Im trying to setup oracle virtual manager setup

Im able to setup oracle virtual box manager and also able to launch centos template and login but when i run the command ifconfig, I dont see the ipaddress.Need assistance to get this sorted.

What do you see? I’m not sure which version of Centos you’ve installed, and I’m not sure if ifconfig or ip addr is what’s installed in that version. But I’d guess that one or both would be installed on a startup image.

I have installed Virtual box 7.1.4 . and if i enter the command ifconfig I see the below image:
image

it should display ipaddress but it doesnt.

Been a while since I played with the UI for Virtualbox, but IIRC there’s a networking tab in the configuration system; you probably want to set up “host only” networking to start with. This will allow the virtual to “see out”, which is enough for a lot of tasks.

Beyond that: it depends what you’re doing with the system. What do you intend to install on it?

I changed the setting as host only adapter and restarted VM and tried ifconfig, it still doesnt show ip address

i need help in getting this issue fixed.

You may need to go to a Virtualbox forum for this; the product is what it is :frowning:

An alternative is using vagrant along with it, since we have scripts for a variety of applications – setting up ansible, Kubernetes, and other things. I’m not sure why networking is not getting set up for you, and I don’t have much to suggest beyond that.
