The host path of the shared folder is missing: ~/Code - laravel

I'd like to use laravel homestead for my development machine and installed virtualbox and vagrant successfully, but when I run vagrant up I get this error:
Bringing machine 'default' up with 'virtualbox' provider...
There are errors in the configuration of this machine. Please fix
the following errors and try again:
vm:
* The host path of the shared folder is missing: ~/Code
The Homestead.yaml file looks like this:
---
ip: "192.168.10.10"
memory: 2048
cpus: 1
authorize: ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
keys:
- ~/.ssh/id_rsa
folders:
- map: ~/Code
to: /home/vagrant/Code
sites:
- map: homestead.app
to: /home/vagrant/Code/Laravel/public
hhvm: true
databases:
- homestead
variables:
- key: APP_ENV
value: local
These are the default settings, but they don't really work for my machine - I don't even have /home/vagrant folder nor do I have ~/Code anywhere where I can see. I'm using ubuntu 12.04 - can you please point me to how I should configure my settings because by the official documentation I'm kind of lost.

Inside the homestead directory, you have to run the command bash init.sh.
This will generate the Homestead.yaml file (and after.sh and aliases) inside your home directory (~).
If you are changing Homestead.yaml again, you have to re-run bash init.sh again. It will ask for overwrite, say yes.
(and as mentioned in other answers, be sure that the directory for folders: - map: exists)

In your Ubuntu machine you have to let Homestead know where your actual code is located. Example:
If you code is located in a seperate partition called WORKSPACE you need to type the following:
- map: /Volumes/WORKSPACE/YourProject
to: /home/vagrant/Code

In Windows case I used this:
- map: e:/GIT/PHP/mathmaps/Code
to: /home/vagrant/Code
P.S. GIT is my workspace folder

running bash init.sh a second time will prompt to overwrite the initial setup, this will also output the directory path you require to edit the correct Homestead.yaml file.

The map: attribute has to be set to the location to where you want to keep your code. For example, I will be saving my code in a folder called code within the Homestead folder therefore, map is:
folders:
- map: ~/Development/Homestead/Code
to: /home/vagrant/Code
Where 'Development' is simply a folder in my home directory where I keep all my code

Vagrant/Homestead ssh Identity file not accessible: no such file or directory

I'm having an issue when trying to run
vagrant ssh
I keep getting
Warning: Identity file C:/Users/Firstnamenot accessible: No such file or directory.
bash: Lastname/Homestead/.vagrant/machines/homestead-7/virtualbox/private_key: No such file or directory
I normally try to stick to one word usernames, but work set this computer so I'm stuck with that space there. At least I'm guessing that the command is seeing the space and thinking that's the end of the directory path. Is there a way to hard code this path, or a way around it?
Edit:
I'm running on windows
and my homestead.yaml is:
---
ip: "192.168.10.10"
memory: 2048
cpus: 1
provider: virtualbox
authorize: ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
keys:
- ~/.ssh/id_rsa
folders:
- map: ~/Projects
to: /home/vagrant/Projects
sites:
- map: homestead.app
to: /home/vagrant/Projects/Laravel/public
databases:
- homestead
I had to install homestead again in a different directory, to do so I followed
Change VAGRANT_HOME directory on windows
setx VAGRANT_HOME="X:\your\path"
Then as indicated at the manual I created the box again
vagrant box add laravel/homestead
I also created a Homestead dir outside my users folder and follow the manual:
git clone https://github.com/laravel/homestead.git Homestead
git chechout vX.Y.Z
bash init.sh
So if you can make directories outside your user directory, this should work.

Unable to find code folder in the vagrant home directory

I am trying to setup vagrant on my windows OS. I have watched some tutorial about that.
According to those tutorial, I should be able to map some folder from windows to the vagrant machine . I have configured homestead.yaml file with below info :
authorize: ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
keys:
- /Users/Fakhreddin/.ssh/id_rsa
folders:
- map: Users/Fakhreddin/code
to: /home/vagrant/code
sites:
- map: homestead.app
to: /home/vagrant/Code/Laravel/public
databases:
- homestead
variables:
- key: APP_ENV
value: local
But when i check my vagrant home directory, there is no folder with code name
I have tried to create it manually, But it doesn't work.
What's wrong with it and how to solve?
add this line to Vagrantfile
config.vm.synced_folder "Users/Fakhreddin/code", "/home/vagrant/code"
The folder name is Code, with uppercase, the Linux machine is case sensitive.
check VagrantFile ,find this:
config.vm.synced_folder "D:/Project", "/home/vagrant/Code"

