You're getting the standard error due to the TeamID (Oracle, VirtualBox) not being authorized to install any kext on your system. Read the article from Apple that's been linked more times than I care to count. Take the appropriate action.Oct 8 19:02:53 Andrews-MBP Installer[5244]: Running OS Build: Mac OS X 10.13.1 (17B25c)

sudo kextload -d '/Library/Application Support/VirtualBox/VBoxDrv.kext' '/Library/Application Support/VirtualBox/VBoxNetAdp.kext'Did you try rebooting the system? That would have the same effect.jbz wrote:The solution was to execute the last lines of the kext postflight script manually and with sudo

The installer does use sudo. That's why you're asked about your Admin password even if you are the Admin, otherwise you could just have dragged the application straight from the DMG, something similar to Firefox, Skype or any other program that doesn't need to install kernel extensions.jbz wrote:Not quite sure what happens, but to macOS security policy it seems to make a difference whether the kext is loaded by an Administrator user or by root (through sudo).

# system_profiler -detailLevel mini > system_profiler.txt; kextstat | grep -v com.apple >> system_profiler.txt; gzip system_profiler.txtThanks for that and good luck.dsp_sd wrote:Another failure data point for you. After reading the apple technote and this thread and the kernel driver thread (viewtopic.php?f=8&t=84092), it's quite clear this is an apple problem.
I submitted an apple ticket with problemID=44233424
