Debug output

https://gist.github.com/xmunoz/7fae9f013b268e2032139ac3a238c5d8

Expected behavior

Vagrant should detect and download the correct version of VBox Guest Additions on the guest VM, and succeed in mounting the shared folders.

Actual behavior

Vagrant fails to download newer Virtualbox Guest Additions on the guest, and mounting shared folders fails.

Steps to reproduce

1. vagrant plugin install vagrant-vbguest
2. vagrant up

Maybe? I also found that downgrading to 2.2.10 fixed the problem for me.

I am also affected by this. I am on Ubuntu 18.04, with virtualbox version 5.2.42-dfsg-0~ubuntu1.18.04.1 and with Vagrant installed from Wolfgang Faust's PPA. 1:2.2.10 works; 1:2.2.11 does not.

I downgraded by running:

$ sudo apt install vagrant=1:2.2.10

This issue is resolved by https://github.com/hashicorp/vagrant/pull/12037. It will be available in the next release of Vagrant. I'm going to go ahead and close this issue. Cheers 🎆

[xmunoz]

Awesome! Would that be v2.2.14 @soapy1 ? When would it become generally available from https://releases.hashicorp.com/vagrant/?

[chrisroberts]

@xmunoz The release build is currently in process and should be available in an hour or or two
