virtualbox-4.3.10-vagrant-1.5.2-fix
If you are running Virtualbox 4.3.10 , Vagrant 1.5.2 and run into the following error on a Mac OSX mavericks host -
default: /vagrant => /xxxxx/xxxxx/xxxxx
Failed to mount folders in Linux guest. This is usually because
the "vboxsf" file system is not available. Please verify that
the guest additions are properly installed in the guest and
can work properly. The command attempted was:
mount -t vboxsf -o uid=`id -u vagrant`,gid=`getent group vagrant | cut -d: -f3` /vagrant /vagrant
mount -t vboxsf -o uid=`id -u vagrant`,gid=`id -g vagrant` /vagrant /vagrant
The fix is as follows: -
$ wget https://www.virtualbox.org/download/testcase/VBoxGuestAdditions_4.3.11-93070.iso
$ sudo cp VBoxGuestAdditions_4.3.11-93070.iso /Applications/VirtualBox.app/Contents/MacOS/VBoxGuestAdditions.iso
Then install the vagrant-vbguest plugin -
vagrant plugin install vagrant-vbguest
Then -
vagrant destroy -f && vagrant up
And you should smile with pure joy \o/
