BSD-based guests do not support VirtualBox shared folders. This is a
common source of confusion in Vagrant. This new error clearly explains
that this is not a bug in Vagrant and provides instructions on how to
disable them.
These changes have been validated against the following guest systems:
- Debian 7 and 8
- Ubuntu 12.04, 14.04 and 16.04
- Fedora 21 and 23
- CentOS 7
- OracleLinux 7
- Scientific Linux 7
At the moment, the pip setup (via get-pip.py script) is not working for
RHEL6-like systems (CentOS 6.6, OracleLinux 6.5, Scientific Linux 6),
because Python 2.6 has been deprecated and is no longer supported by
Python core team. I consider this limitation with low priority in
Vagrant context.
The `:pip` install_mode is currently not implemented for the following
platforms:
- OpenSUSE
- ArchLinux
- FreeBSD
Known Issue: By using get-pip.py script, any previous pip installation
will be most probably overrided. This could be an issue for Python
developers who would prefer to keep their base box setup untouched. In
future iteration, it could be possible to choose to reinstall/upgrade
pip or not. issue for Python developers who would prefer to keep their

Resolve GH-6654
Resolve GH-7167 as the `version` option is now considered to select the
version of Ansible to be installed.
With this change, the presence of Ansible configuration files (like
playbook file, inventory path, galaxy role file, etc.) is no longer
performed by the `config` classes, but by the `provisioner` classes
(at the beginning of the provision command).
This change fixes several issues:
- Resolve#6984 as `provision` method are only executed when remote
(ssh) communication with the guest machine is possible.
- Resolve#6763 in a better way than 4e451c6 initially did.
- Improve the general provisioner speed since the `config` checks are
actually triggered by many vagrant actions (e.g. `destroy`,...), and
can also be triggered multiple times during a vagrant run (e.g. on
callback request made by the machine provider).
Unlike the former `config`-based checks, the provision action won't
collect all the invalid options, but only report the first invalid
option found and abort the execution.
Some unit tests were not implemented yet to save my scarce "open source
contribution time" for other important issues, but they should be done
at last via GH-6633.
This commit separates the scratch and output directory creation from the
main package middleware into its own PackageSetupFolders middleware.
Additionally, the validation that ensures an output file does not exist
is moved into a validation function that can be shared across multiple
methods.
This refactor permits a pre-flight check to ensure box packaging would
be successful before actually stopping the VM.
Fixes GH-7351
With this change, the `raw_arguments` and `raw_ssh_args` options are:
- STILL automatically converted as an Array when they are set a String
(no behaviour change)
- rejected if they are not of Array data type otherwise
Additional Notes:
- the 'as_array' tiny helper has been removed since it was no longer
used.
- there is for now no deeper validation (i.e. verifying that the Array
elements are only *String* objects)
This is required because the Chef Server almost always needs a node name to
interact. This will default to the hostname, but that's always going to be
`vagrant.vm`, which will collide easily.
This generates a random hostname with `vagrant-` as the prefix and stores the
result in the machine's data directory.
With this change, the existing host-based Ansible provisioner is
refactored to share a maximum of code with this new guest-based Ansible
provisioner.
At this stage of development, the existing unit tests are intentionally
modified as little as possible, to keep safe the existing funtionalities.
Other issues resolved by this changeset:
- Display a warning when running from a Windows host [GH-5292]
- Do not run `ansible-playbook` in verbose mode when the `verbose` option
is set to an empty string.
Changed the name of the error LinuxRDesktopNotFound to
LinuxRDPClientNotFound and re-worded error text in
templates/locales/en.yml to include `xfreerdp` when listing supported
RDP clients.
This allows Vagrant to calculate if a container's arguments (such as the run
arguments) have changed in the Vagrantfile since the original run.
Fixes GH-3055
If the Vagrantfile has some kind of error, display not only
its path and the exception message, but also the originating
line number and exception class.
Also log the full backtrace when the error is in a provider
block, just as it is done when it's outside a provider block.
Add the word "flag" to the phrase "or use the `--provision` flag", which
is displayed when "vagrant up" is run for a VM that's already been
provisioned.
Importing a base box from the local file system currently outputs 'Downloading: file://...' which is more accurate now by presenting it as: 'Unpacking necessary files from: file://...'.
Fixes#5386.
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 commit finally removes all traces of VirtualBox defaults from
Vagrant core. Vagrant now completely relies on its automated provider
detection to pick the best and most relevant provider that is available
on the system and for a specific development environment.
A "vagrant up" on one development environment might prefer VirtualBox,
another might prefer Docker. As a result of this commit (plus the few
prior), the developer doesn't need to know anymore and doesn't need to
specify a `--provider` flag. Vagrant just figures out the correct
provider.
Yay. :)
