Development for LHC@home

At least for Linux I found from the wrapper the vboxmanage commands for network settings:

VBoxManage -q modifyvm "VM_NAME" --cableconnected1 on
VBoxManage -q modifyvm "VM_NAME" --nic1 nat --natdnsproxy1 on --cableconnected1 off

Did you find them in the actual wrapper? If so, how? (I'm pretty much a novice when it comes to VM management.) Is there a way to modify it? As I expected, when yesterday's run finished just now, a new task started up still with cable off.

Yes it's in wrapper version 26156.
I found the sequence of vbox manage commands in one of the error results,
but now you can see it in the result of your last aborted task too:

Maybe the second command is only useful for wireless and/or connection behind proxy.
We would have to ask Rom for the right answer and solution.

That's in hand.

Hmm, startup says it cant find cvmfs service, nor find an ethernet connection. I tried to get a copy of the boot log but many commands including scp and more fail with an input error. Investigations continue...

Well, it continues the same. Here's a screenshot that shows some of the error messages I get at the tail end of booting. (The httpd message is "normal" AFAICR.)

Yes, the httpd message is normal.
And I think that the RTNETLINK message is normal as well, at least I am seeing it on my windows machine, which is behaving normally.

Just started a new task using the 26157 wrapper on Linux... Cable connected OK...
Weeeeeeee off we go.

I'm running vboxwrapper v26159 anonymous now.
For MAC that version is also compiled/available.
Not for Linux, maybe not needed cause Linux probably don't suffer from the same error condition.

Thanks CP, we'll probably upgrade to that very soon. Laurence will decide.

Since vboxwrapper v26159 now is the stock application for Windows,
I'm not running CMS Simulation anonymously anymore,
but use the here called v46.12 application, what's the same.
