Prior to this commit, the virtualbox synced folder option
`SharedFoldersEnableSymlinksCreate` was always enabled. This commit
introduces a config option and an environment variable which allows
users to configure the option globally or per synced_folder in their
Vagrantfile.
We know that the vm does not exist if we get VBOX_E_OBJECT_NOT_FOUND.
For any other error, this may well be VirtualBox getting confused and it is probably
worth retrying...
VirtualBox has a bug where the IPv6 route is lost on every other
configuration of a host-only network. This is also triggered when a VM
is booted.
To fix this, we test the route-ability of all IPv6 networks, and
reconfigure if necessary. This is very fast but we still only do this if
we have any IPv6 networks.
This should fix the cleaning up of the default VirtualBox dhcpserver,
which we've been fighting with for ages over in #3083. We were checking
for a structure _including_ a netmask, but the driver was not populating
netmask.
fixes#3083
Detect the presence of the default DHCP server that comes in a fresh
VirtualBox install and clean it up to prevent it from colliding with
Vagrant-managed network config.
In order to accomplish this, we:
- add a `remove_dhcp_server` call to the virtualbox driver
- fix dhcp options parsing to allow `:dhcp_{ip,lower,upper}`
configuration options to make it through (so a user can override the
removal behavior with some explicit configuration)
- add the full `:network_name` to the details returned from
`:read_dhcp_servers`, so we can have a durable value to pass to
`:remove_dhcp_server`
Note that we do have to eat one more `VBoxManage list dhcpservers` for
each network interface to support this, but this seemed like a nominal
cost
This is just a refactor, no behavior change.
Instead of stitching together dhcpserver info in the structure returned
from `read_host_only_interfaces`, sprout a new driver method called
`read_dhcp_servers` to return that information separately.
This means that driver clients (well there's really only _one_ client in
`ProviderVirtualBox::Action::Network`) have to do a bit more work to get
interface and DHCP server information.
But this gives us (a) a cleaner and more consistent driver interface and
(b) groundwork for a fix for #3083, which will require interacting with
DHCP servers outside of the context of host-only interfaces.
For FreeBSD guests, Virtualbox can sometimes report the private network
interface IP address as "0.0.0.0". This will cause an invalid NFS
exports file to be generated for FreeBSD and OS X hosts.
Fixed by not allowing Virtualbox to report a guest IP address of
"0.0.0.0".
Previously, we required a host-only interface with a static IP for NFS
to work in VirtualBox, because we needed access to the guest's IP in
order to properly configure mount commands.
After boot, VirtualBox exposes the IP addresses of a guest's network
adapters via the "guestproperty" interface.
This adds support for reading VirtualBox guest properties to the
VirtualBox driver and utilizes that support to prepare NFS settings,
which removes the necessity for a static IP for NFS to work.
In this commit we also start building out scaffolding for unit testing
vbox actions and drivers.
Test plan:
- Prepare a Vagrantfile with the following:
* private network with type: :dhcp
* synced folder with nfs: true
- Boot a VM from this Vagrantfile using the virtualbox provider
- Machine should boot successfully with working synced folder
