PS: I know this question was made a long time ago when this was not an option, but I'm writing this answer to help people that came here through Google in 2018+. On Ubuntu 17.04+: sudo apt install virtualbox-ext-pack This was on Debian Jessie, but I am quite confident it would work the same on almost any flavor of Linux, possibly Unix too. VBoxManage extpack install -replace Oracle*.vbox-extpack Delete/rename the uninst folder and retry. Wget -q -N "$VBOXVERSION/Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-$VBOXVERSION.vbox-extpack" You may have an 'OracleVMVirtualBo圎xtensionPack - uninst' directory present in which case the installer cannot rename the existing 'OracleVMVirtualBo圎xtensionPack' to it. I did the following which is a variation on what that package does in a script I am using: VBOXVERSION=$(VBoxManage -version | sed -r 's/()\.()\.().*/\1.\2.\3/') I looked at the source of the virtualbox-ext-pack package in Ubuntu and I found some gems. This assumes virtualbox is already installed. Click Import to open the Appliance Settings screen. From the file dialog, go to the file with either the. Select File, Import Appliance from the VirtualBox Manager window. To ease installing of extension packs to Virtual Box versions provided by the repositories we maintain a download helper script in the multiverse repository from Ubuntu >= 15.10 which will download the extension pack from Oracle ( virtualbox-ext-pack).ĭo not install this for Virtual Box versions you had downloaded and installed from other sources. Oracle VM VirtualBox creates file type associations automatically for any OVF and OVA files on your host OS. Thanks in advance to any suggestions taifun89344 Posts: 1 Joined: 4.Because the Virtual Box extension pack is closed source proprietary software we will not be able to provide debian packages or binaries from the Ubuntu repositories. Has anybody an idea what is causing his problem? I have done this type of change already several times and never had problems yet. It still runs now but without use of the extension pack. The extension pack is the correct and matching version. Virtualbox version was first 4.2.10 (on Mint 13) and now 4.2.12 (Ubuntu) This happened after changing from Linux Mint 13 to Ubuntu 13.04 (both were and still running with Gnome Shell 3, not Unity or Cinnamon or Mate or KDE or whatever.) I have got the absolute same failure message.ĭas Zusatzpaket /home/./Downloads/Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-4.2.12-84980.vbox-extpack konnte nicht installiert werden.
