Check bug report #12736 and see if the workaround fixes it. It did for me...
Do NOT send me Personal Messages (PMs) for troubleshooting, they are simply deleted.

  • Your log indicates that you named your VM "Mavericks" (which means 10.9) and you have selected the 10.6 64-bit as your client version.
  • You didn't test the workaround.
