VirtualBox guest-specific operations error

[okeefm]

Hello,

I'm using Vagrant with Vagrant-proxyconf behind a corporate proxy. When I run VAGRANT_LOG=info vagrant up --provider=docker using the "Docker" provider on a Mac (backed by VirtualBox), I get the following error:

INFO runner: Running action: #<Vagrant::Action::Builder:0x00000104b60788>

I'm using the following versions of things: Mac OSX 10.9.4 Vagrant 1.6.3 vagrant-proxyconf 1.4.0.dev (installed from Git master) Docker 1.0.1

Hello @okeefm ,

Thank you for reporting!

I am trying to research this problem. But I do not understand what the files structure. Can you show like this?(tree command result is enough)

Vagrantfile
  ├─ docker
      ├─ Vagrantfile

Can you simplify this problem with a smallest set? If so it is easy to understand for me. (ex only one Vagrantfile with a docker image)

If Docker host is CoreOS, please use different anothre branch(see #75)

[okeefm]

Thank you for the prompt response! I've created a smaller Vagrantfile that is exhibiting the same issues:

# Vagrantfile API/syntax version. Don't touch unless you know what you're doing!
VAGRANTFILE_API_VERSION = "2"

Vagrant.configure(VAGRANTFILE_API_VERSION) do |config|
  # All Vagrant configuration is done here.

if Vagrant.has_plugin?("vagrant-proxyconf")
    config.proxy.http     = "http://gatekeeper.mitre.org:80"
    config.proxy.https    = "http://gatekeeper.mitre.org:80"
    config.proxy.no_proxy = "localhost,127.0.0.1,.mitre.org"
  end

  config.vm.define "rootBox" do |rb|
    rb.vm.box = "3scale/docker"
    rb.vm.provision "docker"
    rb.vm.provision "shell", inline:
      "ps aux | grep 'sshd:' | awk '{print $2}' | xargs kill"
  end

  config.vm.define "app" do |app|
    app.vm.provider "docker" do |d|
      d.vagrant_vagrantfile = "./Vagrantfile"
      d.vagrant_machine = "rootBox"
      d.image = "dockerfile/mongodb"
      d.name = "app_db"
      # d.expose = [27017]
      # d.remains_running = true
    end
  end

end

Vagrant is giving the same error: you can see the new stack trace at https://gist.github.com/okeefm/d6683fe98ef6d19497c3

Docker host in this case is Ubuntu 14.04 trusty, from 3scale/docker.

@okeefm Thank you for your simplification!! I reproduced this problem and I understand what occurred. Then I found the way to avoid this problem with Vagranfile separation. Can you try following solution?

Reason

Vagrant-proxyconf can not work for a docker container on a docker host(vagrant box). Because vagrant can not communicate with a docker container by same way as a docker host.

Solution

Your Vagrantfile set vagrant-proxyconf configuration for a both docker container and a docker host. So I have separate Vagrantfile each.

.
├── Vagrantfile
└── rootBox
    └── Vagrantfile

Vagrantfile

VAGRANTFILE_API_VERSION = "2"

Vagrant.configure(VAGRANTFILE_API_VERSION) do |config|
  # All Vagrant configuration is done here.

  config.vm.define "app" do |app|
    app.vm.provider "docker" do |d|
      d.vagrant_vagrantfile = "rootBox/Vagrantfile"
      d.vagrant_machine = "rootBox"
      d.image = "ubuntu:14.04"
      d.name = "app"
    end
  end
end

rootBox/Vagrantfile

# Vagrantfile API/syntax version. Don't touch unless you know what you're doing!
VAGRANTFILE_API_VERSION = "2"

Vagrant.configure(VAGRANTFILE_API_VERSION) do |config|
  # All Vagrant configuration is done here.

  if Vagrant.has_plugin?("vagrant-proxyconf")
    config.proxy.http     = "http://10.0.2.2:13128"
    config.proxy.https    = "http://10.0.2.2:13128"
    config.proxy.no_proxy = "localhost,127.0.0.1,.mitre.org"
  end

  config.vm.define "rootBox" do |rb|
    rb.vm.box = "3scale/docker"
    rb.vm.provision "docker"
    rb.vm.provision "shell", inline:
      "ps aux | grep 'sshd:' | awk '{print $2}' | xargs kill"
  end
end

Result

Then result seems OK.

This solution fixed it, thanks!
