[SOLVED] virutalbox module problems

Failed to open a session for the virtual machine arch.

Failed to open/create the internal network 'HostInterfaceNetworking-vboxnet0' (VERR_SUPDRV_COMPONENT_NOT_FOUND).

Failed to attach the network LUN (VERR_SUPDRV_COMPONENT_NOT_FOUND).

One of the kernel modules was not successfully loaded. Make sure that no kernel modules from an older version of VirtualBox exist. Then try to recompile and reload the kernel modules by executing '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup' as root (VERR_SUPDRV_COMPONENT_NOT_FOUND).

Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component: Console
Interface: IConsole {1968b7d3-e3bf-4ceb-99e0-cb7c913317bb}

and here is my rc.conf file >

#
# /etc/rc.conf - Main Configuration for Arch Linux
#
# See 'man 5 rc.conf' for more details
#

# LOCALIZATION
# ------------
HARDWARECLOCK="UTC"

# DAEMONS

DAEMONS=(syslog-ng network crond alsa dbus mpd)

MODULES=(autofs4 vboxdrv vboxnetadp)

the out put of lsmod | grep vbox :

vboxnetadp             19239   0
          vboxdrv                  194788   1  vboxnetadp

my main problem is host-only adapter not working and giving me errors. what to do ?

Re: [SOLVED] virutalbox module problems

First you need to fix your rc.conf.  You have two modules arrays, no hostname, no locale and I'm not sure if single network config is supposed to be in there any more either.

As for vbox problem, try loading vboxnetflt module.  I don't use vboxnetadp at all but all my VMs use bridged networking.

$ lsmod | grep vbox
vboxnetflt             17063  0 
vboxdrv              1792230  1 vboxnetflt

Re: [SOLVED] virutalbox module problems

I also had a problem installing the extention pack.  I think I ended up installing it through the command line, but I don't remember the details.
