Packer-Templates - Packer Build - Failed to retrieve the pre-configuration file #106

Closed Siya360 closed 1 year ago

Siya360 commented 1 year ago

Hi, when trying to build a box with Packer, it first stalls at "==> virtualbox-iso: Waiting for SSH to become available..."; I believe it's running preseed configs in the background. An hour later, it displays the error: "Failed to retrieve the reconfiguration file. The file needed for reconfiguration could not be retrieved from HTTP://10.0.2.2:8029/preseed.cfg. The installation will proceed in non-automated mode.

Please advise of a valid URL for the preseed file, or the work around this huddle.

Came here looking for info on this exact same problem! Seems like some part of the configuration is out of date...
