Error trying to install VBOX GUEST ADDITION

Post by marcus_felipe_911 »

Hello everyone,
I'm trying to install the VBOX GUEST ADDITION on a Debia 9 distribution. However I get the following error.
OBS: I remember that I deleted something in the last section, so I do not know how to solve it.

/usr/sbin/vbox-uninstall-guest-additions: 9: /usr/sbin/vbox-uninstall-guest-additions: //opt/VBoxGuestAdditions-5.2.16/uninstall.sh: not found
Failed to remove existing installation. Aborting...

Your question seems to be about the guest OS, not the host OS, so clearly does not belong in the "Linux Hosts" forum. Moving the topic to "Linux Guests".

No need to apologise, but you do stand a better chance of finding relevant expertise if you post in the correct forum. Unfortunately I don't have that Linux expertise, so someone else will have to help you.
