Debian – Cannot start NFS: Not starting NFS kernel daemon: no support in current kernel

debiannfs

I installed NFS on a new Debian7 install. I did:

apt-get install nfs-kernel-server

add folder to share to /etc/exports: /home/share *(rw,sync,no_root_squash)

service nfs-kernel-server start

But after this I get this error:

[warn] Not starting NFS kernel daemon: no support in current kernel. ... (warning).

I googled for this, but didn't find the solution yet. Some say the check /proc/config.gz, but I haven't this file in /proc

Best Answer

Maybe the NFS module is not loaded. Try modprobe nfs and restart the nfs service.
