Cant install, "could not connect to module process"

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install latest VirtualBox
  2. Import latest appliance Image
  3. start VM

Expected behaviour

I’d like to install.

Actual behaviour

After some loading i get the message “internal server error: could not connect to the module process”. I can click “ok” and nothing happens. I can reach the VM via a browser and get a login screen, but as far as i understand it, the password is set during installation, which does not start.

Server configuration

Operating system: Windows Server 2008 R2

ownCloud version: latest VirtualBox Appliance (DL 21.09.2018)

Updated from an older ownCloud or fresh install: fresh image

**Where did you install ownCloud from:**owncloud.org

Login as admin user into your ownCloud and access 
http://example.com/index.php/settings/integrity/failed 
paste the results into https://gist.github.com/ and puth the link here.
--> i cant login, i can not start the installation

edit: some more information … i searched for this error and someone wrote that switching to SCSI storage mmight help. Did change that in virtualbox, didnt change behaviour. The VM gets an ip, i can reach it via a browser.
I just installed a fresh VirtualBox and the latest appliance, which should work out-of-the-box …
I’d prefer having an appliance install for hyper-v, but i understood that hyper-v isnt supported anymore.

Anything i can try?

There is a easier way.

Download this.

This is an UCS server, there is an app store, in this app store you can easily install the ownCloud app.

The solutions is very simple. Go to UCS-OWNCLOUD VM “settings/display” and change VBox to VMSVGA. Save and start. After boot, the wizard appears.
I tested on Windows 10 64b + Vbox 6.1.12r +Univention-App-owncloud-virtualbox “production 10.3.1 2019/12/20”.
