Getting Permission Denied on the hosts file

[Patty O'Hara]

Hello - Im trying to set up an enviroment on a Windows 10 host and am getting this error on vagrant up...

/.vagrant.d/gems/gems/vagrant-hostsupdater-1.0.1/lib/vagrant-hostsupdater/HostsUpdater.rb:85:in `initialize': Permission denied @ rb_sysopen - C:/Windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts (Errno::EACCES)

I havent been able to find any solutions to this one. Any ideas?

Hello

The error mean your user doesn't have access to update that file.

Couple of options.

1. don't use the plugin host updater.

vagrant plugin list

vagrant plugin uninstall <name>

2. Make sure your user without elevating privileges have access to read write to:

C:/Windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts 

Let me know if this helps.

Thanks

Alvaro.
