NFS error when vagrant up

Question

I am having this error everytime i vagrant up the customer environment:

    NFS requires a host-only network to be created.
    Please add a host-only network to the machine (with either DHCP or a
    static IP) for NFS to work.

Here is the message when i try to vagrant up. The error message came out right after this:

    manager: Attempting graceful shutdown of VM...
    manager: Checking if box 'centos/7' is up to date...

I have done some researchs and seen similar cases, but most of the answer pointed out that there's lacking a config.vm.network in vagrantfile. Im totally sure that is not the case here, since i have checked the vagrantfile already, and my colleagues can vagrant up just fine in their PCs.

For now, i have tried to reinstall virtualbox (5.1.30), vagrant (2.0.0), but it does not work. Please help

Answer 1

I have figured out my question:

basically something in my Virtualbox got screwed up and the host only network interface was being created but somehow lost registration with virtualbox. Here are the things that i did:

• Check all the vagrant plugin that is needed (often required in vagrantfile)
• Delete all the boxes that created by vagrant.
• Delete all the NAT and host-only network card and recreate them.
• Change the Ipv4 address of host-only network to the correct one of the box you want to create (depend on what you config in the vagrantfile). I also have to disable the DHCP server in this case.

Hope this can help some of the similar cases i saw in the internet. This is a known issue for vagrant and virtualbox.
