I am installing OVS v2.7.0 on Ubuntu 14.04 with kernel version 4.4.0-142-generic (you can check the compatibility here) from source.

git clone https://github.com/openvswitch/ovs
cd ovs
git checkout v2.7.0
./boot.sh
./configure --with-linux=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build --prefix=/home/john14/ovs-build
make
make install

The commands above work fine and without error; however, an error pops up when I do

make modules_install

Here's the output:

cd datapath/linux && make modules_install

I have visited some links about the problem(see here , and here ) but the solutions mentioned in those links either don't apply to my case(installing Open vSwitch) or simply don't work for me.

I appreciate your help if you can explain me some applicable method for installing modules. Thanks.

P.S. : I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 on virtualbox. I have seen some links (like this) about dkms problems that may cause my SSL Error but they didn't work, too.
