Hi,

I have installed Vagrant 1.8.7 and VirtualBox 5.1.8-1.

I am getting following error while bringing up the VM. My setup was working previously with older versions of Virtual Box and Vagrant but it broke after that. I tried multiple uninstall and install of both Virtual Box and Vagrant but I am still getting the following error. I also deleted .vagrant.d .VirtualBox directories from Windows home directory.

----
There was an error while executing `VBoxManage`, a CLI used by Vagrant
for controlling VirtualBox. The command and stderr is shown below.

Command: ["startvm", "e79bfe69-b924-4940-9eaa-69a000e690db", "--type", "headless"]

Stderr: VBoxManage.exe: error: Failed to open/create the internal network 'HostInterfaceNetworking-VirtualBox Host-Only
Ethernet Adapter #2' (VERR_INTNET_FLT_IF_NOT_FOUND).
VBoxManage.exe: error: Failed to attach the network LUN (VERR_INTNET_FLT_IF_NOT_FOUND)
VBoxManage.exe: error: Details: code E_FAIL (0x80004005), component ConsoleWrap, interface IConsole
----

Could someone please help me with this error?

Hello

Is always good test a default box

mkdir precise64
cd precise64
vagrant init -m hashicorp/precise64
vagrant up

if this works, then could be an issue on the Vagrantifle you are using.

Can you test and share your Vagrantfile ?

It seems be an error on networks. If you can comment out the network part and test, you should be able to find whats causing this problem.

Alvaro.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

I tested as you suggested and I still got the error. I have attached the vagrant file here for reference. Below is the error message I got.

Hello.

This happened to be too in Dell XPS 15.

Stderr: VBoxManage.exe: error: VT-x is disabled in the BIOS for all CPU modes (VERR_VMX_MSR_ALL_VMX_DISABLED)

Check if there is a BIOS update. If you feel confortable, you should apply it.

Update Virtualbox or Rollback. In my computer I had to skip one.

Basically I had Virtualization enabled on BIOS, did VirtualBox update and had the sane issue. Had to skip one version since couldnt find a better fix.

Hope this helps.

Alvaro.
