Failure to launch Homestead Vagrant Box - php

I am in the middle of following Laravel Tutorial which directs me to installing the homestead vagrant box; I am stuck on composer part.
I use Ubuntu 14.04 LTS (64bit) and ran Vagrant through virtualbox 5.0.24r108355 (amd64). Apparently Homestead has conflict with virtualbox 5.1.
My understanding of Homestead is that it will set up
Ubuntu 16.04
Git
PHP 7.0
HHVM
Nginx
MySQL
MariaDB
Sqlite3
Postgres
Composer
Node (With PM2, Bower, Grunt, and Gulp)
Redis
Memcached
Beanstalkd
This is partly confirmed by the following: 16.04 LTS installation.
yhk#home:~/Homestead$ vagrant ssh

* Documentation: https://help.ubuntu.com/
Last login: Fri Jul 15 13:20:08 2016 from 10.0.2.2
However, when I try vagrant up, it fails. Apparently, I am already using composer. How do I proceed along to fix this glitch and have vagrant up and running properly?

Once again, how do I proceed along to get composer issue fixed and have vagrant up and running?

have you tried to run vagrant up with sudo privileges?
cd to Homestead folder and execute
sudo vagrant up
and then see if the error remains. sometimes this is a issue related with permissions.

You have a synced folder configured from your Vagrantfile but this folder does not exists.
Create the folder ~/Code on your mac and run again (you can run mkdir -pv ~/Code)

Error when run "composer update". Windows / Vagrant / Laravel Homestead

Installed stack: Windows 7 64x / Vagrant / Oracle VM Box / Laravel Homestead.
Mapping works, laravel's site's works. But when I run command: "composer update" - I get error message:
Failed to decode response: zlib_decode(): data error
Retrying with degraded mode, check https://getcomposer.org/doc/articles/troubleshooting.md#degraded-mode for more info
P.S. I have done:
Disable windows defender
Turn off firewall
Run composer clear cache
Run composer diagnose - everything is ok
php.ini - zlib is turned on
there are no antivirus soft on my system
I've been having the same issue! What works for me so far is disabling XDebug on the CLI, which at least allows degraded mode to work.
To make it work, run this command when SSH'd into your Homestead box:
$ sudo phpdismod -s cli xdebug
Hope it helps!

Vagrant error while mounting nfs shared folders following roots bedrock+trellis+sage tutorial

Im following this repo https://github.com/roots/roots-example-project.com.
I did all steps till the vargrant up to see the development part.
It gives me this error after a few seconds:
==> default: Preparing to edit /etc/exports. Administrator privileges will be required... sudo: /etc/init.d/nfs-kernel-server: command not
found
==> default: Mounting NFS shared folders... The following SSH command responded with a non-zero exit status. Vagrant assumes that this means
the command failed!

Stdout from the command:
Stderr from the command:
stdin: is not a tty mount.nfs: requested NFS version or transport
protocol is not supported
I need to get that going and i've tried everything i found on internet.
It only gives this error once after that it only shows this when running vagrant up.

==> default: VirtualBox VM is already running.
==> default: Checking for host entries
--- work/example.com »
any idea whats happening?
PS. Im on Ubuntu.
It looks like nfsd is not running on your host machine (ubuntu does not install by default, mac os does)
install with sudo apt-get install nfs-kernel-server
most probably it will be enough, if not follow the instructions from https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SettingUpNFSHowTo to setup everything.
Second option : if you do not want to setup nfs, you can remove , type: 'nfs' from the Vagrantfile and let vagrant use the default sharing folder mechanism.

