Genymotion virtual device got no IP adress

Question

when I try to run HTC Evo 4.3 (or other devices, it doesn't matter) in Genymotion (2.3.0 x64) (with VirtualBox 4.3.10) on Ubuntu 14.04, I get:

The virtual device got no IP address. The VirtualBox DHCP server has not assigned an IP address to the virtual device.

My settings in Virtual Box are the following:

How can I assign an IP address to the device?

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!

Answer 1

The responsible thing that is assigning dynamic IPs for you is called DHCP server so you have to enable it to resolve this issue.

Try the following:

Open VirtualBox's Preferences and under Network section, check the adapter named "vboxnet0" in "Host-Only Networks", double click on it and make sure to apply the following configuration there.

6- Double click on that name and apple the following configuration

Adapter Tab:

• IPv4 Adapter: 192.168.65.1

• IPV4 Network Mask: 255.255.255.0

DHCP Server Tab:

• Check "Enable Server"

  HINT: THIS RESOLVES YOUR PROBLEM, BUT OTHERS IS REQUIRED TO AVOID OTHER PROBLEMS

• Server Address: 192.168.65.100

• Server Mask: 255.255.255.0

• Lower Address Bound: 192.168.65.101

• Higher Address Bound: 192.168.65.255

Note: make sure you don't have any other adapter with the same configuration that might cause conflicts .. revise all of adapters in that section, "Host-Only Networks" I mean, and delete the same ones there.

Good luck

I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 and I got the same error. I reduced the memory below 50% of the total memory. And now it works.

Answer 3

I had the same issue. I was normally using my laptop connected to LAN. When I was using the Laptop without LAN(cable disconnected) this error came.

After un-ticking "Cabale Connected" check box in "Network -> Adapter 1", VM stared without any issue.
