Hello,


Getting a horific VBoxManage error while at Booting VM stage.
Wondering where to find help for this situation.
Do not know where to look for help.
Is this a Vagrant or VirtualBox ?
Which forum should this question be sent too?



My goal is to setup Varying Vagrant Vagrants (VVV) Wordpress Local Developmet server.


Meanwhile, successfully installed another random vagrant box and was able to run both vagrant up and vagrant ssh commands on that box,

It seems like vagrant is setup properly.

Any clues appreciated.
Thank you.


Output of VVV listed below.

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

Command: ["startvm", "d8aa572a-8e94-4e0c-80af-8bc51a667875", "--type", "headless"]

Check out vccw.cc for a good Wordpress Vagrant setup. Flywheel also has an interesting setup though it targets Windows/macOS and not Linux users.

Thanks for reply.

The reason I am investigating Vagrant is because I have been using Local by Flywheel for about six months now and it seems to run slowly on my PC.
I am hoping a Vagrant based solution has better performance.
What is your experience?

Already tried the solutions listed below but ironically each of them is failing at exactly the same way, which is "Booting VM" stage.
  1. Seravo
  2. VCCW
  3. VVV
So I wonder if there is something wrong with my PC's VirtualBox network setup.
How can Windows 10 networking for Virtualbox be reset to factory defaults?
I remember changing it while doing Hyper-V testing on a prior project.
Have a good weekend.

Some of the trouble maybe because Local by Flywheel also uses Virtualbox under the hood. What you may want to try searching for is a Docker-compose WordPress setup because Docker coexists better with Hyper-V and won't conflict with Virtualbox. I have a feeling if you uninstalled and reinstalled VirtualBox it would reset the network settings.
