NFS fails on El Capitan

[Andreas H Meier]

Host: MacOsX 10.11.4, tried both on MacPro1,1 and newest MacBookPro Retina

Vagrant: 1.8.1

VirtualBox: 5.0.16 r105871

Guest: tried multiple versions of ubuntu, both base boxes (ubuntu-trusty64) as well as provisioned boxes like Homestead/Laravel

Issue: guest works fine as long as shared volumes are not mounted via nfs. When declaring type: 'nfs' the "vagrant up" command hangs for minutes while trying to mount the volume and then fails to mount with the following error message:

The following SSH command responded with a non-zero exit status.

Vagrant assumes that this means the command failed!

mount -o 'rw,vers=3,tcp,fsc,actimeo=2' 192.168.10.1:'/Volumes/Files/Users/username' /home/vagrant/username

Stdout from the command:

Stderr from the command:

mount.nfs: Connection timed out

The VM is running, but the shared folders are not there.

I have tried with and without nfs mount_options, the problem persists.

I have turned SIP off and on, the problem persists.

etc/hosts contains localhost 127.0.0.1 (was brought up as a possible cause)

no firewall active (was brought up as a possible cause)

Apple console does not provide an error message, the mount.nfs command just idles.

Has anybody figured out how to fix this?

hello,

Apple have some security issues

ie. not share your home

not share nested folder ie  /folder /folder/this /folder/this/too

So, try to share a different folder than your home.

Alvaro.

Good thought, Alvaro,

but I have tried multiple sub folders within my home directory, and I get the same problem. I will give it a try with a different volume and see what happens.

Hello,

Try to mount 1 folder first, that is not your home directory.

Then move 2 folders that are not your home and are not nested.

Tried it. Loaded non-home directory folder. Same problem. Hangs at the "==> default: Mounting NFS shared folders… “ prompt.

There's some other option, forgot.  NFS has sort of not worked well since Lion or before Lion.  Apple never cared, and still don't care.

When I mounted using NFS post Lion, I think had to add the reerved port, i.e. resvport, option.
