VirtualBox: Ubuntu Server loads GUI for Login

kz flag

I have installed on a MacOS Virtual Box with some Ubuntu installations, some servers and Desktop releases. For Ubuntu Server 20:04 available since months ago, yesterday I executed the image as usual: it starts up in peace but suddenly happened the following:

Now loads a GUI login as follows:

enter image description here

wondered because it is a server instance. If I do the login it remains as follows:

enter image description here

In the keyboard if I use: fn + control + alt + F[1-6] I am able to change the tty and do the login

Questions

  • What did Virtualbox/Ubuntu do to show this situation?
  • How resolve this?

I had this situation after of the installation of Erlang and RabbitMQ - this situation happened for many Ubuntu server instances.

Solution

Execute:

sudo systemctl set-default multi-user.target

To see the current configuration execute:

systemctl get-default
mangohost

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
