I am getting this error when trying to run the "vagrant up" terminal command:
There are errors in the configuration of this machine. Please fix the following errors and try again:
*A box must be specified.
In my Homestead/.vagrant/machines/default/virtualbox
folder, there is no file there, so I'm assuming that is what it's referring to when it says a box must be specified, however I don't know how to include a box as this is my first time using vagrant, and I've searched online with no resolve.
Anyone have a solution to this?
EDIT (Vagrantfile):
require 'json'
require 'yaml'
VAGRANTFILE_API_VERSION = "2"
confDir = $confDir ||= File.expand_path("~/.homestead")
homesteadYamlPath = confDir + "/Homestead.yaml"
homesteadJsonPath = confDir + "/Homestead.json"
afterScriptPath = confDir + "/after.sh"
aliasesPath = confDir + "/aliases"
require File.expand_path(File.dirname(__FILE__) + '/scripts/homestead.rb')
Vagrant.configure(VAGRANTFILE_API_VERSION) do |config|
if File.exists? aliasesPath then
config.vm.provision "file", source: aliasesPath, destination: "~/.bash_aliases"
end
if File.exists? homesteadYamlPath then
Homestead.configure(config, YAML::load(File.read(homesteadYamlPath)))
elsif File.exists? homesteadJsonPath then
Homestead.configure(config, JSON.parse(File.read(homesteadJsonPath)))
end
if File.exists? afterScriptPath then
config.vm.provision "shell", path: afterScriptPath
end
end
Inside the homestead directory, you have to run the command bash init.sh
.
This will generate the Homestead.yaml
file (and after.sh
and aliases
) inside your home directory ( ~
).
If you are changing Homestead.yaml
again, you have to re-run bash init.sh
again. It will ask for overwrite, say yes.
(also, be sure that the directory for folders: - map:
exists)
Fixed this by fixing my file paths in the homestead.yaml. When I made the installs in the terminal, a .homestead folder was being create outside of the main Homestead folder, which is what was causing my problems. But after changing the paths inside that .homestead/homestead.yaml to the same ones in my Homestead/homestead.yaml, the problem no longer persisted.
Use homestead up
instead of vagrant up
, if you are using homestead package. It already knows where all files are and will up you VM easily.