My Laravel Homestead doesn't work

I'm having problem to understand how to run my website using vagrant and Laravel Homestead environment.
I added laravel/homestead box without any problems. Then I ran vagrant init laravel/homestead and it worked too.
I managed to create Homestead.yaml and here's what it contains:
---
ip: "192.168.10.10"
memory: 2048
cpus: 1
provider: virtualbox
authorize: ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
keys:
- ~/.ssh/id_rsa
folders:
- map: ~/www
to: /home/vagrant/code
sites:
- map: project.dev
to: /home/vagrant/code/project
databases:
- homestead
variables:
- key: APP_ENV
value: local
vagrant up runs correctly, but I don't know how to access my website. I added 192.168.10.10 project.dev to my /etc/hosts.
I want to keep my project at ~/www/project. First thing that I didn't understand from the docs is, what is the folder at sites / map / to setting supposed to be? My local folder or a folder in the virtual environment?
The next thing I don't understand is why when I do vagrant ssh and then ls, I don't see any files, even though there's index.php at my ~/www/project. I thought they are going to be synchronized automatically.
When I go to project.dev in the browser, it timeouts. I tried project.dev:8000 as well and 192.168.10.10, but nothing works.
Please help me.
You are forgetting the folders parameter, also your indentation should be with spaces and not with tabs, thats the way yaml works, everything else seems to be fine but try to make it with something similar to this one
---
ip: "192.168.10.10"
memory: 2048
cpus: 1
provider: virtualbox
authorize: ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
keys:
- ~/.ssh/id_rsa

- map: ~/www/project

to: /home/vagrant/code/project/public

you're missing the folder share settings in you're homestead.yaml file.
Try adding
folders:
- map: ~/www/project
to: /home/vagrant/code
Look at the docs here
http://laravel.com/docs/5.1/homestead#configuring-homestead under Configuring Shared Folders
I think this is the common issue that someone new to Laravel Homestead is facing.
Laravel Homestead basically provides an image that gets a VM ready for Laravel development. The yaml config on "sites" is basically use to configure Nginx - it does not install a Laravel project on the path specified.
So for a new homestead VM, you just have to ssh into your Homestead VM, and type and run this:
composer global require "laravel/installer=~1.1"
Once done, on you /home/vagrant/code folder (in the VM, not your host), type and run this:
laravel new project
Where the "project" is the name given to your new project. Since your yaml is already configured to "project", the above command will work fine. Obviously, this is clearly not the only way to get Laravel as you can use composer create-project to install Laravel directly.
Once done, you should be able to visit http://project.dev on your host's browser, if your host file is configured with this added entry:
192.168.10.10<tab>project.dev
Alternatively, you can configure your host file to be
127.0.0.1<tab>project.dev
Which you can then view on your host's browser via http://project.dev:8000
Hope the above explains clear enough. Enjoy!

After installing Homestead I get "No input file specified" in the browser. How can I access my laravel project

I think I finally got homestead installed on my laptop! Now, I am trying to view my laravel project in the browser.
When I open "dev.app" in the browser I get a message that say "No input file specified." which I think means that my homestead is working but the laravel project is not there/setup.
I have created a folder called Projects on my local laptop (i.e. ~/Projects). Then from inside of it i executed this command
laravel new dev
But I still get the same error message in the browser i.e. "No input file specified." I have also tried to open this link "dev.app"/dev" but I still get the same message.
What I am doing wrong?
Here is the content of my Homestead.yaml file
ip: "192.168.10.10"
memory: 2048
cpus: 1
provider: virtualbox
authorize: ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
keys:
- ~/.ssh/id_rsa
folders:
- map: ~/Projects
to: /home/vagrant/Code
sites:
- map: dev.app
to: /home/vagrant/Code/Laravel/public
databases:
- homestead
variables:
- key: APP_ENV
value: local
Additional, when I execute the following 2 commands in order
cd ~/Projects
ls
I see the following directories dev homestead
What should I do to see my project when I go to dev.app ? Do I need to do anything from my Ubuntu VM or I should be able to edit the files directly in located on ~\Projects\dev" from my laptop?
Add an entry in /etc/hosts on your local machine
192.168.10.10 dev.app
Correct the path to the public folder in the sites section of your Homestead.yaml
sites:
- map: dev.app
to: /home/vagrant/Code/dev/public

Homestead virtualbox error, the host path of the shared folder is missing: ~/Code

Iam trying to use homestead laravel, seems some issue that am feeling strange.
root#seetha-H81M-S:/home# homestead up

There are errors in the configuration of this machine. Please fix
the following errors and try again:

There is a folder named Homestead in /home/Homestead , still seems not working.
I have find similar questions in stack-overflow but nothing seems working for me.
Can anyone help me to solve this issue.
Thanks in advance.
OS Ubuntu 14.04
I had the same problem and fixed it by bash init.sh
Run the bash init.sh command from the Homestead directory to create the Homestead.yaml configuration file. The Homestead.yaml file will be placed in the ~/.homestead hidden directory.
If you are changing Homestead.yaml again, you have to re-run bash init.sh again. It will ask for overwrite, say yes.
You have this issue when your folders are not properly mapped.
This is how to map your folders in vagrant Homestead.yaml
folders:
- map: ~/Code
to: /home/vagrant/Code
~/Code means /home/yourUsername/Code must exist in your host computer.
The code folder will house all your Laravel apps.
Example you could have the following apps in Code folder which are on your host
/home/vagrant/Code/laravelapp
/home/vagrant/Code/laravelapp2
Homestead.yaml may now look like this
---
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/laravelapp/public
- map: laravel.dev2
to: /home/vagrant/Code/laravelapp2/public
databases:
- homestead
variables:
- key: APP_ENV
value: local
# blackfire:
# - id: foo
# token: bar
