Homebrew-cask: Virtual box install is broken for me

Created on 20 Oct 2017 · 9Comments · Source: Homebrew/homebrew-cask

Brew doctor is fine,
(This is preventing my desire of getting genymotion)
here is output of brew cask install virtualbox --force --verbose --debug

brew cask install virtualbox --force --verbose --debug                                                                                    ⏎

Solution for the original issue probably was:

==> Caveats
To install and/or use virtualbox you may need to enable their kernel extension in

  System Preferences → Security & Privacy → General

For more information refer to vendor documentation or the Apple Technical Note:

  https://developer.apple.com/library/content/technotes/tn2459/_index.html

Was output for me during the install process, missed it at first.

You haven't provided brew cask doctor (which was requested in the issue template) but I'm assuming that you are on 10.13.

See https://github.com/caskroom/homebrew-cask/issues/39369#issuecomment-334744335

[ ] I understand that if I ignore these instructions, my issue may be closed without review.

@commitay sorry, I thought saying Brew doctor is fine, was enough: thanks for answering, I got it working.

brew cask doctor                                                                                                                  ⏎

@fxfactorial how did you get it to work? I still can't install it even with the suggestions posted above...

driesvints on 23 Oct 2017

Link to stackoverflow issue: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46832838/virtualbox-install-failed-in-a-clean-osx-10-13

@commitay can this issue be re-opened?

driesvints on 23 Oct 2017

@driesvints That issue has nothing to do with Homebrew-Cask. You need to ask in the Virtualbox forums instead.

vitorgalvao on 23 Oct 2017

@vitorgalvao I'm actually referring to the issue above.

driesvints on 23 Oct 2017

@driesvints Either way (though that didn’t clarify which issue you were talking about; all of them are above).

This is not an HBC issue, it is an issue with VirtualBox and macOS.

vitorgalvao on 23 Oct 2017

Ok I'll try, thanks.
