Hi,
the host is ubuntu 22.04 , and VM is Windwos server 2012 R2
when to start on any VM

Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)
The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver is either not loaded or not set up correctly. Please try setting it up again by executing
'/sbin/vboxconfig'
as root.
If your system has EFI Secure Boot enabled you may also need to sign the kernel modules (vboxdrv, vboxnetflt, vboxnetadp, vboxpci) before you can load them. Please see your Linux system's documentation for more information.
where: suplibOsInit what: 3 VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_INSTALLED (-1908) - The support driver is not installed. On linux, open returned ENOENT.

Possibly a mix of versions of Virtualbox. Purge Virtualbox completely from your host; the VMs will remain. Then decide if you want Linux Distro Virtualbox fork from their repository, or Official Virtualbox. We support Official here, and the distros support their forks on their repositories.

If you go with Official, there are prerequisites, see https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch02. ... nux-prereq

sudo /sbin/vboxconfig


There were problems setting up VirtualBox. To re-start the set-up process, run
/sbin/vboxconfig
as root. If your system is using EFI Secure Boot you may need to sign the
kernel modules (vboxdrv, vboxnetflt, vboxnetadp, vboxpci) before you can load
them. Please see your Linux system's documentation for more information.
