I'm trying to use a pre-built vagrant box, one built by Mathew Baldwin for WLS12c on CentOS 6.4, and ran into a problem. The vagrant up command failed:
A few things:
- Running the VirtualBox command "vboxmanage list hostonlyifs" separately is fine.
- I'm not running the command or session as an Administrator, in fact that fails with a completely different error given that's a separate account and does not have the required vagrant box.
- I'm using the awesome Console2 (by Marko Bozikovic) but that matters not since the same error occurs in plain old cmd.exe
- The command does complete successfully in MobaXterm 7.1 (another awesome tool!), though later down during the processing of the box (during Puppet configuration I believe) my machine does a hard shutdown/crash
- VirtualBox version is 4.3.12
- Vagrant version is 1.6.2
- Windows 7 Pro SP1, 64-bit
A Google search revealed others have had this problem, but not too many actual solutions, or at least one that worked for me. Here's how I got past this problem outside of using my MobaXterm (given that had shutdown my machine each time previously).
The fix was to start VirtualBox before running vagrant up. Even still, there remains some instability due to what seems to me like timing issues with vagrant sending commands to VirtualBox as on occasion the process fails (i.e. times out) waiting for the VM to start up and show the login prompt.
