[Solved] Error trying to install VBoxLinuxAdditions in Centos 7

Post by Moygdl »

I hope you can help me.

Hello I have a VM running with Centos 7:

Code: Select all

[root@IBCentos centos7]# cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS Linux release 7.6.1810 (Core) 
[root@IBCentos centos7]# uname -r
3.10.0-957.1.3.el7.x86_64
[root@IBCentos centos7]#
and when I tried to install the guest additions I got the following error:

Code: Select all

root@IBCentos centos7]# ./VBoxLinuxAdditions.run
Verifying archive integrity... All good.

Re: Error trying to install VBoxLinuxAdditions in Centos 7

Post by andyp73 »

There has been some fixes applied for building the Linux guest additions over the last couple of releases of VirtualBox. Can you upgrade to v5.2.26 or v6.0.4 (the current as of writing) and see if that improves the situation?

-Andy.
My crystal ball is currently broken. If you want assistance you are going to have to give me all of the necessary information.
Please don't ask me to do your homework for you, I have more than enough of my own things to do.

And after you've been updating VBox, make sure you have and keep a copy of the previous kernel (3.10.0-862.14.4, that is) in your grub list. Boot into that one before rebuilding the GAs, or you'll get bitten by the Mouse driver problem described in viewtopic.php?f=3&t=90267
