How to fix VM issue with minikube start ?

Question

I am a beginner to Kubernetes and starting off with a tutorial. I installed VM and expected to be able to start a cluster by using the command

minikube start

But I get the error:

Starting local Kubernetes v1.10.0 cluster...

Starting VM...

E0911 13:34:45.394430   41676 start.go:174] Error starting host: Error 

creating host: Error executing step: Creating VM.

: Error setting up host only network on machine start: The host-only 

adapter we just created is not visible. This is a well known 

VirtualBox bug. You might want to uninstall it and reinstall at least 

version 5.0.12 that is is supposed to fix this issue.

It says that it is a well known bug in Virtualbox but I installed its latest version. Any ideas?

Answer 1

I think your VM isnt installed properly , so first thing i would is reinstall the VM then

System Preferences -> Security & Privacy -> Allow -> Then allow the software corporation (in this case Oracle)

Restart

let me know if this worked
