Debian Jessie - vboxdrv not starting automaticly [SOLVED]

Post by Lucas286 »

Hi,
I've used Debian Jessie stable (only kernel 4.1 from backports), VirtualBox from Oracle repo version 5.0.2. Generaly all works fine, but vboxdrv not starting automaticly during boot. I have to manually:

Code: Select all

sudo service vboxdrv start

Code: Select all

lukasz@hp:~$ sudo journalctl | grep vboxdrv

It isn't set.

Code: Select all

lukasz@hp:~$ sudo chkconfig --list | grep vbox
vboxautostart-service     0:off  1:off  2:on   3:on   4:on   5:on   6:off
vboxballoonctrl-service   0:off  1:off  2:on   3:on   4:on   5:on   6:off
vboxdrv                   0:off  1:off  2:off  3:off  4:off  5:off  6:off
vboxweb-service           0:off  1:off  2:on   3:on   4:on   5:on   6:off

Code: Select all

lukasz@hp:~$ sudo systemctl status vboxdrv
● vboxdrv.service - LSB: VirtualBox Linux kernel module
   Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/vboxdrv)
   Active: inactive (dead)
I trying enable, but failed.

Code: Select all

lukasz@hp:~$ sudo systemctl enable vboxdrv

OK, I resolved problem. It was conflict with old version VBox (4.3.18). It's nessesary remove old version with purge

Code: Select all

apt-get purge virtualbox
Now, it's possible to set vboxdrv start automaticly.
Thanks.
