Hi,

Need help with this, while trying to do the following,

    # VBoxManage createvm --name "CentOS-5.4-i386" --register
    Sun VirtualBox Command Line Management Interface Version 3.1.6_OSE
    (C) 2005-2010 Sun Microsystems, Inc.
    All rights reserved.

    ERROR: failed to create a session object!
    ERROR: code NS_ERROR_FACTORY_NOT_REGISTERED (0x80040154) - Class not
registered (extended info not available)
    Most likely, the VirtualBox COM server is not running or failed to
start.
