Editor to share with you how to deal with VirtualBox startup error messages, I believe that most people do not know much about it, so share this article for your reference, I hope you can learn a lot after reading this article, let's go to know it!

When I started minikube, I encountered the following error message:

Starting local Kubernetes v1.10.0 cluster...

Starting VM...

E1010 03:27:37.920050 4827 start.go:174] Error starting host: Error creating host: Error executing step: Running precreate checks.

We support Virtualbox starting with version 5. Your VirtualBox install is "WARNING: The vboxdrv kernel module is not loaded. Either there is no module available for the current kernel (3.10.0-862.11.6.el7.x86_64) or it failed to load. Please recompile the kernel module and install it by sudo / sbin/vboxconfig You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed. 5.2.18r124319". Please upgrade at https://www.virtualbox.org.

Retrying.

The core is this mistake:

The vboxdrv kernel module is not loaded.

Execute the command line:

Rcvboxdrv setup

Results:

Vboxdrv.sh: Stopping VirtualBox services.

Vboxdrv.sh: Starting VirtualBox services.

Vboxdrv.sh: Building VirtualBox kernel modules.

This system is currently not set up to build kernel modules.

Please install the gcc make perl packages from your distribution.

Please install the Linux kernel "header" files matching the current kernel

For adding new hardware support to the system.

The distribution packages containing the headers are probably:

Kernel-devel kernel-devel-3.10.0-862.11.6.el7.x86_64

Solution:

1. Install gcc make perl package as described in this article:

two。 Install the kernel header file. Reference:

3. Execute the command line:

Rcvboxdrv setup

Make sure you see the message:

Vboxdrv.sh: Building VirtualBox kernel modules.

The role of this vboxdrv, VirtualBox's help document is very clear:

In order to run other operating systems in virtual machines alongside your main operating system, VirtualBox needs to integrate very tightly into the system. To do this it installs a "driver" module called vboxdrv which does a lot of that work into the system kernel, which is the part of the operating system which controls your processor and physical hardware. Without this kernel module, you can still use the VirtualBox manager to configure virtual machines, but they will not start.

Let me briefly translate:

In order to run other types of operating systems as virtual machines in the host, VirtualBox needs to interact with the Kernel of the host operating system. The module that interacts with the host is called the vboxdrv driver, which is a part of the operating system and is responsible for controlling the CPU and other hardware resources of the operating system. Without the vboxdrv driver, we can still use VirtualBox manager to manage virtual machines, but we cannot start them on the host system.

Problem resolved after rcvboxdrv setup execution.
