Bruce, what were Virtual Box and Extension pack versions you ran under Windows 10 and got this error?

BTW, it is possible for Virtual Box to fail network creation at first run - it happens since Virtualbox is installed under administrative account but scripts should be run without administrative privileges and Windows should ask for administrative action to confirm.

I got the similar error but I was able to fix the same for the above mentioned environment.

It is happening because somehow when the script is applying the changes to network interfaces for Adapter #1,#2 and #3, it is applied but Virtual box itself is talking some time to get it reflected and in mean while the validation process is getting failed and script is throwing following error message :

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
New Net Mask 255.255.255.0 does not match the applied one 15.0.0.0
New Net Mask 255.255.255.0 does not match the applied one 15.0.0.0
Looks like VirtualBox failed to apply settings for interface VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To fix this if you just put sleep for 2 second (just to make sure that changes are reflected when script is querying to virtual box) in following script function then it is going to solve the problem :

NOTE : You just need to copy paste the commands between the echo's mentioning before & after (you can remove echo but it is there just for debugging purpose)

1. Go into your virtual box script directory where launch.sh is present.
2. You will see another directory named as functions, go into the same directory
3. Open file network.sh in your editor.
4. Search function check_if_iface_settings_applied()
5. Add extra 4 lines as shown below :

check_if_iface_settings_applied() {
  name=$1
  ip=$2
  mask=$3
  echo "Verifying interface $name has IP $ip and mask $mask properly set."
  # Please leave 12 spaces in place - these are placed intentionally
  case "$(uname)" in
    CYGWIN*)
      OIFS=$IFS
      IFS=","
      ;;
    *)
      ;;
    esac
  local new_name=(`VBoxManage list hostonlyifs | egrep -A9 "Name: $name\$" | awk '/Name/ { $1 = ""; print substr($0, 2) }'`)
  case "$(uname)" in
    CYGWIN*)
      IFS=$OIFS
      ;;
    *)
      ;;
  esac
  local new_ip=(`VBoxManage list hostonlyifs | egrep -A9 "Name: $name\$" | awk '/IPAddress:/ {print $2}'`)
  local new_mask=(`VBoxManage list hostonlyifs | egrep -A9 "Name: $name\$" | awk '/NetworkMask:/ {print $2}'`)

  echo "******** before sleep mask extracted : $new_mask ***********"
  sleep 2
  local new_mask=(`VBoxManage list hostonlyifs | egrep -A9 "Name: $name\$" | awk '/NetworkMask:/ {print $2}'`)
  echo "******** after sleep mask extracted : $new_mask ***********"

  local new_dhcp=(`VBoxManage list hostonlyifs | egrep -A9 "Name: $name\$" | awk '/DHCP:/ {print $2}'`)
  # First verify if we checking correct interface
  if [[ "$name" != "$new_name" ]]; then
    echo "Checking $name but found settings for $new_name"
    return 1
  fi
  if [[ $ip != $new_ip ]]; then
    echo "New IP address $ip does not match the applied one $new_ip"
    return 1
  fi
  if [[ $mask != $new_mask ]]; then
    echo "New Net Mask $mask does not match the applied one $new_mask"
    return 1
  fi
  if [[ "Disabled" != $new_dhcp ]]; then
    echo "Failed to disable DHCP for network $name"
...

Debug and Notice messages during Fuel master start

    Instead of running 'dockerctl build all' command in the background
    and long wait for a debug output we've split the command to build
    each container one by one, but keep the original order. Doing this,
    we have much more information what is going on.

Also this commit adds some important message to the log which used
as an anchor for VirtualBox scripts.

Proper Windows 7/8/10 support

    This commit adds enchantments and proper support for Windows 7/8/10:
     * more verbose messages.
     * by default all network interfaces will be removed.
     * some code cleanup and regexp fixes.
     * added sleeps for some network operations.
     * proper support for windows full filenames.
