Below is the output of my try to install vagrant-parallels. Do note that I have a very clean install (reformatted system disk) of High Sierra. I ran Sierra or lower the last time I did this. ___________________________________________________________ Tommys-iMac:~ tommy$ vagrant plugin install vagrant-parallels Installing the 'vagrant-parallels' plugin.

Exactly the same result. Should I bug this on GitHub ? Best Regards, Tommy Svensson
Oh that (beeeep) Xcode license agreement!!! Im not a Mac developer so I in general do not run xcode. Anyhow, after agreeing to xcode the installation worked fine. Note that is is "xcodebuild -license" that you need to run in a shell. on: http://parallels.github.io/vagrant-parallels/docs/installation/ it would be very helpful if under "Requirements", "Make sure you have installed and accepted the xcode license, which is done by running 'xcodebuild -license' in a shell." were added.
@tombensve Thank you for posting the solution! That issue is caused by the nokogiri gem, which is installed automatically as a dependency of "vagrant-parallels" plugin. That appeared not so long time ago, because previously nokogiri was bundled into a Vagrant package, so no compilation were needed on the target machine. Due to a specifics of nokogiri, it compiles some libs on the target machine during the installation, so it requires some command line tools like "make" and C compiler to be available. These are absent by default on clean Macs, but that's actually could be solved once by running "xcode-select --install" or "xcodebuild --license" (if XCode.app is installed). Anyway, you're right that we need to mention that in our docs. I'll manage to do add such notice there soon
