OMV 4.1.25-1 and VirtualBox 4.1.1 install issues

  • I'm a new user and am having some odd issues.


    I installed OMV from scratch and then installed omvextrasorg 4.1.16 without issue. I then applied all of the updates via the Update Management interface.


    When I go to install VirtualBox though I get this:


    "WARNING: The character device /dev/vboxdrv does not exist.
    Please install the virtualbox-dkms package and the appropriate
    headers, most likely linux-headers-amd64.


    You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed."


    I tried to install both via SSH with apt-get install ... and they are both installed.


    I also get this error at the end of the install.


    "Do you agree to these license terms and conditions (y/n)?
    License accepted. For batch installaltion add
    --accept-license=56be48f923303c8cababb0bb4c478284b688ed23f16d775d729b89a2e8e5f9eb
    to the VBoxManage command line.

    I'm really wanting to use this over FreeNAS, however, I really need VirtualBox to work. As it stands when I try to create a new VM it just gets an Error Code 1 when it tries to start.


    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • I'm seeing this when trying to resolve the issue:


    Loading new virtualbox-5.2.24 DKMS files...
    Building for 4.19.0-0.bpo.4-amd64
    Module build for kernel 4.19.0-0.bpo.4-amd64 was skipped since the
    kernel headers for this kernel does not seem to be installed.
    root@OpenMediaVault:~# dpkg -s linux-headers-$(uname -r)

    Use dpkg --info (= dpkg-deb --info) to examine archive files,
    and dpkg --contents (= dpkg-deb --contents) to list their contents.

    E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'linux-headers-4.19.0-0.bpo.4-amd64'
    root@OpenMediaVault:~#



    I'm not a Linux guru so what (if anything) can I do to resolve this? It appears that the headers aren't installed and they aren't available?

  • Would this have anything to do with it?

    linux-image-amd64 is current a meta package for linux-image-4.19.0-0.bpo.6-amd64 and linux-image-4.19.0-0.bpo.6-amd64 has been pulled from the repo. Nothing we can do to fix this. You can switch to the proxmox kernel though.

    omv 7.0-32 sandworm | 64 bit | 6.5 proxmox kernel
