Parallels Desktop will suspend virtual machines and quit no matter what action you choose to execute, e.g., Pause, Stop...

See http://www.alfredforum.com/topic/4080-vm-control/?p=36333

vm will list the existing VMs, e.g., windows 7, windows XP, then you continue typing
vm 7 will only give windows 7, and if you continue typing
vm 7 suspend will only give suspend action?

Just upgraded to 5.2 and typing vm doesn't seem to detect any of my VMs. Anyone else having this issue?

Error in debug log:

[2017-10-31 10:16:53][ERROR: input.scriptfilter] Code 1: Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "vm_list.py", line 11, in <module>
    vbox = mgr.vbox
AttributeError: 'VirtualBoxManager' object has no attribute 'vbox'

Not sure if this is an import error in python?

I get the following error when trying to start it:

Btw thank you for your great work, love this workflow!

I have some issues with the packal (1.3) version, and it turns out the git-version (1.4) works nicely 💃

Nothing happens :(

I installed VirtualBox 5.1.6 and is not working on that version. I'm getting this message

It would be great if you fix it!!

Have a nice day!

I'm getting this error in the debug log when I try to start a VM:

VBoxManage: command not found

OSX 10.11
Virtualbox 5.0.10

Hello,

Thanks for the workflow, added the following to my version of it, could be useful to others. Original script from Ben Harper.

Suspend script:
`/usr/local/bin/prlctl list -a --no-header --output name | while read line; do
VMName=$line
VMState=$(/usr/local/bin/prlctl list --no-header -a -o status "$VMName");

if [[ $VMState == running ]]
then
/usr/local/bin/prlctl pause "$VMName"
echo
fi
done`

Unsuspend script:
`/usr/local/bin/prlctl list -a --no-header --output name | while read line ; do # Pipe Parallels List of VM's to loop
VMName=$line # Get Name of VM
VMState=$(/usr/local/bin/prlctl list --no-header -a -o status "$VMName"); #Better Way - no piping text
echo
echo Found - $VMName, State = $VMState
echo

if [[ $VMState == paused ]] # If VM Paused
then
echo $VMName was running, pausing it
/usr/local/bin/prlctl resume "$VMName"
echo $VMName, State = $(/usr/local/bin/prlctl list --no-header -a -o status "$VMName");
echo
fi
done`
