I have installed virtualbox 4.3 (also version 5.x). There is no problem in installation. But When I run it via terminal. It gives following warning
WARNING: The vboxdrv kernel module is not loaded. Either there is no module
available for the current kernel (3.10.0-229.11.1.el7.x86_64) or it failed to
load. Please recompile the kernel module and install it by
sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed.
When virtual machine starts and I select a VM, It gives following error.
Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)
The VirtualBox Linux kernel driver (vboxdrv) is either not loaded or there is a permission problem with /dev/vboxdrv. Please reinstall the kernel module 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.
When I run follwoing commad
sudo /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup
This error appears

And according to above guide, I run dmesg command and it shows following results at tail.
