Failed to open/create the internal network (VERR_INTNET_FLT_IF_NOT_FOUND)

Error Message :

VBoxManage: error: Failed to open/create the internal network ‘HostInterfaceNetworking-Atheros AR8151 PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet Controller’ (you might need to modprobe vboxnetflt to make it accessible) (VERR_INTNET_FLT_IF_NOT_FOUND).

VBoxManage: error: Failed to attach the network LUN (VERR_INTNET_FLT_IF_NOT_FOUND).

VBoxManage: error: Unknown error creating VM (VERR_INTNET_FLT_IF_NOT_FOUND)

VBoxManage: error: Details: code NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0×80004005), component Console, interface IConsole, callee

Solution :

First, you need to check the Virtual Machine Information by run this script :

#VBoxManage showvminfo VM_name

You’ll get description about your VM. Let’s focused on the information about NIC (Network Interface Controller).

Then, try to run this script below to know

# dmesg | grep eth0

Then, reassign the interfaces (NIC) :

#VBoxManage modifyvm VM_name –bridgeadapter1 eth0

#VBoxManage showvminfo VM_name

#VBoxManage startvm VM_name –type headless

It works for me !!!! Good luck
