Instructionsįirst, find out your numerical uid and gid by performing the following shell commands. However, it is important that the shared folder must exist on the Host OS or else the Guest OS will fail to boot. Shared folders are guaranteed to be mounted at boot time.Mounting shared folders to specific paths other than /media/sf_(share name).Instead of relying on Guest Additions, if you have sudo permissions, shared folders can be mounted at boot-time using fstab. Applications that require paths at boot will not be able to access the shared folder even after it is mounted - such as Docker. To attach the hosts shared folder to your Windows guest, open Windows Explorer and look for the folder in My Networking Place s, Entire Network, Oracle VM VirtualBox Shared Folders. Mounting does not happen at boot-time. In a Windows guest, shared folders are browseable and therefore visible in Windows Explorer.Shared folders will always mount in /media/sf_(share name) unless specified using through vbox drivers in the guest OS.
While using VirtualBox's Guest Additions to mount shared folders provides a seamless way to mount shared folders, there are also disadvantages. Does anyone know what permissions are missing? I hope I got the right forum for this.How to mount a VirtualBox shared folder when the Guest OS boots Problem Maybe it's using Pgamin3's account name (if there is one for it), or maybe PostgreSQL's account name (whatever that is). I can create and delete files and folders on this shared folder from inside Odoo's VM, so the shared folder is set up correctly for my user account there, but obviously Pgadmin3 is not using my account. I used Pgadmin3 (or 4?) to execute the sql to create the tablespace, but I get a permissions error. I would like to have my datastore on a virtual box shared folder which is a large hard drive.
It was an out-of-the-box all-in-one install using the deb file from Odoo which puts the PostgreSQL datastore inside my virtual disk. I run Ubuntu 16.04 host with Ubuntu 16.04 guest for Odoo.
I thought about using Pgadmin3 (or 4) to issue CREATE TABLESPACE sql to create a new datastore and specify location other than the default and then simply restore my existing database to the new datastore. I don't know if this belongs here or in a PostgreSQL forum somewhere, but this is related to my previous post of wanting to move my database to a different hardware.
