I prefer to use VirtualBox for running vm's on my office pc ( such as a Windows VM for non-Linux software ). It supports seamless mode which VMWare does not ( except for Fusion on Mac ). For our 'real' vm's that are running services ( webservers, squid, etc. ) we use Xen. Xen beats every other free vm hands down for this, with the exception that snapshotting in Xen is literally stopping the vm and using dd to copy the image, quite a pain. We use XenServer, which is Citrix's Xen package. It's fantastic. I should mention that VirtualBox supports vmdk files, so you could try it with your existing vm's.

Hey all,   I have finished uploading a new set of Koha virtual appliances. Each version is available in VirtualBox or VMWare formats, and in configured and unconfigured states. At the moment, there are versions for the 3.01 official release, and versions for 3.01.00.032, which was the latest from git.koha.org at the time it was created. URL: http://kylehall.info/index.php/projects/koha/koha-virtual-appliance/

Kyle, great Job on building these! I have been running 3.0.1 on VMWARE myself and the speed is better than one would think as long as Zebra is the search engine.

Very nice to see the VirtualBox worked out. I am hoping to switch to VBox once more OS admin. tools are released to manage the VMs.

Do you like VBox better at this point? I have not checked out the latest version yet.

You can log in as the use account koha and run 'sudo ifconfig' to see if if is picking up any ip address. If not, I would try 'sudo /etc/init.d/networking restart && sudo ifup eth0'. Do you have the machine set up with bridged networking? The appliance is set up for DHCP by default.

fwiw- I've run into exactly this problem before with VirtualBox (which I do like otherwise) and never found a fix -- always found it easier to reinstall to guest OS -- not a useful solution here I've suspected it might be related to the fake Ethernet addresses getting duplicated. You might try reassigning the interfaces and/or maybe turning off one and enabling another. -reed

I never use Virtual Appliances but it seems that in this linux system eth0 is renamed to eth1. If this is a Debian system, this is probably due to the fact that an eth0 interface is already 'registrered' by udev so udev register this interface with the next number (eth1). Interface are registered according to their MAC address. I do not know at all how the MAC address of the interface is created. Registered interfaces are listed (with MAC address and name) in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules

To fix this, I see several solutions : - use eth1 everywhere instead of eth0 (not easy if you do not know what to modify exactly. /etc/network/interfaces would be one of such places) - remove /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules (at least the line with the wrong eth0 AND the line with eth1 if it has been created) => next boot udev will pick the first number (eth0) for the interface - wait a new image where /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules has been removed - modify your configuration so that the interface gets the MAC address written in /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules for eth0

Try 'dmesg | grep eth' and see if any network devices are present.

Looks good, but I would change: Kyle Hall maintains VMWARE Virtual Machines for Koha, you can download them from: to: Kyle Hall maintains Koha Virtual Appliances for VMWare, VirtualBox and others.

Hey all,  I have finished uploading a new set of Koha virtual appliances. Each version is available in VirtualBox or VMWare formats, and in configured and unconfigured states. At the moment, there are versions for the 3.01 official release, and versions for 3.01.00.032, which was the latest from git.koha.org at the time it was created.

We have downloaded the Koha 3. VMware release image, and we need two user names and passwords: one to log in to the Linux OS and the other to administrate from the web management side of the KOHA.

Check the directory into which you extracted the image - I believe there's a README file that contains the passwords.
