VirtualBox Ubuntu 14.04 - vboxclient the virtualbox kernel service is not running



I've installed VirtualBox (with Ubuntu 14.04 Desktop) and Guest Additions on my Windows 7 machine.



Every time it boots up I get the following error message which goes away:




vboxclient the virtualbox kernel service is not running. exiting.


How can I disable this message? I've tried the following:



I deleted /etc/xdg/autostart/vboxclient.desktop file.



But I am still seeing the message when logging in.



Any suggestions on how to fix this?




Try eject the VBOXADDITIONS cd image on ubuntu and "insert" it again from Vbox menu. I was just having this same problem and doing this fixed it.
