VirtualBox, Vagrant & Laravel Homestead "vagrant up" error


I'm currently trying to switch back to Laravel Homestead after using Laragon for a while, after the release of Laravel 5.3. I've followed all of the steps on the guide in the docs, and watched several screencast tutorials but I get this error when running vagrant up:

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

Command: ["startvm", "977385f5-4aa5-4def-be66-1741ac9b560b", "--type", "headless"]

Stderr: VBoxManage.exe: error: The virtual machine 'homestead-7' has terminated unexpectedly during startup with exit code -1073741819 (0xc0000005). More details may be available in 'C:\Users\\VirtualBox VMs\homestead-7\Logs\VBoxHardening.log'

VBoxManage.exe: error: Details: code E_FAIL (0x80004005), component MachineWrap, interface IMachine

As it says in the error, here is my VBoxHardening.log

Also, I have tried reinstalling VirtualBox and that didn't fix it.

Any help really appreciated.


Solution

  • I know this post hasn't had any activity in months, but I just wanted to update it as I found out what was causing the problem a few months ago. It was actually MacType, a font smoother I was using. I uninstalled it, and it just worked, no problem at all.
