I'm having this error on a windows 8, latest versions of vagrant 1.7.4 and virtualbox 5.0.10 installed:
D:\myproject>vagrant up

An error occurred while downloading the remote file. The error
message, if any, is reproduced below. Please fix this error and try
again.
Couldn't open file /myproject/base
It seems like the path is invalid, this is windows but the path seems to be a linux system.
Same thing happen if I do
vagrant init
vagrant up
In a new folder.
This download the box succesfully:
vagrant box add puphpet/ubuntu1404-x64
You must be modify vagrantfile.You have to make your own name instead of the base package or you should run it first vagrant init {boxname}
