Problems Installing Virtual Guest Services on Server 2k8 and Vista VMs

Is there any chance Integration Services partially installed before throwing the exception? Go to Programs and Features and see if it appears. If it does, try to uninstall it before attempting to install it again. I'm suggesting you do this completely within the child and Hyper-V. Because you are having unusual problems, I'd do everything from within the child or the Hyper-V manager to remove the variable of using SCVMM.

no dice :(

Still the same timeout issue.  It gets to "1.2 - Install VM components", sits there for about 10 minutes, then throws the error/warning.  Strange how I was able to get Server 2003 and XP installed without a hitch and it's Vista and Server 2008 giving me trouble.

Okay, I misunderstood part of your request.

Assumng your Hyper-V server is fully patched, do this:

1. start msconfig
2. go to the Boot tab
3. Click the Advanced options button.
4. Check the Detect HAL checkbox.
5. Click OK.
6. Click OK.
7. Reboot the vm.
8. Install Integration Services.

After installing Integration Services, make your templates.

I built the machines from scratch, so I know integration services are not there yet.  Plus, I get the warning every time I click inside the VM with my mouse saying that Virtual Guest Services needs to be installed.

Forget the fact that I am trying to built these into templates.  I just need to get Integration Services installed on them.

This is from the Virtual Machine Manager 2008 Help file:

Install Virtual Guest Services

Installs Virtual Guest Services such as Integration Components (Hyper-V) or Virtual Machine Additions (Virtual Server) on the virtual machine.


and also:

  • Virtual hard disk. You can use a generalized virtual hard disk from the library or create a virtual hard disk from an existing virtual machine. ... To simplify the generalization process, include Virtualization Guest Services (such as Virtual Machine Additions or Integration Components) in your template. ...


  • You installed Integration Services into the virtual machines before making them into templates. Virtual Guest Services are Integration Components, which is another name for Integration Services. Your install failed because they're already there.

    Error (13222) is what seems to come out of the stack trace on the failed job.  Another part of the failure is a warning:

    Warning (13210)
    Timeout occurred while waiting for VM integration services to be installed on virtual machine


    These are both machines started from a blank VHD.

    The 2 successful templates were initially created the same, from a blank VHD and I had no issues installing Integration services on them before I converted them to templates.

    I am using SCVMM 2008 (v2.0.3444.0).

    Edit: The event log on the guests doesn't give me much and the errors here are the ones I'm getting from the host.

    Do the logs provide any additional information?

    I haven't seen this error, but I have experienced problem installing Integration Services (that is ultimately what you are trying to install) at one time or another in every operating system you mentioned. Tell us more about your template virtual machines. Did you install Integration Services in them? If you didn't, can you succeed at this task? I ask because I'm trying to tell if attention should be paid to the virtual machines or to SCVMM. Are you using SCVMM 2008?

    I am creating templates for different windows environments and have been successful with 2k3 server and XP.  Server 2k8 and Vista are both throwing the same error when I try to install Virtual Guest Services from SCVMM:

    Error (13222)
    An internal error occurred while Virtual Guest Services were being installed on virtual machine

    Both are x64 releases.  Vista is "with SP1".  Both VMs are up-to-date with windows update and operational.

    Any help would be appreciated, I've been scouring the web for hours.

    If you are having issues where the VM has the intergration tools "installed" but won't actually detect a network port or give you mouse capture and when you re install them from the disc it tells you there is a previous installation and it will unpgrade/reapair, do the follwing:

     

    Open server manager.

    Select Device Manager.

    Uninstall the Virtual Machine Bus device under System Devices. It might show up with a yellow exclamation point.

    Run a hardware scan.

    Everything should install now.

     

    Good luck.

    I have a similar situation on Server 2008 R2 with Hyper-V. I have used Disk2VHD to convert a server 2003 R2 SP2 box to a VM. I can get the integration services installed (it shows under add/remove programs) but the mouse capture, network card and display drivers are not working. Im going nuts. I have tried to look for the HAL option in msconfig mentioned earlier in the thread but it is not present. I have managed to uninstall and reinstall the integration services with the same infuriating result. I am also hidered by a tiny window in which to work and no mouse. Any ideas for this one please? Thanks Colin.

    Guys,

    During my VMs installations I noticed that Windows 2008 R2 already have the integratons services support nativelly. VMM also detects it and shows as already having it.

    Hope this helps.

    This is because the Windows Server 2008 hosting Hyper-V does not have the Service Pack 2 installed.

    Install Service Pack 2 on the 2008 Machine and it will work

    I experienced the same problem with failed installation of Virtual Guest Services i SCVMM when migrating a Win Srv 2008 Std x86 from Virtual Server to Hyper-V. In Hyper-V Manager The Integration Services "Successfully installed", but problem with mouse pointer activation and missing network interface told me something else.

    This solved my case, but interestingly I didn't have to reinstall Integration Services. After reboot the mouse device and network interface was detected and installed automatically.

    Look for Hyper-V Guest Components in Programs. If you don't see it, then it didn't properly install.

    And the Hyper-V Guest Components never showed up in Programs...

    Hi All,

    Was getting the same issues. I found that the Integration Services were not under 'Programs' in Vista, but under 'Updates'. I had tried to install them too early in the process, and these failed. I have now removed this from Programs, reinstalled, and it works fine.

    It would seem that the best method to go through is:

    Setup VM with a Legacy Network Adapter.

    Install Vista

    Download ALL patches

    Install Integration Services

    You're now away and running...

    Best of luck...

    Hi,

    Seems you encountered the problem related to SCVMM.

    You may  get the most qualified pool of respondents  in the SCVMM forum.

    I am stuck with the same informative message;
    "An error has occurred: One of the update processes returned error code 1."

    w2008x64 fully patched on dell server

    I added fresh msdn retail vista x64 w/SP1,
    insert integration services vdisk, run setup and get the error.

    The last few entries in vmguestsetup.log are;
    AddKmdfToServiceGroupList
    AddGroupOrderConfigurationKey
    Command Line: "C:\Windows\system32\wusa.exe" D:\support\amd64\Windows6.0-KB950214-x64.msu /quiet /norestart
    WUSA exit code = 0x00000001
    Detected worker thread exit
    Worker thread error code = 20000006


    executing the above command line manually (without quiet switch) reveals a message "this update does not apply to your system"
    and that is as far as I can get.
    Integration Services remains uninstalled.

    My issues are still unresolved.. I've followed any and all advice I have found on the web with no luck.  My latest finding is an error in the Vista logs stating that my machine does not support mouse input...  It seems as though all guest services install correctly except for mouse support.  I haven't been able to spend much time chasing this, but have poked at it a little here and there.

    That's very interesting. When I've had trouble installing Integration Services, I've always set the virtual DVD drive to no media before finally getting Integration Services to install successfully. I'm interested in seeing feedback from others to help determine if this the unheralded magic.

    Hello everybody, i may be wrong, but i solved a similar problem after reading this "incorrect" post on another forum:

    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/exchangesvrmonitoring/thread/240cc5ae-339c-49cc-94bd-df789c34e917/

    I also obtained an Error 13233 installing Virtual Guest Services in VMM 2008, and what i did is to set the virtual CD/DVD drive to "No media" and finally could install everything without any problems.

    Hope this can help anybody with similar problems.

    Kind regards.