I have provided the full bash commands and logs here:
http://pastebin.com/hcKpF9kA
Kindly view the log above and advise.
Its working now!
I ended up doing a fresh installation of both vagrant and virtualbox.
I took the following steps:
1.
I uninstalled vagrant and Virtualbox and deleted their folders from my system.
I also deleted the following folders:
C:\Users\mysername\.homestead
C:\Users\username\Homestead - vagrant environment
I deleted all the network adapters install by VM
Open Virtualbox and click File -> Preferences, click Network tab and then Host-only networks. Click on each item and click delete button
I download and install fresh copies of Vagrant and Virtualbox.
Am using Windows 7 (32bit)
https://dl.bintray.com/mitchellh/vagrant/vagrant_1.7.2.msi
http://dlc-cdn.sun.com/virtualbox/4.3.22/VirtualBox-4.3.22-98236-Win.exe
I also download laravel/homestead manually
https://vagrantcloud.com/laravel/boxes/homestead/versions/0.2.2/providers/virtualbox.box
to my downloads folder C:\Downloads\homestead-0-2-2.box
After i have install Virtualbox and Vagrant. I installed laravel/homestead by running the following command in git bash (you can download git bash here: http://git-scm.com/downloads).
vagrant box add laravel/homestead /c/downloads/homestead-0-2-2.box
Then i downloaded vagrant environment so i can run vagrant commands:
Run this command in Git bash. I run this command inside C:\users\yourusername
git clone https://github.com/laravel/homestead.git Homestead
NB: This will create this folder: C:\Users\yourusername\Homestead
With some files.
Still in Git bash, cd into C:\Users\yourusername\Homestead and run this command:
bash init.sh
NB: this will create a folder C:\Users\yourusername\.homestead that contains Homestead.yaml and some other files
Then Generate an SSH key which you will need when you want to login to your VM by running this command:
ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "youremailaddress#youremail.com"
NB: This will ask some question simply hit enter or type yes and hit enter.
This will create your ssh key inside C:\Users\yourusername\.ssh
Then you need to configure homestead by editing.
C:\Users\digitlimit\Homestead\Homestead.yaml
You can right-click Homestead.yaml file then click open then choose to open with wordpad.
My Homestead.yaml looks this after editing:
---
ip: "192.168.10.10"
memory: 2048
cpus: 1
authorize: ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
keys:
- ~/.ssh/id_rsa
folders:
- map: /wamp/www
to: /home/vagrant/Code
sites:
- map: laravel.dev
to: /home/vagrant/Code/laravel/public
databases:
- homestead
variables:
- key: APP_ENV
value: local
# blackfire:
# - id: foo
# token: bar
NB: To understand the mapping which is a process of sharing a folder between the host and the VM:
My laravel project is located at C:\wamp\www\laravel
This directory /home/vagrant/Code will be inside the VM after installation.
So what am telling VM is, whenever you see /home/vagrant/Code reference this folder C:\wamp\www\laravel
Also in this:
sites:
- map: laravel.dev
to: /home/vagrant/Code/laravel/public
What we are saying here is when i go to my browser and type http://laravel.dev display the content of /home/vagrant/Code/laravel/public which is actually pointing to C:\www\wamp\laravel\public
After editing Homestead.yaml file save your chnages
NB: Before we can use http://laravel.dev in the host web browser to view our laravel project, we need to add this the following to the hosts file located in
C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts
Add this ip address under the list of other ip address listed if any:
192.168.10.10 laravel.dev
Finally, go back to your Git bash, ensure you are in
/c/Users/yourusername/homestead and type:
vagrant up
Wait for vagrant to complete its processes. Click yes when you see any dialog box asking for permission to create network adapter on your system
Well thats all i did. Working for me

vagrant : Failed to mount folders in Linux guest, "vboxsf" file system is not available?

I have VirtualBox 4.3.10 and Vagrant 1.4.3 installed on my Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit Desktop.
Earlier, worked with vagrant technology but this time, multiple issue. Let me describe what I have done
clone private git to local system /opt/lampp/htdocs/{project} : done
root#desktop:/opt/lampp/htdocs/{project}$ vagrant up
gives message on terminal while execution
GuestAdditions versions on your host (4.3.10) and guest (4.2.0) do not match.
command completed with below message
Failed to mount folders in Linux guest. This is usually beacuse the
"vboxsf" file system is not available. Please verify that the guest
additions are properly installed in the guest and can work properly.
The command attempted was:
...
I understand this is version difference.
check vagrant vbguest --status
GuestAdditions 4.3.10 running --- OK.
Open browser and run with http://192.168.0.33 (mentioned on README.md file of private git repo) but it didn't work.
UPDATE
Installed vagrant-vbguest as suggested here
$:sudo vagrant plugin install vagrant-vbguest
Installed the plugin 'vagrant-vbguest (0.10.0)'!
By doing this,message of version difference of GuestAdditions described in 2. is gone
restart vagrant halt and then vagrant up

mount -t vboxsf -o uid=`id -u vagrant`,gid=`id -g vagrant` /vagrant /vagrant
Do I need to change anything in local vagrantfile or change vagrant version or something else?
Some say it is a bug whilesome gives solution for ubuntu < 14.04
Kindly suggest the solution hints and how to fix this issue?
vagrant plugin install vagrant-vbguest
worked well for me (Virtual Box 5.0.22, Vagrant 1.8.4). It took muck longer to provision initially because the plugin downloaded gcc and a bunch of other tools before linking the guest additions .iso to the correct place.
Apparently there is a bug in the VirtualBox Guest Additions 4.3.10 installer: https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/12879
There seems to be a simple workaround to this, by creating a symbolic link within Vagrant-VM:
sudo ln -s /opt/VBoxGuestAdditions-4.3.10/lib/VBoxGuestAdditions \
/usr/lib/VBoxGuestAdditions
You could add this to your provisioning configuration to make sure you don't hit the bug again:
NEWEST_VBOXGUESTADDITIONS_DIR=`find /opt/ -maxdepth 1 -mindepth 1 -name "VBoxGuestAdditions-*" | tail -n 1`;
if [[ ! -d "/usr/lib/VBoxGuestAdditions" && -n "$NEWEST_VBOXGUESTADDITIONS_DIR" ]];
then
ln -s ${NEWEST_VBOXGUESTADDITIONS_DIR}/lib/VBoxGuestAdditions /usr/lib/VBoxGuestAdditions
fi
This line of code in "Vagrantfile" was the solution for me:
config.vm.synced_folder "./", "/vagrant", id: "vagrant-root", type: "nfs"
In my case, this error was fixed by rebuilding the kernel on the guest machine with
sudo service vboxadd setup.
