Hmm, actually the compilation of the kernel modules succeeded. Could you do the following:

strace -f -s256 -o log yum install VirtualBox-5.0-5.0.2_102096_el6-1.x86_64.rpm

(or replace the yum command with the corresponding rpm command if you already downloaded the package).

I would be interested in the resuling log, please compress and attach it to this ticket.

Provision of information is sufficient for analysis?

when can we expect an answer?

I've downloaded the strace file, you can remove it.

According to the log file there seem to be a problem with the VBoxSVC daemon. What happens if you start /usr/lib/virtualbox/VBoxSVC manually? Please post the output.

Replying to sp3c73r_:

Provision of information is sufficient for analysis?

when can we expect an answer?

This support is best effort, therefore no ETA.

Release Logging

To enable logging for VBoxSVC in release mode (that is, running a non-debug build), the following variables can be used in order to activate logging of specific log groups / flags:

#export VBOXSVC_RELEASE_LOG=main.e.l.f+gui.e.l.f
#export VBOXSVC_RELEASE_LOG_FLAGS="time tid thread"
#export VBOXSVC_RELEASE_LOG_DEST=dir=/var/log/VBoxSVC

I analized https://www.virtualbox.org/attachment/ticket/14543/VBoxSVC.log

Trouble in not started /etc/init.d/messagebus

After starting

#/etc/init.d/messagebus start

VirtualBox 5.0.2 working)))

Solved trouble:

#chkconfig messagebus on

TODO!!! for Developer VirtualBox-5.0: Add dependence dbus packages and chkconfig messagebus on

comment:14 by Frank Mehnert, 10 years ago

Actually we will not add a dependency but there will be a fix for handling systems without DBus running.

comment:15 by Frank Mehnert, 10 years ago

Resolution: fixed
Status: newclosed

Fix is part of VBox 5.0.4.
