Re: VBox Issue macos montery

Hello, Black007,
I get the same error message:
Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)
Make sure the kernel module has been loaded successfully.
where: suplibOsInit what: 3 VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_INSTALLED (-1908) - The support driver is not installed. On linux, open returned ENOENT.
Although the App "VirtualBox VM" is running nicely, I cannot start my virtual Windows machine.

My equipment: iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2017), macOS Monterey 12.0.1
The problem occurred when I upgraded macOS from Big Sur to Monterey.
The problem remained when I upgraded the VitualBox App from version 6.1.28 to 6.1.30.

By the way, I read the whole thread "Cannot start VirtualBox on macOS Monterey" which is now locked.
Obviously we'll have to wait for another version upgrade which gets the Kernel driver installed and loaded.

This is not a VirtualBox fault - it is a result of Apple's very poor mechanisms for authorising the loading of kernel modules and has been an issue since OS X 10.13

What has worked for many people is:
1. Open System Preferences -> Security & Privacy and unlock the General pane
2. Select Allow apps downloaded fron: App Store and identified developers. Do not close the Preferences window.
3. Open the VirtualBox installer image and ran the uninstall script.
4a. If your host is running macOS Catalina or earlier, clear the kernel extensions staging from the terminal with

Code: Select all

sudo kextcache --clear-staging
4b. If your host is running macOS Big Sur or later, clear the kernel extensions staging from the terminal with

Code: Select all

sudo kmutil clear-staging
5. Install VirtualBox again.
6. The System Preferences -> Security & Privacy -> General pane should show the "Allow" button for installing software from Oracle.
7. Reboot your system when prompted.

Dear granada29,
your recipe worked, I got my machine running. I'm deeply grateful.

Just one remark for other strugglers at the same front:
When conducting the process described, macOS requests a reboot after point 3; this must be done.
Another reboot is required later as point 7 explains (The installer warns that the reboot is necessary for installing the kernel drivers!)

Kernel driver not installed, and VirtualBox uninstall script blocked by OSX.

OSX 11.6.2 (Big Sur)
VirtualBox 6.1

I'm getting message "Kernel driver not installed" and the VM fails to open. Virtualbox had been running for a few days after installing Debian 11, but then died shortly after I installed the extension package.

I tried to remove and reinstall VirtualBox, but OSX returned a message that the uninstall script was blocked for security reasons.

I then tried the fix described in howtogeek 658047.

After dragging VirtualBox from Applications to Trash and deleting the virtual machines folder, reinstalling VirtualBox, and trying to create a new VM I got the same error, but in contrast to the cited article, no message or option appeared in Security and Privacy -> General permitting me to enable VirtualBox.

So my problem is probably complicated now by a botched uninstall.

I'm getting this problem

Kernel driver not installed (rc=-1908)

Make sure the kernel module has been loaded successfully.

where: suplibOsInit what: 3 VERR_VM_DRIVER_NOT_INSTALLED (-1908) - The support driver is not installed. On linux, open returned ENOENT.

following OS upgrade to macOS Monterey 12.5.1

I've followed granada29's instructions, but nothing has changed :(. Any further ideas?

I have also just encountered this issue this morning after upgrading from 6.1.36 to 6.1.38 a moment ago - upgrade of virtualbox is what seems to have borked it.
Absolute nightmare; half my dev environment is in there.
