Vagrant comes with support out of the box for [VirtualBox](https://www.virtualbox.org),
|
2013-09-03 18:08:28 +00:00
|
|
|
a free, cross-platform consumer virtualization product.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The VirtualBox provider is compatible with VirtualBox versions 4.0.x, 4.1.x,
|
2016-07-22 17:40:19 +00:00
|
|
|
4.2.x, 4.3.x, 5.0.x, and 5.1.x. Other versions are unsupported and the provider
|
|
|
|
will display an error message. Please note that beta and pre-release versions
|
|
|
|
of VirtualBox are not supported and may not be well-behaved.
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
VirtualBox must be installed on its own prior to using the provider, or
|
|
|
|
the provider will display an error message asking you to install it.
|
|
|
|
VirtualBox can be installed by [downloading](https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads)
|
|
|
|
a package or installer for your operating system and using standard procedures
|
|
|
|
to install that package.
