installation fails for vbox 6.0.8 on osx 10.14.5
Re: installation fails for vbox 6.0.8 on osx 10.14.5
Effective immediately the install of VirtualBox 6.0.8 and 5.2.30 should simply work on macOS 10.14.5. Tried running a VM as a quick sanity check and noticed no unusual behavior.
Re: installation fails for vbox 6.0.8 on osx 10.14.5
So if you install 6.0.6, then you see this when launching VirtualBox.
How's that?socratis wrote:Install 6.0.6. It works GREAT!!!

- See the message from klaus above yours and please try 6.0.8:

- The error message means that you successfully installed 6.0.6. What you're seeing is a usage error, not an installation error as is the title of the thread. Please open a new thread with that problem and an appropriate title, preferably after having tried 6.0.8.

So I installed 6.0.8 and I get the same message in my screenshot above.

Did you notice the part where I said:
So, please open a new thread. Because you're not starting VirtualBox normally, you're starting it from a different shortcut.socratis wrote:What you're seeing is a usage error, not an installation error as is the title of the thread.

Re: installation fails for vbox 6.0.8 on osx 10.14.5
Thanks... I now see that installing an old version did something weird with the shortcut, and if I launch the application itself, then this does not happen.
Works now - thanks!

Brew is not supported. Please try the official method. If not, talk to the Brew people...Morampudi wrote:Here is the output from brew
