Error while executing "VBoxManage" on vagrant up #8687
Comments
My VirtualBox is 5.1.20r114628 |
Hi there, This is generally caused by a failure to allocate resources on the host machine required by the defined guest. You can inspect the VirtualBox logs to find more information which should help resolve your issue. The following link can help you determine where your log files may be: https://blogs.oracle.com/fatbloke/virtualbox-log-files Cheers! |
I was able to resolve the problem by purging any old Virtualbox and reinstalling it. Also I got vagrant 1.8.5 from 1.8.6. I don't think the vagrant version was a problem, it was basically due to VBox |
For anyone who finds this issue in the future - sometimes this is caused by the virtualbox kernel modules loaded not matching the virtualbox client/UI version installed. For example, if after upgrading virtualbox you forget to run "vboxreload" (or to reboot), then you'd be using the same vboxdrv.ko, etc. as the previous version prior to the upgrade. Some package managers don't reload modules properly. If this happens to you, try "vboxreload", or reloading the vboxdrv, vboxpci, vbox* kernel modules directly if you can't find the vboxreload script (i.e.: modprobe -r vboxwhatever; modprobe vboxwhatever). |
For me "vboxreload" is actually |
I had the same issue on my Ubuntu. Looked like I had multiple versions of VirtualBox. No idea how. So I checked all the packages using Then removed everything by Also deleted VirtualBox VMs folder by Then installed the latest version of VirtualBox (5.2 in my case) by doing the process mentioned here. |
I got this error after upgrading from Virtualbox 5.1 to 5.2, as installed on Ubuntu from the Virtualbox PPA. I solved it by purging config files for 5.1 as well as uninstalling virtualbox-dkms 5.1:
|
For me, the solution came from this answer:

I encountered this error on a Windows 10 host and am currently lost on any resolution. Windows 10 x64 Does anyone have any ideas? |
If you're running on windows try the following, from VirtualBox forum post Go to C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\drivers\vboxdrv directory, right click on VBoxDrv.inf and select Install. Go to console and enter 'sc start vboxdrv'. Then try 'vagrant up'. Worked for me issue. |
I am still facing the problem while making the vagrant up on windows 10. I have tried vagrant version 1.7.2 with VM 4.3.12 also with vagrant 2.0.2 with VM 5.1.2/5.2.6/5.2.12... none of the combinations work.. Any help will be highly appreciable. Getting the below error : There was an error while executing Command: ["startvm", "4418f31e-9a9a-40e5-abe3-a61327193024", "--type", "headless"] Stderr: VBoxManage.exe: error: The virtual machine 'dev-image_xdevimg_1526537235269_3388' has terminated unexpectedly during startup with exit code 1 (0x1). More details may be available in 'C:\Users\sinbmm\VirtualBox VMs\dev-image_xdevimg_XXXXXXXX\Logs\VBoxHardening.log' |
Got this error consistently when I set VirtualBox to use the root of a drive to store VMs in. When I set my default machine folder to be a subfolder somewhere, it worked. It's 2018 and we still have errors like this. |
@shukriadams this is likely a permissions issue, drive roots being protected. You will likely need to update permissions for the drive root location or stick to using a subdirectory. |
This error just started out of the blue for me. I've not had any updates other than Windows 10. Nothing else has been touched, then boom - error. Can't fix. Turns out IBM's Rapport software that I installed caused the issue. Any idea how to fix other than uninstalling? |
After uninstalling IBM Trusteer Rapport software, things were back to normal on Windows 10 as the host. |
On Windows 10, I installed everything as ADMINISTRATOR and only the following configuration worked for me: Vagrant 1.9.2 : Download Vagrant 1.9.2 Oracle VM VirtualBox 5.1.30 : Download Oracle VM VirtualBox 5.1.30 For older versions of VirtualBox, the virtual machine has terminated unexpectedly. When you upgrade or downgrade, make sure that you permanently delete (Shift + Delete) the following folders from C:\Users\your-user : .vagrant, .VirtualBox and Virtual VM Machines. When using After each program install and uninstall, make sure to restart your computer. Old files from VirtualMachine and Vagrant are persistent until the OS boots up again. |
I got the same error in Mac OS High Sierra 10.13.6 with following installed:
I resolved it by opening System Preferences -> Security & Privacy and Click on Lock to Make Changes That'll make all the programs to run without user authorization required for performing operations. |
How to do that? |
This happens because macOS by default blocks any change to system performed by third-party apps (Vagrant for example). And, those request from third-party apps is listed on the mentioned screen when the lock is not opened, below "Allow apps downloaded from" section. That's why you need to unlock macOS to enable changes made by third-party apps. |
Also got this issue.

I'm getting a similar error
|
Simple fix for macOS, open VirtualBox Manager GUI, select the problem VM and choose the option "Discard" to delete the saved state. Worked for my issue, found the solution by opening VirtualBox logs (ctrl click VM-> show logs), which had more verbose error message:
|
I followed the procedure specified by @ritwikjamuar .It worked for me for the following system specifications. Thank you! |
If you updated system to macOS Mojave and it shows this error:
this works for me, I got this error after macOS update |
|
Resolved after following this https://medium.com/@Aenon/mac-virtualbox-kernel-driver-error-df39e7e10cd8. |
You probably have virtualization disabled in your bios. To enable virtualisation follow the guide here for different laptop types/makes. |
This worked for me |
It worked. Allowing the third party applications to make changes to the system worked. |
Thanks, worked for me! |
I am facing the same issue on Ubuntu 16.04. I tried everything above. I am using latest versions. |
I experienced this on MacOS 10.14.6 after I used Migration Assistant to migrate to a new Mac. Restarting VirtualBox's internal cache fixed the issue. I first discarded any saved state on the VM, then followed the instructions here. Additionally, I needed to update any files that were still referring to a different user account's UID from the previous Mac. I believe this was the /etc/exports file; make sure it only has entries referring to the new user account. |
Tried all mentioned "solutions", none worked (OS X Mojave). Still get an error at this step after
|
Actually this is a Virtualbox error, not Vagrant. Docker is fine, but it takes at least 1.5GB of RAM. Vagrant and Vbox about 650k |
@ritwikjamuar Thanks it worked for me. But for that, I have reinstalled the virtual machine then the message for allowing oracle came |
Mojave folks should check this out and reinstall virtualbox http://osxdaily.com/2018/12/31/install-run-virtualbox-macos-install-kernel-fails/ |
Worked for me!!! thanks totymedli |
