Request: Improve VMCloak logging

[lab313ru]

Trying to install adobe9: just python.exe empty window is visible in VirtualBox window.
There is no any Adobe processes created in VM, there is no something non-standard processes too.

I have personally not really tested the 32-bit Windows 7 stuff yet.

[lab313ru]

Could you, please?

[razuz]

I'll take a run with that latest tomorrow ... lets see if I can reproduce that

[razuz]

just tested and it works fine on 32bit.
@lab313ru Can you retry ? does this happen all the time you do "vmcloak install" and with any of packages ?

[razuz]

one thing you can try is to click "Ctrl+C" on the python window if that makes any difference

[lab313ru]

Ctrl+C just closes python.exe window.
And I cannot install any package with install option.

[razuz]

are you running on latest code from master ?

[lab313ru]

Latest at the day of creating this issue.
Host machine is Linux Mint.

[razuz]

sort of running out of ideas :) can vboxnet0 interface and vm see each other ? maybe some iptables rules are killing the comms ?

[lab313ru]

How to check it (ping is working)?

[razuz]

ping is one thing but you can also try to telnet to port 8000 against vm IP from mint side

[lab313ru]

But when installing Windows, it installs Python, so it works, doesn't it?

[razuz]

yes it should ... I'm quite impressed that it cannot install packages there and gets stuck

[lab313ru]

Could you make some log system for vmcloak, so we may find step, when it stucks?

[razuz]

we could do that ... but not this week

I got the same problem. I've created a win7 (x64) virtual machine with vmcloak (not fully automatically, I still need to manually click). When I ran "vmcloak install seven0 adobe9", I can see the virtual machine seven0 is running, but doing nothing.

[razuz]

are you running latest version ?

BR,

Yes, I am running the latest version. The problem seems solved after I changed another window ISO file. It will be great if you can improve the logging. Anyway, vmcloack is and will be a great tool.

[razuz]

cool :) apart from couple other things I'm working to improve logging ... PR should be upcoming soon

[razuz]

it's just a wild guess, but I think this issue can be closed :) --debug flag has become quite verbose and points out possible issues nicely
if there are any specific requests then I'd be happy to hear about them
