what result do you get if you run the command
defaults read /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.vmnet.plist Shared_Net_Address
[~]$ defaults read /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.vmnet.plist Shared_Net_Address
2016-10-30 11:14:21.094 defaults[47286:709452]
The domain/default pair of (/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.vmnet.plist, Shared_Net_Address) does not exist
that's interesting.. does that file exist? can you paste the contents here?
It does not exist
what version of OS X are you on? have you ever successfully used a previous version of dlite? or xhyve? docker for mac?
I'm on Sierra, a fresh install. I've used dlite before, but not on a fresh Sierra install.
Docker for Mac works
edit: I have also used dlite on a non-fresh sierra install. Maybe it's not a file present in Serria but just happened to be there because I upgraded?
it looks like the file may only exist if you've already run a vm that uses vmnet before, so this is kind of a chicken and egg problem. i'm probably going to add a fallback and assume a default so the init process can continue and if it turns out to be wrong i'll have to figure out a more robust solution
Is there a way I can cause the file to be created so I can use the prerelease?
sorry for the delay! i'll release another beta build today or tomorrow that doesn't need the file to exist. i added a fallback so it will use a default
I'm running also into this issue on 2.0.0-beta8 (same output on defaults read /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.vmnet.plist Shared_Net_Address
) - is there any way to get past this error yet without building from sources? or could you release another beta build please?
just released 2.0.0-beta9 that has a fallback in place for this issue
