Why am i getting this error when doing vagrant up ["storageattach", :id, "--storagectl", "IDE Controller", "--port", 1, "--device", 0, "--type", "hdd", "--medium", "server.vdi"]

The following error was experienced:

<Vagrant::Errors::VBoxManageError: There was an error while executing VBoxManage, a CLI used by Vagrant

for controlling VirtualBox. The command and stderr is shown below.

Command: ["storageattach", "1c6e2766-4d14-4094-88ed-dfdb4bcf1e20", "--storagectl", "IDE Controller", "--port", "1", "--device", "0", "--type", "hdd", "--medium", "server.vdi"]

Stderr: VBoxManage: error: Could not find a controller named 'IDE Controller'

Please fix this customization and try again.
