I didn't use VirtualBox for about 2 weeks and when I came to use it today, any VM I tried to launch failed with an error similar to the following:
After trying a number of things including disabling USB and disabling / enabling audio, I decided to reinstall.The virtual machine 'Centos' 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've done a reinstall as follows:
[*]Delete all VMs in UI (select remove files)
[*]Download latest dmg (VirtualBox-5.1.26-117224-OSX.dmg)
[*]Run uninstall script
[*]Deleted ~/Library/Preferences/org.virtualbox.app.VirtualBox.plist, ~/Library/VirtualBox, ~/VirtualBox VMs
[*]Rebooted laptop
[*]Reinstall VirtualBox from dmg downloaded above
[*]Create new VM - manual creation, no image or import or anything similar
[*]Start the new VM
I later tried the same uninstall / reinstall process, but included the step to install the extension pack (Oracle_VM_VirtualBox_Extension_Pack-5.1.26-117224.vbox-extpack)
The error still happens.
My OS is 10.12.6 on a Macbook Pro 13" (Early 2015).
A log file is attached from a clean install showing it still happening.
If anyone has any ideas for how I can solve this, it would be greatly appreciated!
