[Solved] DEBIAN 9 - Guest additions

Post by ZAJDAN »

Hello,
I have a problem with installation Guest Additions for Debian 9 on host system Debian 8 with VirtualBox 4.3.36:

Code: Select all

root@boot-server:/home/supervisor# sh /media/cdrom/VBoxLinuxAdditions.run 
Verifying archive integrity... All good.
Uncompressing VirtualBox 4.3.36 Guest Additions for Linux............
VirtualBox Guest Additions installer
Removing installed version 4.3.36 of VirtualBox Guest Additions...
Copying additional installer modules ...
Installing additional modules ...
Removing existing VirtualBox non-DKMS kernel modules ...done.
Building the VirtualBox Guest Additions kernel modules
The headers for the current running kernel were not found. If the following
module compilation fails then this could be the reason.

Building the main Guest Additions module ...fail!
(Look at /var/log/vboxadd-install.log to find out what went wrong)
Doing non-kernel setup of the Guest Additions ...done.
Installing the Window System drivers
kernel-headers for running kernel I have installed

thank you for any hint

Regards Zajdan
