Please reinstall the kernel module vboxdrv does not exist by executing '/etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup' as root. If it is available in your distribution, you should install the DKMS package first. This package keeps track of Linux kernel changes and recompiles the vboxdrv kernel module if necessary. So I did the obvious, running the Vboxdrv setup. I ran this command: sudo service vboxdrv setup I got an error while doing so.: stopping kernel drivers...done. Uninstalling old virtualbox dkms kernel modules/etc/init.d/voboxdrv: 302: /etc/init.d/vboxdrv: /usr/share/virtualbox/src/vboxhost/do_dkms: not found ...done. (Failed, trying without DKMS) recompiling VirtualBox kernel modules...failed! (look at /var/log/vbox-install.log to find out what went wrong.) So, I took a look at /var/log/vbox-install.log to see if I can find anything. I got this error: /etc/init.d/vboxdrv: 334: /etc/init.d/vboxdrv: /usr/share/virtualbox/src/vboxhost/build_in_tmp: not found Any help?

Looks like DKMS is not working as it should(?). After reinstalling virtualbox-dkms, my VMs are back up. sudo apt-get --reinstall install virtualbox-dkms

When setting up Virtual Box http://askubuntu.com/questions/506405/how-do-i-fix-a-vboxdrv-setup-failure-in-virtualbox I was faced with the immortal error telling me to run sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup. Simple enough, until you're told it doesn't exist. Thus began my fight to get it working. The fix is here in the hope that it helps someone else. To follow this guide you need to have a basic understanding of shell commands. If you don't, then just be careful. First off I like aptitute https://gist.github.com/PartTimeLegend/5328700 so let's install it. sudo apt-get install aptitude Now update. sudo aptitude update And upgrade. sudo aptitude upgrade Now remove Virtual Box. sudo aptitude remove virtualbox Install Virtual Box. sudo aptitude install virtualbox Install generic headers. sudo aptitude install linux-headers-3.5.0-17-generic Remove dkms. It's bugged at this point. sudo aptitude remove virtualbox-dkms Install dkms and it will build. Why does it not do this originally? Who knows? sudo aptitude install virtualbox-dkms Now start it. This is where we see the fix for the not found. It's a different file name! sudo /etc/init.d/virtualbox start Add your user to the vboxuser group so you can access USB devices. sudo usermod -aG vboxuser youruser Finally a reboot. sudo reboot There you go all setup and working. TL;DR Save and close everything and run this. sudo apt-get install aptitude && sudo aptitude update && sudo aptitude upgrade && sudo aptitude remove virtualbox && sudo aptitude install virtualbox && sudo aptitude install linux-headers-3.5.0-17-generic && sudo aptitude remove virtualbox-dkms && sudo aptitude install virtualbox-dkms && sudo /etc/init.d/virtualbox start && sudo usermod -aG vboxuser youruser && sudo reboot TheGroundZero commented Sep 3, 2015 Shouldn't the user group be vboxusers instead of vboxuser (note the plural) ?
