbox by zypper in virtualbox. $ rpm -q virtualbox virtualbox-7.0.8-lp154.2.32.2.x86_64 $ uname -r 5.14.21-150400.24.63-default -- koga <ikoga@opensuse.org>
