I'm running VirtualBox 6.1.26 r145957 on Big Sur 11.5.2. I just recently wanted to use vboximg-mount to mount an image of a guest OS. When I run vboximg-mount I get the following error

vboximg-mount: error: Failed to load the fuse library, rc=VERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND.

I installed MacFuse from the VirtualBox install package. I also tried the package from the MacFuse website.

I have found some posts from users who have the same issue but none of their solutions have helped, which is basically just install the version that comes with VirtualBox.

When I searched my file-system for OSXFUSE I did not find a match so I am wondering if it's even installed.

1) How can I verify it's installed?
2) If it is installed what am I missing?

thanks,
Tyson

I can confirm the problem you have reported. The FUSE libraries *are* installed on my 11.5.2 machine. They are installed in /usr/local/lib

Code: Select all

bryan@number9 ~ % cd /usr/local/lib
bryan@number9 lib % ls -l |grep fus
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root   wheel  973488  6 Dec  2019 libosxfuse.2.dylib
lrwxr-xr-x   1 root   wheel      18 19 Aug 09:35 libosxfuse.dylib -> libosxfuse.2.dylib
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root   wheel     933  6 Dec  2019 libosxfuse.la
lrwxr-xr-x   1 root   wheel      18 19 Aug 09:35 libosxfuse_i64.2.dylib -> libosxfuse.2.dylib

I think this problem may warrant you filing a bug in the bugtracker.

And there is an existing entry in the bugtracker: https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/19963

I guess it is seen as a low priority issue as the ticket will have its first birthday soon.

I have the same problem. Any news?
