Vagrant box setup - vagrant

I am trying to setup Hyperledger fabric on my Windows 7 machine. I installed all the prerequisite for environment setup like: Go, Oracle VM, Vagrant.
I cloned the fabric folder from hyperledger site. While trying to run vagrant up, it throws me error like:
connection aborted ,Retrying ....
It took SSH user name as: ubuntu and SSH password: password
I followed the steps from link1 and link2 for my setup.
Can any one suggest me how to solve this problem?
It would be great help for me if anyone share some solutions.
Please find the error screenshot for your reference.

Have you tried the docker setup? Seems to be the recommenced development environment.
To answer your question, Vagrant wants to use SSH keys for password-less access by default. Your Vagrantfile should point to SSH keys to use. Since you're on Windows you may need to generate these keys.

Gitlab on Window with Docker

When I try to connect on gitlab on my browser, I received this error :
SSH-2.0-OpenSSH_8.2p1 Ubuntu0.2
Invalid SSH identification string
Can someone please help me?
Assuming you are using a GitLab Docker image, do note that Docker for Windows is not officially supported.
There are known issues with volume permissions, and potentially other unknown issues.
Annother approach would be to install GitLab in a WSL2 Linux session on your computer, and see if it answers better to SSH queries.

Docker stuck on "Waiting for SSH to be available..."

I'm using a docker with Windows and Hyper-v to create containers. I've added a docker machine vmachine to my docker configuration. First time the machine is created, it gets an IP (although I cannot manage nginx to access it - ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED) and finishes the bootup.
When I turn off the machine and then try to boot it, i get stuck in this message
Waiting for SSH to be available...
And it doesn't evolve from there. The machine is booted, however, I get an IPv6 when I input the command docker-machine ip vmachine like - fe80::215:5dff:fe21:10b insted of a IPv4
What am I doing wrong?
Problem here is by default docker uses DockerNAT network switch. You should create a new external network switch instead. This issue is covered here and here. You can create an external network switch using the below command
docker-machine create -d hyperv --hyperv-virtual-switch external-switch tempbox1
or you can create one through the UI
Be sure to reboot the device after creating the external switch.
I had a similar issue and non of the solutions worked. Turns out that according to this answer, docker launches SSH with Unix specific elements. This is said to have been fixed in the releases that followed, but I still encountered the 'Waiting for SSH' issue. I resolved this by simply using GIT bash to run all docker related SSH commands.
Use the switch --native-ssh
for example docker-machine --native-ssh .... Get more details from here
docker-machine.exe -debug create --driver hyperv --hyperv-virtual-switch "External Virtual Switch" --hyperv-cpu-count "1" --hyperv-memory "1024" --hyperv-disk-size "20000" mydockervm
make sure to have additional VirtualSwitch configure , with external network driver selected , Uninstall virtualbox
Use the debug switch to see the exact error , for me it was not able to allocate memory.
Here's what's solved it for me.
Turns out Windows 10 starting version 1709 has a built in SSH client at C:\Windows\System32\OpenSSH. Here's an article discussing it.
Looks like docker is using that SSH implementation and it's not compatible. I didn't look for a proper way to remove the built-in SSH implementatino in Windows 10, and simply renamed the folder. That was enough to fix it for me.
After doing what is mentioned in the above suggestions and if you are running docker on a windows machine try to login using cli. This has worked for me.
If you are using Command Promt Docker will stuck at Waiting for SSH to be available..., So change to use GIT BASH as #Dave Howson said it will work.
If you're using oracle VM you must ensure first that your new cloud vm is running.

Configure TCP endpoint when vagrant up or reload

I'm using Vagrant to run an Ubuntu VM with Microsoft Azure provider, but I need to create an endpoint on this VM.
I've done it installing azure command-line tools with
npm install azure-cli -g
and after that
azure vm endpoint create {VM-Name} 80 8080
VM is running fine without problems. But I don't want to configure the endpoint manually anymore. I would like to create it when I run vagrant up. I don't want to use vagrant provision, because this shell instruction should not be executed in my VM, but in my physical machine.
There is no options such as verbose in vagrant, which would have permitted me to see what it really does with the Vagrantfile, and what I should do to implement a shell command like this one in it.
Ansver to initial question, do the following:
in vagrantfile add following string in azure provider section:
azure.tcp_endpoints = '80:8080'
hope this help.
answer to your question about verbose output:
you may run vagrant up --provider=azure --debug
for additional debug information.
if you need to run local scripts you may try to use vagrant-triggers plugin

Turn off SSH while using Vagrant and AWS

I am trying to use Vagrant to boot Windows servers on AWS and after the machine starts Vagrant will always try to ssh into the machines. Is there any way to turn this off? There doesn't seem to be any documentation on skipping ssh during the configuration
As far as I know, no there isn't. There are several bugs in the vagrant-aws github repository that cover this, some of which talk about workarounds:

FreeNX(nomachine) unable to connect after cloning of a working ubuntu EC2 instance

I have previously setup a EC2 instance on Ubuntu 10.04 and setup the necessary binaries to allow ssh and more importantly FreeNX(no machine) to work on my MacOS-10.6 machine.
As this was done on a micro instance, i was keen to try it on small instance today so i created a AMI image from the aws management console(browser) and launch a new small instance using the image with the exact same keypair and security setting.
Expecting the instance to work exactly the same(except much faster) i tried to connect to it using SSH and FreeNX again.
Result:
SSH is working fine and my env look exactly the same.
NX is unable to connect.
it complain username/password is incorrect.
I wonder why this is happen since i did an exact clone of the EC2 instance and i can connect fine using NX with the previous instance?
I had the same issue, and after a lot of searching fixed it. It seems freenx lost the usernames and passwords. I fixed it by doing the following:
log in with putty as ubuntu user then
cd /etc/nxserver
sudo vim node.conf
set ENABLE_PASSDB_AUTHENTICATION="1" and save the file
then
sudo nxserver --adduser xxxxxx
sudo nxserver --passwd yyyyyy
sudo nxserver --restart
after that I was able to log in using nomachine with the username and password I just set.
