The error message is this.
Failed to open a session for the virtual machine Decapod.
The virtual machine 'Decapod' has terminated unexpectedly during startup with exit code 1 (0x1).
Result Code: NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component: MachineWrap
Interface: IMachine {b2547866-a0a1-4391-8b86-6952d82efaa0}
I tried to upgrade to the latest pre-release of VirtualBox thinking that support for 10.12.4 may be included. The installer fails at "Validating Packages". I found this in the Console logs.

Attached is a copy of the VBox.log from a VM that was last run in Sept 2016. When launching a VM today it apparently does not even get far enough to write a log, perhaps because the VBoxDrv KEXT is not running.
Thanks for any help!
