Segmentation Fault on Load Function

edit

I am trying to run the Hello World Plugin Tutorial from the Gazebo Website.

After following all the steps and executing gzserver ~/gazebo_plugin_tutorial/hello.world --verbose the "Hello World" Message from the Constructor ist posted, but after that noting happens.

Debugging the Plugin / Gzserver with gdb and Debugging Symbols activated yields the following output: https://pastebin.com/QV0PdFQJ

With the backtrace:

My code is exactly as specified in the tutorial, with the exception of the Makefile where the Debug Symbols are added.

gazebo -v yields version 7.8.1

cmake --version yields version 3.5.1

make -v yields GNU Make 4.1

lsb-release -a yields Ubuntu 16.04.3 LTS

roscore -v yields /rosdistro: kinetic and /rosversion: 1.12.7

What am I doing wrong? My only guess is that I am running Gazebo within VirtualBox and only have a Intel Core i7-4500U with Integrated Graphics (whereas Gazebo states it needs a dedicated NVIDA Card). But running Gazebo without plugins works just fine, so there needs to be a hint that I am missing.
