Vagrant stopped working on my Windows 7 Enterprise setup

[Scott Johnson]

I have been using my Windows 7 enterprise based Vagrant setup for two weeks now.  It uses Vagrant 1.18, Git for Windows, and VirtualBox.  I left it running and was happily using the service it provides.  Then I tried to use "vagrant ssh" to connect and I got an error.  I soon found that no vagrant commands work from Git Bash or CMD.  Focusing on CMD I am baffled that I now get a stacktrace whenever I try to run a vagrant command.  

I posted the issue to StackOverflow.  The callstack is listed there.

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/36221690/vagrant-stopped-working-access-denied

Can anyone read the Ruby(?) callstack and give me something to go on?  My best theory is that my employer changed the configuration of the machine as part of a security update.  If the error could just tell me which directory or which file it was trying to access then I'd at least have a lead.

Thanks,

Scott

Hello,

This error:

Access is denied. 

Seems your user can't access the vagrant installation.

Did you install as your user? right click run as administrator or nomal insall?

Other option can be anti virus, can you disable it for a bit?

Can you make your use the owner of c:\HashiCorp?

Thanks

Alvaro.

Thanks for the reply.  I uninstalled the latest Microsoft Security updates and it started to work again.  Then the updates were automatically restored.  

So I gave up on my Windows use of Vagrant in my corporate environment.

Hello,

In enterprise world is something called Standard Operating Environment

So basically what you have found is that Vagrant is not included in there in your company. I would suggest to open a ticket and let them to know the business requirement and ask them to review and approve the application.

Vagrant and vagrant-installer are open source, and free of cost to use, so perhaps they can have a fast-track to add this application.

good luck!

Thanks

Alvaro.
