I've this error . any ideas?

[hmaciasc]

Ubuntu 14.04.4 version has been replaced with 14.04.5, therefore change name and sha2 lines in file application-server.iso to continue.

Line 4 "PACKER_BOX_NAME": "ubuntu-14.04.5-server-amd64", Line 42 "iso_checksum": "dde07d37647a1d2d9247e33f14e91acb10445a97578384896b4e1d985f754cc1",

Hope it helps.

@hmaciasc

I changed the lines as per your suggestion. It did get me a bit further, but I've now run into the following error. Any suggestions?

Looks like your VM is broken, I would try deleting it and downloading a fresh one running the same command. It worked for me anyways.

[RomelTorres]

After changing the name and the sha it downloads but it does not build anymore:

==> virtualbox-iso: Starting the virtual machine... ==> virtualbox-iso: Error starting VM: VBoxManage error: VBoxManage: error: The virtual machine 'ubuntu-14.04.5-server-amd64' has terminated unexpectedly during startup because of signal 6 ==> virtualbox-iso: VBoxManage: error: Details: code NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005), component MachineWrap, interface IMachine ==> virtualbox-iso: Unregistering and deleting virtual machine... ==> virtualbox-iso: Deleting output directory...

Coudl anyone give me a hand?

This question is very old, but I'll answer anyway: Delete the VM entirely and start over.
