signal-event reboot
  3. Check your current kernel.
    4. uname -r
  4. Install kernel-devel to get the latest development tree (2.6.18-238.12.1.el5PAE-i686).
    5. Use this command only if you have PAE kernel installed:
    yum install kernel-PAE-devel
          Otherwise,

    yum install kernel-devel


  5. Create a symbolic link
    6. ln –s /usr/src/kernels/2.6.18-238.12.1.el5PAE-i686 /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build

    or 

    ln –s /usr/src/kernels/’uname  –r’-i686 /lib/modules/`uname -r`/build
  6. Install DKMS
    7. wget http://packages.sw.be/dkms/dkms-2.1.1.2-1.el5.rf.noarch.rpm<br/>
yum install  dkms-2.1.1.2-1.el5.rf.noarch.rpm
  7. Enable fopen on php.ini (line 65) located on /etc/
    8. allow_url_fopen = On
  8. Install VirtualBox v4.0 (At the time of writing, the latest version is v4.0.8).
    9. wget http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/4.0.8/VirtualBox-4.0-4.0.8_71778_rhel5-1.i386.rpm<br/>
yum install VirtualBox-4.0-4.0.8_71778_rhel5-1.i386.rpm -y

    Note: you will get an error message, which you can ignore.

  9. Setup VirtualBox as a service so it starts automatically after a reboot by copying the vboxwebsrv from rc5.d to rc7.d.
    10. cp /etc/rc5.d/S30vboxdrv /etc/rc7.d/.<br/>
cp /etc/rc5.d/S35vboxballoonctrl /etc/rc7.d/.<br/>
cp /etc/rc5.d/S35vboxweb-service /etc/rc7.d/.
  10. Create a vbox.cfg file on your /etc/vbox/. 
    nano /etc/vbox/vbox.cfg
          vbox.cfg should have this content.

    VBOXWEB_USER='root'<br/>
VBOXWEB_HOST=127.0.0.1<br/>
VBOXWEB_PORT=18083<br/>

    Note: Without the vbox.cfg, vbox services on your rc7.d folder will not start.

  11. Before we install phpVirtualBox, make sure you install SOAP first.
