Error mounting owncloud

When trying to mount owncloud on Ubuntu 16.04, I get the following error after hitting: mount ~/owncloud:

/sbin/mount.davfs: loading kernel module fuse
modprobe: ERROR: ../libkmod/libkmod.c:514 lookup_builtin_file() could not open builtin file '/lib/modules/2.6.32-042stab123.3/modules.builtin.bin'
modprobe: FATAL: Module fuse not found in directory /lib/modules/2.6.32-042stab123.3
/sbin/mount.davfs: loading kernel module fuse failed
/sbin/mount.davfs: waiting for /dev/fuse to be created
/sbin/mount.davfs: can't open fuse device
/sbin/mount.davfs: trying coda kernel file system
/sbin/mount.davfs: no free coda device to mount

Does someone know how to solve this?

To me this looks like an issue in the system setup - not related to ownCloud.

Did you google for this message? Maybe some kernel module is missing ....

Yes, you are right, it is related with some kernel module missing. I have googled this several times in different ways and so far I haven't been able to find the solution. Thank you.
