On Windows 10, "vagrant up" and "vagrant box add" throw blank errors

bw commented 8 years ago

This issue is closed. If you are experiencing this problem, please install Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86) (note: must be 2010, and x86, version). If that doesn't solve your problem, open a new issue -- nobody on this thread is a Vagrant contributor.

I'm having some trouble getting Vagrant to work on my computer (Intel i7/Windows 10). I've installed VirtualBox then Vagrant, but when I try to run vagrant up or vagrant box add [box], the action fails with a blank error message (literally, nothing shows up in the Error field). See (1) and (2) below.

Commands are being run in PowerShell but the same problem occurs on Command Prompt. (Ugh, development on Windows)
I've tried disabling the firewall and reinstalling Vagrant but it makes no difference.
When I make up a box name the same errors occur. See (3) below.
This led me to believe that it might be a connection issue, but with a locally downloaded copy a similar problem happens. See (4) below.
I suspected that there might be a problem with CURL; following instructions as detailed in this year-old issue (i.e. replacing curl.exe with a version found online) does not fix the issue.
Deleting .vagrant.d from the user directory does not solve the problem.
Reinstalling Vagrant in the default directory (C:\HashiCorp\Vagrant\) does not solve the problem.
Using different packages (I've tried the top few from the public list of boxes) does not solve the problem.

Finally, I've copy and pasted a --debug copy of vagrant box add, if that is at all helpful -- see (5) below.

Please advise-- I feel like I've tried everything and it is just not working! This is incredibly frustrating.

1) Doesn't work with `vagrant up`

PS C:\dev\homestead> vagrant up
Bringing machine 'default' up with 'virtualbox' provider...
==> default: Box 'laravel/homestead' could not be found. Attempting to find and install...
    default: Box Provider: virtualbox
    default: Box Version: >= 0
The box 'laravel/homestead' could not be found or
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
URL and error message are shown below:

URL: ["https://atlas.hashicorp.com/laravel/homestead"]
Error:
PS C:\dev\homestead>

2) Doesn't work with `vagrant box add`

PS C:\dev\homestead> vagrant box add laravel/homestead
The box 'laravel/homestead' could not be found or
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
URL and error message are shown below:

URL: ["https://atlas.hashicorp.com/laravel/homestead"]
Error:
PS C:\dev\homestead>

3) Same message shown for nonexistent box...

PS C:\dev\homestead> vagrant box add random/box
The box 'random/box' could not be found or
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
URL and error message are shown below:

URL: ["https://atlas.hashicorp.com/random/box"]
Error:
PS C:\dev\homestead>

4) ...but also for local copy of box

PS C:\Dev\homestead> vagrant box add --name hashicorp/precise32 ../precise32.box
==> box: Box file was not detected as metadata. Adding it directly...
==> box: Adding box 'hashicorp/precise32' (v0) for provider:
    box: Unpacking necessary files from: file://C:/Dev/precise32.box
    box:
An error occurred while downloading the remote file. The error
message, if any, is reproduced below. Please fix this error and try
again.

PS C:\Dev\homestead>

5) Verbose debug version of `vagrant box add`

PS C:\Dev\homestead> vagrant box add laravel/homestead --debug

Check this https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant/issues/6754

bw commented 8 years ago

@Hondilla somehow, four hours of Googling did not yield that issue! The problem was that I had the x64 version but not the x86 version of the redistributable installed. Thanks!

mwrock commented 8 years ago

I just hit this myself too on windows 10/vagrant 1.8.1. Rolling back to 1.7.4 works. I'll add the C++ redist mentioned in #6754 to get 1.8.1.

@sethvargo should this be reopened? Seems like a bad user experience to ship a version of curl (assuming thats the root cause) that does not work "out of the box" on windows 10.

bw commented 8 years ago

Chiming in again-- I legitimately spent around four or five hours trying to find the solution to this problem and nothing I looked at indicated that redistributable version was the problem. The fact that the error is extremely ambiguous (i.e. not a single error everyone searches for) made solving it even harder.

I, for one, would appreciate the .msi install process also automatically installing the redistributable.

StefanScherer commented 8 years ago

Got the same error. My workaround is

choco install -y vcredist2010

Larivact commented 8 years ago

As long as the installer isn't fixed a note "requires Visual C++ 2010" should probably be added to the windows download section; btw the issue also exists on Windows 7.

StefanScherer commented 8 years ago

It seems that the latest curl.exe are compiled with dynamic runtime. There are several ways to solve the problem for the vagrant installer:

don't use curl.exe at all, download with ruby http client. But I don't know the reasons why curl.exe has been used in the past.
find a curl.exe with static runtime
install the MSI with the vagrant.msi installer
add the runtime dll's side-by-side into the embedded/bin directory. Maybe there is a manifest file needed to tell Windows to look for the runtime side-by-side to curl.exe

vynn89 commented 8 years ago

I have exactly the same problem. Solved by installing Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86)

lmeyemezu commented 8 years ago

Hi, Sorry to bother... I've tried all (reinstall Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86),copy curl.exe from git bash....) . still have error :-1: Box file was not detected as metadata The box failed to unpackage properly. Please verify that the box file you're trying to add is not corrupted and try again. The output from attempting to unpackage (if any):

bsdtar.EXE: Error opening archive: Unrecognized archive format

zqhong commented 8 years ago

I also have the same error., but I slove it.

OS: Windows 8.1 x64 Vagrant: 1.8.1 VirtualBox: 5.0.16 Homestead: 0.4.2

Step1: Use your favourite editor open homestead/scripts/homestead.rb. And then find the line, in my case, it is line 17

config.vm.box_version = settings["version"] ||= ">= 0.4.0"

Step2: Change the '0.4.0' to '0', like this

config.vm.box_version = settings["version"] ||= ">= 0"

Step3: Just execute vagrant up. It might works. Good luck!

Installing Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86) solved my problem. I had a fresh installation of windows 10 x64 and vagrant 1.8.1

langocthach commented 8 years ago

You should installing Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86). I had a fresh installation of windows 10 x64 and vagrant 1.8.1

zackkrida commented 8 years ago

Can confirm that with vagrant 1.8.1, windows 10 x64 that adding https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8328 works.

ColbyWanShinobi commented 8 years ago

I spent hours trying to figure this out. Installing the 2010 vcredist package for x86 fixed this issue straight away on my Windows 10 x64 environment.

mknutty commented 8 years ago

I spent a few hours googling for a solution too. All solutions were Mac related. Ran with info level and got an error code and googled that and found this. Fix worked for me. FYI, I am running Windows 7

gtirloni commented 8 years ago

Getting the same issue on a fresh install of Windows 10 with VirtualBox 5.0.26 and Vagrant 1.8.5.

andydude commented 8 years ago

Same issue with Vagrant 1.8.7 on Mac OS X 10.10.5

JGONGSQ commented 7 years ago

I have the same issue with this with Vagrant 1.8.7 on Mac OS 10.12.1

kudos commented 7 years ago

Same here with Vagrant 1.8.7 on Mac OS 10.12.1. Downgrading to 1.8.6 resolves it for me.
