"minikube start" fails with E0908 on MacOS Sierra running on MacBook 12" 2017 #1931

Have you installed either virtualbox or the docker-machine-driver-xhyve? https://github.com/kubernetes/minikube/blob/master/docs/drivers.md |
Yes, I've installed the docker-machine-driver-xhyve using brew according to this instructions: https://github.com/zchee/docker-machine-driver-xhyve#install
|
It turns out you need to install Virtualbox as well: |
You don't actually need virtualbox if you're using the xhyve driver. Most likely, you have an incomplete uninstall of virtualbox, leaving the VboxManage binary. See machine-drivers/docker-machine-driver-xhyve#134 (comment) |
Interesting, that might be the case as I've copied over the whole |
Yeah, the original issue (which I'll try to track down) was that xhyve would panic if <= virtualbox 5 was installed. So there was a check added to the xhyve driver to see the version of virtualbox before starting https://github.com/zchee/docker-machine-driver-xhyve/blob/master/xhyve/xhyve.go#L398-L425 However, if the binary is present, but it can't check the version for some reason - kernel modules are loaded, or the installation is incomplete - the command will exit with a non-zero exit code, so starting xhyve will fail prematurely, since it can't determine the version of virtualbox. I think there have been some discussions about changing this or not making the check fatal. |
