Replying to Paul5:

I would like help on how to fix these errors.

For help and discussion, you go to the VirtualBox forums not the Bugtracker. And in your case specifically to the VirtualBox on Mac OS X Hosts section of the forums.

In there you will find a thread titled: "Installation fails on 10.13.x, 10.14.x (rc=-1908)", have a look at it, it already contains the solution to your problem.

This ticket can be closed as [Invalid].

Great @Paul5!

Just remember that, it's usually better and faster, if issues get first addressed in the VirtualBox forums, a lot more eyes there. More than 95% of the issues are resolved over there, which keeps the developers focusing on the bug fixes and enhancements, and there is no need for another ticket to keep track of.

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
