virtualbox interfaces not created in OS X Mavericks

[tvs]

I had running ok Virtualbox 4.2.x under Mountain Lion. After upgrading to Mavericks, I can't launch any virtual host, they gave me an error that vboxnet1 cannot be opened (I use two network interfaces in all my virtual hosts).

I've upgraded to version 4.3 and it worked but, every time I reboot the computer, I can no longer launch the virtual hosts, I have the same error with vboxnet1.

The only workaround I found is to reinstall Virtualbox, but it's insane to have to reinstall the package every time I need to use virtualbox.

(Using vagrant)

There was an error while executing `VBoxManage`, a CLI used by Vagrant
for controlling VirtualBox. The command and stderr is shown below.

Command: ["hostonlyif", "create"]
Stderr: 0%...
Progress state: NS_ERROR_FAILURE
VBoxManage: error: Failed to create the host-only adapter
VBoxManage: error: VBoxNetAdpCtl: Error while adding new interface: failed to open /dev/vboxnetctl: No such file or directory
VBoxManage: error: Details: code NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005), component HostNetworkInterface, interface IHostNetworkInterface
VBoxManage: error: Context: "int handleCreate(HandlerArg*, int, int*)" at line 66 of file VBoxManageHostonly.cpp

• Virtualbox 4.3
• Vagrant 1.3.5
• Mac OSX 10.9 Mavericks

Reinstall fixes issue but reboot breaks it again.

Duplicate of #8940. Please uninstall + re-install VBox 4.3.0 to solve your problem.

[tvs]

Ok, I've followed the suggestion of the comment above (uninstall and reinstall VBox 4.3.0) and now I don't need to reinstall to make it work, but now, every time I started VirtualBox, I can't shutdown the computer ... it keeps shutting down forever, I had to hard reset the computer (holding the power button for more than 5 secs)

[tvs]

I've reopened this ticket because there's a new issue with the proposed workaround ... please let me know if I should post this in #8940 instead of keeping this ticket open. Thanks!

tvs, please open another ticket for your problem. To me it looks like some application is preventing your host computer to shut down.
