Troubleshooting

In case of getting the following error:

$ vagrant init cmontemuino/centos7.1.x64-base; vagrant up --provider virtualbox
The box 'cmontemuino/centos7.1.x64-base' could not be found or
could not be accessed in the remote catalog. If this is a private
box on HashiCorp's Atlas, please verify you're logged in via
`vagrant login`. Also, please double-check the name. The expanded
URL and error message are shown below:

URL: ["https://atlas.hashicorp.com/cmontemuino/centos7.1.x64-base"]
Error: error setting certificate verify locations:
  CAfile: /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt
  CApath: none

Then check whether ca-certificates package is installed. Another possibility is you need to create the certs folder, and copy the ca-certificates.crt to it:

$ sudo mkdir -p /etc/pki/tls/certs
$ sudo cp /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt /etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt
