I want to install VirtualBox 5.2 on Debian 8 (jessie) with kernel 3.16.6-042stab127.46. But something goes wrong in /sbin/vboxconfig/ and the configuration can not be completed.
This is message from it:



root@vps:~# /sbin/vboxconfig
vboxdrv.sh: Stopping VirtualBox services.
vboxdrv.sh: Starting VirtualBox services.
vboxdrv.sh: Building VirtualBox kernel modules.
This system is currently not set up to build kernel modules.
Please install the Linux kernel "header" files matching the current kernel
for adding new hardware support to the system.

There were problems setting up VirtualBox. To re-start the set-up process, run
/sbin/vboxconfig
as root.


I know, I have to update kernel headers but how? The standard solution for this is installing headers with uname -r variable, but that is not working for me and the headers package can not be found.
What is your solution?



Thanks, Adam.
