5.1 - crash when opening Preferences on OS X

Post by chrstphrchvz »

EDIT: Using 5.1 RELEASE on OS X 10.11.5 (15F34). I had encountered this issue since 5.1 BETA 1. Another user issue has opened a ticket for this issue, so I will continue the discussion there: https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/15617

I tried opening Preferences so that I can upgrade the extension pack. But opening the Preferences dialog has only worked a few times; most often it crashes the VirtualBox Manager (any running VMs are unaffected).

I have not yet identified any conditions for when it crashes (e.g. if I can only open Preferences when all VMs are "powered off"). Based on the stack trace, I would guess it has something to do with the UI.

I have attached the crash log from console.app (original file extension was .crash)
