Virtual box error

[gari2]

Hi,

I'm sorry to post this but I haven't found any solution to my problem.

I have installed VirtualBox on Ubuntu 14.04 and when I try to run Windows 7, this window appears.

Fallo al abrir una sesión para la máquina virtual Windows 7.

The virtual machine 'Windows 7' has terminated unexpectedly during startup with exit code 1.

Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)

The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. Please reinstall the kernel module by executing

'/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup'

as root. If it is available in your distribution, you should install the DKMS package first. This package keeps track of Linux kernel changes and recompiles the vboxdrv kernel module if necessary.



I've tried to do everything I read but I couldn't run it.

Thank you

did you run that command as root ?

sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup

What happened after you ran..

 sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup

When I run
sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup

This message appears:

sudo: /etc/init.d/vboxdrv: command not found

Hi!

Finally I could solve it. I had to install "aptitude", then I removed VirtualBox packages and I installed the one from the VirtualBox web.

Thank you!

No me funcionaba Virtualbox, arrancaba pero no podía ejecutar ninguna de las máquinas. La solución que encontré fue:
sudo apt-get install virtualbox-dkms
y después:
sudo modprobe vboxdrv

I did not work Virtualbox , but could not run tore none of the machines . The solution I found was :

sudo apt- get install virtualbox- dkms

and then:

sudo modprobe vboxdrv
