vagrant up hangs at `Acquired process lock: machine-action...`

[hcguersoy]

Vagrant version

```$ vagrant -v
Vagrant 1.9.5

Update 2: Downgrading Vagrant to 1.8.7 everything works fine together with VBox 5.1.22r115126

### Host operating system
MacOS 10.12.5

VirtualBox:

$ VBoxManage --version
5.1.22r115126

Update: Downgraded to VirtualBox `5.0.38r114633` but same behaviour.

### Guest operating system
Tried with `centos/7`, `hashicorp/precise32` and `ubuntu/trusty64`

### Vagrantfile
```ruby
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
  config.vm.box = "ubuntu/trusty64"
end

Debug output

see https://gist.github.com/hcguersoy/678d6a1df8a7aab6adb1ec661532a884

Expected behaviour

A VM should be created in Virtualbox and started up.

Actual behaviour

vagrant up hangs simply at the step

DEBUG environment: Attempting to acquire process-lock: machine-action-60dbf4371ca883950272eca45903fc1a
DEBUG environment: Attempting to acquire process-lock: dotlock
 INFO environment: Acquired process lock: dotlock
 INFO environment: Released process lock: dotlock
 INFO environment: Acquired process lock: machine-action-60dbf4371ca883950272eca45903fc1a

until I stop the vagrant process (CMD & C).

Steps to reproduce

1. vagrant init ubuntu/trusty64
2. vagrant up

Have the same problem. Does anybody know how to fix this?

I had same problem. Downgrade to 1.9.4 help. So looks like it's broken by latest release 1.9.5.

I ran the uninstall tool and then reinstalled after having this issue and it seems okay on 1.9.5 now.

I experienced this today with a fresh install of 1.9.5 and had to downgrade to 1.9.4.

I had the same issue with vagrant 1.9.7.
I then installed 1.8.7 version and then I encountered a different error related to
https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant/issues/5782

and the workaround suggested in
https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant/issues/7970
worked for me.

I had this same issue when upgrading from 1.8.7 to 1.9.7. I tried downgrading to 1.9.4, and still got stuck at "Acquired Access Lock". I then completely uninstalled vagrant and the user data (https://www.vagrantup.com/docs/installation/uninstallation.html), and reinstalled 1.9.7 - everything seams to be working properly now.

I have encountered this with Vagrant 1.9.5 and VirtualBox 5.1.22.

Then I upgraded to latest Vagrant 2.0.0 and VirtualBox 5.1.28 r117968, removing the user data, but the problem persists. :(

[gdubicki]

Ok, I got this resolved. What helped was to UNINSTALL Vagrant 2.0.0 and reinstall it from scratch. DON'T just upgrade it from the previous version - use install script first, remove user data and then install again.

[fatalmind]

Same here: Installed Vagrant 2.0.1 on top of 1.8.x. Vagrant up got stuck. Uninstalled Vagrant (using the uninstall.tool contained in the 2.0.1 distribution), reinstalled. All fine.

OS X, VirtualBox 5.2.6 (My first thought was that the new VirtualBox was the problem—not so).

Hi there,

It looks like this has been resolved within a previously shipped version of Vagrant so I am now closing this issue. If the original issue was not fully resolved, please reopen this issue or create a new one.

Cheers!
