Ok, I've got Virtualization working. I reverted from:

alfresco-community-wcm-2.1.0dev

to:

alfresco-community-wcm-2.0.0

And it started working.

I don't have a good explanation why it works, but at least I can continue with the evaluation.

Aha! Mystery solved.

The start-up script provided for the virt server in 2.0.1 is incorrect.

Under the following line in virtual_alf.bat:

set CATALINA_HOME=%ALF_HOME%virtual-tomcat

Please add the following lines:

if not exist "%ALF_HOME%java" goto nojava
if "%PROGRAMHOME(X86)%" == "" set JAVA_HOME=%ALF_HOME%java

:nojava
rem Set any default JVM options
set JAVA_OPTS=-Xms128m -Xmx512m -Xss64k -server
rem The following options are only required for Sun JVMs prior to 1.5 update 8
set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% -XX:CompileCommand=exclude,org/apache/lucene/index/IndexReader$1,doBody -XX:CompileCommand=exclude,org/alfresco/repo/search/impl/lucene/index/IndexInfo$Merger,mergeIndexes -XX:CompileCommand=exclude,org/alfresco/repo/search/impl/lucene/index/IndexInfo$Merger,mergeDeletions

You can see an example of this in the alf_start.bat file.

Nothing wrong with the virt server. An install script error; we'll correct ASAP.
