error creating network on Macos Big Sur

Post by xmel33 »

Hi all,

i have just installed the VirtualBox Version 6.1.28 r147628 (Qt5.6.3)

on Macos Big sur 11.6

When i go tot the network ( tools-networks), it's empty, if i tried to create a new one i got this message:
I got this error

VBoxNetAdpCtl: Error while adding new interface: failed to open /dev/vboxnetctl: No such file or directory.
Result Code:
NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005)
Component:
HostNetworkInterfaceWrap
Interface:
IHostNetworkInterface {455f8c45-44a0-a470-ba20-27890b96dba9}

How can i fix it?


i tried to installed a VM, and import another one.. but i can't reach them.

I saw that on my macos it doesn-t create any new Network interface..
