Oracle VM virtual box error - This kernel requiers x86-64 cpu but only detected an i686 cpu

OPS$ConnectOct 25 2015 — edited Oct 25 2015

Host os = Windows 7 ( I tried this on Ubuntu linux and also on Windows XP, Windows 8 - everywhere I get the same error )

Virtual box = Tried on version 5.08 , and 4.3.32 - Both the places I get the same error

File to be imported = OracleLinux65.ova  ( Downloaded from Oracle downloads )

Agenda - To import OracleLinux65.ova in Virtualbox. Succeeds.

I assume the import will create all necessary properties needed to run Oracle linux,

But when I start, I have the following error.

This kernel requiers x86-64 cpu but only detected an i686 cpu unable to boot please use a kernel appropriate for your cpu.

What changes should I do.

Please help.

Kind Regards,
