I have looked at the log files and they report an error 2
I can attach if needed.
virtualbox is running (I'm using phpvbox to interface but the network isn't etc.
Any ideas please?

did you follow all the steps in this page: https://wiki.contribs.org/Phpvirtualbox ?

[jameswilson]

Yes I have I also installed the kernel headers but thay are not listed on the wiki.

I have found this in the error logfile though

this is the bit that should of been in bold

echo "  ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid.";      \
   echo "         include/linux/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are missing.";   \
   echo "         Run 'make oldconfig && make prepare' on kernel src to fix it.";   

[jameswilson]

on trying that
make oldconfig completes but

make prepare

[root@borris 2.6.32-642.11.1.el6.x86_64]# make prepare
make[1]: Nothing to be done for `all'.

well, in your first post I read:

"Trying to register the VirtualBox kernel modules using DKMSError! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 2.6.32-642.6.2.el6.x86_64 (x86_64)"

but in your last post I see:

[root@borris 2.6.32-642.11.1.el6.x86_64]

so there's something wrong IMO

can you paste here the output of

Code: [Select]

rpm -qa | grep kernel
?

[jameswilson]

Inbetween posts I did a update.

I have sorted this

I was following the guide which was installing virtualbox v 5.0.6 and running into the above issue

I performed a yum upgrade but enabled the virtualbox repo this installed v 5.0.28 and the problem fixed itself. I assume its something in the 5.0.6 version of virtualbox

Thanks anyway
James
