How to setup phpvirtualbox?

Question

PHP

I can’t set up phpvirtualbox in any way, all services are working, the site opens, but I can’t log in (I try admin / admin). I searched on the Internet, I did not find a solution.

/lib/systemd/system/vboxweb.service

***@ServerUbuntu:~$ cat /lib/systemd/system/vboxweb.service
[Unit]
Description=VirtualBox Web Service
After=network.target

[Service]
Type=forking
PIDFile=/run/vbox/vboxweb.pid
ExecStart=/usr/bin/vboxwebsrv --pidfile /run/vbox/vboxweb.pid --background
User=virtualbox
Group=vboxusers

[Install]

Service running and listening on port:

***@ServerUbuntu:~$ sudo netstat -tulpn |grep vbox
tcp6 0 0 ::1:18083 :::* LISTEN 23379/vboxwebsrv

Port 18083 open:

***@ServerUbuntu:~$ sudo ufw status |grep 18
18083/tcp ALLOW Anywhere
18083/tcp (v6) ALLOW Anywhere (v6)

Config.php is standard except for two lines:
var $username = 'virtualbox';
var $password = '***';

Answer 1

tcp6 0 0 ::1:18083 :::* LISTEN 23379/vboxwebsrv
ipv6 listening?

Answer 2

Found a solution to the problem.
1) Changed the /etc/default/virtualbox VBOXWEB_HOST file to the server IP
2) The same IP was registered in the /var/www/phpvirtualbox/config.php
file var $location = ' http://*.*.*.*: 18083/ ';
3) Deleted the file /lib/systemd/system/vboxweb.service , which I no longer need.
4) Because I use Supervisor , I made a config for it /etc/supervisor/conf.d/vboxweb.conf :
[program:vboxweb]
command=/usr/bin/vboxwebsrv -H Server IP
user=virtualbox (the user from which the virtualbox itself works, he must be in /etc/default/virtualbox)
process_name=%(program_name)s
numprocs=1
autostart=1
autorestart=1
redirect_stderr=true
5) Restarted Supervisor
As a result, everything works:
