So, you are able to install without issues but it doesn't start?

Weird, should be ipv4 address.

1) Which Linux VM is it?

2) In your Linux VM, can you go to the browser and access
127.0.0.1:9843/ ?

I just tried in Fedora 28 VM and test (2) above worked while
Nautilus gave me an error "HTTP Error: Error resolving
"linux.local": Name or service not known"

Also got an abort from gvfs :(

So, something changed in Linux guests.

Tested here on a fresh windows 7 box. For some reason it didn't
worked out of box either, I had to go to task manager, shutdown
the process and start it over; After I did that, when I enabled
shared-folder option in remote-viewer, Windows 7 mounted my
'Public' shared folder in the guest as Z:

I also verify that I can access the shared folder in the browser
with http://127.0.0.1:9843/

Cheers,
