Hi
I upgraded to VB 4.1.12-77245 from the 1.10 version.

(The guest additions install fine.)
'The installer failed with exit code 127. Error creating textual
authentication agent: Error opening current controlling terminal for the
process ('dev/tty) No such device or address'

notice the missing / in dev/tty?

Any ideas?

Hi
Root has to do it:

hh1:/ # VBoxManage extpack install
/home/lynnacer/Downloads/Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-4.1.12-77245.vbox-extpack
0%...10%...20%...30%...40%...50%...60%...70%...80%...90%...100%
Successfully installed "Oracle VM VirtualBox Extension Pack".

your $PWD is /, therefore dev/tty exists ;-)

Bye,
Berny
