bug in VBoxAdditions v 4.3.10 prevents Vagrant from mounting shared folder #77

Open tmcgee opened 10 years ago

tmcgee commented 10 years ago

When using the latest version of VirtualBox (v 4.3.10), the Vagrant box built via the packer script does not mount the "/vagrant" shared folder so the provisioning halts.

This is a known issue with the installation of the VBboxAdditions. The issue and the workaround are found here:

https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant/issues/3341

and here:

https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/12879

The workaround is to add the symlink within the VM using this command:

 sudo ln -s /opt/VBoxGuestAdditions-4.3.10/lib/VBoxGuestAdditions/usr/lib/VBoxGuestAdditions

This can be executed as an additional line in the packer serverconfig.json file after the VBoxAdditions have been installed. It also can be executed within the running VM (vagrant ssh) followed by a vagrant reload.

I have confirmed the issue and the fix works with both a Linux host and a Windows host.

This issue is apparently fixed in the upcoming v 4.3.11 release of VirtualBox.
