I am trying to set up virtual machine using virtual box. I have got virtual box and vagrant installed in my windows 7 64-bit machine. I have also built an environment using puphpet. But whenever I try to install the box ubuntu1404-x64 it throws the error
Bringing machine 'machine1' up with 'virtualbox' provider...

An error occurred while downloading the remote file. The error message, if any, is reproduced below. Please fix this error and try again.
I checked the URL https://atlas.hashicorp.com/puphpet/boxes/ubuntu1404-x64/ and the box puphpet/ubuntu1404-x64 does exist.
Also when it says The error message, if any, is reproduced below it does not show any description at the terminal.
I googled the issue, tried some of the answers here at stackoverflow but no result. Please help.
I've had a similar situation in the past, and it helped me to download the box using vagrant command line, instead of having it be downloaded automatically ( from the URL in Vagrantfile ):
$ vagrant box add USER/BOX
see more here. Could you try the same approach? It might work for you as well.
EDIT: on a windows box, Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 redist looks to be needed to perform the provisioning of the box. It can be downloaded here. More info on the puhpet issuet: here
I ran into a similar problem and fixed it by installing the latest version of vagrant.

Now I am facing an error about vagrant and virtualbox. I can't up my vagrant. while I up my vagrant it is show error below.
The provider 'virtualbox' that was requested to back the machine
'default' is reporting that it isn't usable on this system. The
reason is shown below:
VirtualBox is complaining that the installation is incomplete. Please
run `VBoxManage --version` to see the error message which should contain
instructions on how to fix this error.
After I run "VBoxManage --version" it shows
WARNING: The character device /dev/vboxdrv does not exist.
Please install the virtualbox-dkms package and the appropriate
headers, most likely linux-headers-generic.
You will not be able to start VMs until this problem is fixed.

I am trying to install laravel homestead and can't get past adding the homestead box.
The instruction is: vagrant box add laravel/homestead
After completing the download process following error appears.
C:\Users\HARSHA - PC PRO>vagrant box add laravel/homestead
==> box: Loading metadata for box 'laravel/homestead'
box: URL: https://vagrantcloud.com/laravel/homestead

The specified checksum type is not supported by Vagrant: sha512.
Vagrant supports the following checksum types:
md5, sha1, sha256
I'm on Windows 10 64 bit PC and have tried these instructions with the virtualbox(Version 6.0.0 r127566 (Qt5.6.2)) and vagrant_2.2.2_x86_64 version.
I'm trying to install Laravel homestead and am not aware of resolving this since I am new to the Laravel vagrant. I searched the web for the particular problem and I could not find any solution pertaining to the above, so any help is appreciated.
As mentioned in Vagrant's CHANGELOG.md file, new checksum types are now supported. Simply updating Vagrant to its latest version (2.2.6) should do the trick.
You can then do vagrant box update to upgrade the Homestead box.
In my case I saw in the logs that the version trying to get installed was v9.2.2-alpha1
box: Adding box 'laravel/homestead' (v9.2.2-alpha1) for provider:
virtualbox
What worked for me is defining the version by using the following parameter
--box-version=9.1.1
i.e.
vagrant box add laravel/homestead --checksum-type=sha256 --box-version=9.1.1
Also, try to download and install the latest version of vagrant.
You are using the unsupported checksum type.try installing with --checksum-type parameter. Given below,
vagrant box add laravel/homestead --checksum-type sha256
Here is the Docs to refer to while using command-line.
Try 2.2.7 version.
vagrant -v
Vagrant 2.2.7
==> box: Successfully added box 'laravel/homestead' (v9.3.0) for 'virtualbox'!
I had the same problem and it took multiple attempts.
Problems
Couldn't update the vagrant box.
Once I downloaded it wouldn't switch to the new box.
Once I switched Laravel threw a Facade error.
Solution
(with many thank you's to the answers in this thread):
Navigate to the Homestead/Vagrant folder.
Then run "vagrant -v" to check your Vagrant version (ex. "Vagrant 2.1.5").
In a web browser go to https://www.vagrantup.com/downloads.html .
Download the latest Vagrant version.
On your computer, run and install the new version.
Go to: https://www.virtualbox.org/
Download the lastest Virtual Machine.
On your computer, run and install the new version.
Back in the terminal, check the vagrant version again "vagrant -v" (ex. "Vagrant 2.2.10").
Make sure your Vagrant is stopped by running "vagrant halt".
Purge and reinstall your vagrant plugins to be safe with "vagrant plugin expunge --reinstall" (and confirm "Y").
Now run "vagrant box update" to update your box.
Now load your box with "vagrant up".
With your box loaded run "vagrant destroy".
Now run "vagrant up" again to rebuild your box from scratch.
This worked for me. Let me know if this works for you.
Today, I try to add box laravel homestead following document in laravel home page. But I have an error in my laptop using windows 8.1. The first step, I installed vagrant, virtualbox and using syntax vagrant box add laravel/homestead. It's will show error log in git bash :

could not be accessed in the remote catalog. If this is a private
box on HashiCorp's Atlas, please verify you're logged in via
`vagrant login`. Also, please double-check the name. The expanded

Again, I run : rm ~/.vagrant.d/tmp/* and vagrant up. But not working.In addition, another computer everything good.What can I do, anyone?
If you are having a similar issue try checking the curl or you can simple copy one if you are using git bash under Windows.
cp /mingw64/bin/curl.exe /c/HashiCorp/Vagrant/embedded/bin/curl.exe
I am trying to set up vagrant locally on my Windows 10 machine, I have pre installed latest version of Vagant and Virtual box. I am trying to setup Ubuntu 14, Apache, PHP and Mysql. After downloading the package from puphpet.com, I CD in to the directory and trying to run vagrant up. I am getting the following error. I also tried with Centos, getting the same error
F:\puphpet (3)\MQLYog>vagrant up
Bringing machine 'local' up with 'virtualbox' provider...

`vagrant login`. Also, please double-check the name. The expanded
URL and error message are shown below:

Error:
hmm it looks like the name is correct, can you try to download the box separately :
vagrant box add puphpet/centos65-x64
if you have a SSL error you can run
vagrant box add puphpet/centos65-x64 --insecure
when prompted for the provider, select virtualbox
Vagrant comes with a own curl.exe on Windows, but this seems to be broken.
Try to install Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86)
If it does not work, then try this way:
Install a working curl.exe executable Download
Make curl available for the whole system (PATH system-variable) tutorial
Delete or rename the unfunctional curl.exe in C:\HashiCorp\Vagrant\embedded\bin

The name of your virtual machine couldn't be set because VirtualBox
is reporting another VM with that name already exists. Most of the
time, this is because of an error with VirtualBox not cleaning up
properly. To fix this, verify that no VMs with that name do exist
(by opening the VirtualBox GUI). If they don't, then look at the
folder in the error message from VirtualBox below and remove it
if there isn't any information you need in there.

You already did this, as stated in the error message?
To fix this, verify that no VMs with that name do exist (by opening the VirtualBox GUI). If they don't, then look at the folder in the error message from VirtualBox below and remove it if there isn't any information you need in there.
I was confused by the response because I was deleting the machine form virtual box manager. I went to the c/users/%user%/Vbox directory and deleted all the boxes and was able to reload the vbox. I suspect all data was lost but it was a fresh install but curious how to back up the data and restore it in this situation. (I.e. in the event I had data there I needed.)
