A little more information associated to the error
Dynamips Error Connection Lost
is that it indicates a sort of ghost file for the ios image file. can anyone help? The computer I am running is a AMD64 workstation running Windows XP Professional x64 Edition. Would 64-bit OS matter here? Top jpk Post subject: Re: error 209 unable to start VM instancePosted: Tue Jan 13, 2009 5:48 am I fixed the problem in the end by putting the image files in the pathprogram files\dynamips. Top zalas Post subject: Re: error 209 unable to start VM instancePosted: Tue Jan 13, 2009 6:46 am do you get the error for all your IOS's or for a specific IOS Top jpk Post subject: Re: error 209 unable to start VM instancePosted: Tue Jan 13, 2009 7:27 am i don't remember. i copied all my ios to that path & the problem was solved. I did it a few weeks ago and don't really remember when I got the error but I think I got it for all IOS and then when I copied all the ios there it went away Top tmkwork Post subject: Re: error 209 unable to start VM instancePosted: Fri Jan 29, 2010 10:02 pm I cannot seem to get GNS .7rc21 to work with windows 7 32bit. I recieve 209 error everytime I try to start a router. I have changed paths from D: to C:\program files\dynamips and chnged the path in the IOS preferances as directed in the previous posts with no help. No matter what IOS 2600 or 3660 I use I still recieve the 209-unable to start VM instance 'ghost-c3660-ik9s-mz.124-25b.bin.localhost.ghost'Any suggestions would be appricated.Thanks Tom K T

I have the latest version of GNS3 will all of the other software installed. I am able to get up and running router topologies ok, and I would like to add switches to the mix. I'm using a 3600 series router and then http://forum.gns3.net/topic182.html adding in the correct module to simulate a switch and I get all of the full features of CLI. The only issue is that when I go to start the router I keep getting the following error: error:209-unable to start VM instance. I did look thru the GNS3 forum and the root cause appears to be a Unicode error. I'm not to terribly familiar with Unicode so had to read http://www.techexams.net/forums/ccna-ccent/77477-gns3-issue-getting-error-209-unable-start-vm-instance.html up on it. Still not sure if I have a full understanding or not. I've tried to compare the setting I have with the 3700 routers that I have up and running Vs 3600 router and I'm not able to see any differences. Can anyone make any troubleshooting recommendations to see if I can get this fixed or not? thanks ***Freedom of Speech, Just Watch What You Say*** Example, Beware of CompTIA Certs (Deleted From Google Cached) "You have no idea how limitless you are when you are not afraid of what other people think of you or limits to your abilities" - Dan Pena Quote Login/register to remove this advertisement. fluk3d Senior Member Join Date Jan 2008 Posts 141 Certifications Too many to list here 05-13-201206:17 PM #2 GNS3 • View topic - 209-unable to start VM instance 'ghost--localhost.ghost' Quote mella060 Senior Member Join Date Jul 2009 Location Australia Posts 195 Certifications CCNA 05-14-201203:30 AM #3 Are you sure the path to the IOS or the name of the IOS is correct ? To make things simpler, i usually just create a folder called IOSImages under gns3 in c drive/program folders and put my IOS images in there. Then in gns3 under edit/IOS images hypervisors
