VirtualBox on Mac is not loading login page

Post by Meghana »

Until yesterday, virtual box was able to load the vdi properly. Today its just blinking infinitely instead of loading login page. Tried to create one more profile with same .vdi file, but latest changes are not included in it (showing contents older than 6 months). Any help is appreciated!

The latter is a consequence of using snapshots, which you should really stop using if you want to mess with VirtualBox that way.

As to the original error, we'll need a VM to see what's going on: with the VM fully shut down, right click it in GUI. Select "Show Log" and save "VBox.log" (ONLY) to a zip file. Attach the zip here.

Note that it's the original VM I need a log for, not the red herring snapshots chain broken second one.
