Hi,
Suddenly my VirtualBox instance wouldn't start, the message being
VirtualBox: Effective UID is not root
I remembered seeing this years ago, where the culprit was that /usr/lib/ virtualbox/VirtualBox needed 4755 as permissions. The actual perms:
-rwxr-x--- 1 root vboxusers 158320 10 jan 00:34 VirtualBox
Did a 'chmod 4755' on it and now everything is back to normal. Anybody else seeing this? If so, I'll file a bugreport.
I've put my user in vboxusers group, as I found it more elegant ;-)
