vagrant up failing after upgrade: The box boxname could not be found.

[wizonesolutions]

I went from Vagrant 1.0.x to Vagrant 1.2.1.

When I type vagrant up, it now fails. vagrant halt on a suspended VM works fine.

I get this beaut:

Does anything look wrong with my configuration? I have ensured that vagrant --version shows 1.2.1, I've restarted all terminals, I've uninstalled the rogue vagrant gem that was in RVM (but that wasn't being run from the failing terminal anyway), and I have converted my Vagrantfile configuration to version 2. I checked that the box does indeed appear in vagrant box list (it does). I haven't tried to re-add it because I'm not clear how I would go about that. If it's in vagrant box list, then Vagrant should know about it, no?

So, having done some due diligence, I turn to the issue queue. I hope it's just something stupid I did at some point. That would be the ideal resolution. I'll keep trying stuff in the meantime.

[wizonesolutions]

OK, my existing precise32 box isn't working either in a test directory. (the original boxname doesn't work either for a new VM, so I know it isn't just that existing project)

I'm going to try vagrant box add precise32d http://files.vagrantup.com/precise32.box and then vagrant init precise32d on a fresh directory. I'll see if that VM will boot.

I remember reading in another issue that the new box format is different, and maybe that is burning me. If the new precise32 box works, then I can diff the directories and see if I can discern anything I might be able to fix.

[wizonesolutions]

Works with a fresh box, so it's something in the old boxes. Time to fire up DiffMerge.

[wizonesolutions]

Ah. The new format drops boxes under the virtualbox directory and expects a metadata.json file, which isn't unique at all. It just says

{"provider":"virtualbox"}

So the entirety of my fix was

cd ~/.vagrant.d/boxname
mkdir virtualbox
mv box-disk1.vmdk box.ovf Vagrantfile virtualbox
cd ../working-box
cp virtualbox/metadata.json ../boxname/virtualbox

Some plugin woes to sort out, but that's another topic. Blog post time (once I confirm this isn't detailed in some Really Obvious Spot).

[anatolyg]

Good workaround, validated 6/4/2013, Vagrant 1.2.2

[wizonesolutions]

Yeah, there's a comment on that post that is even easier (vagrant repackage, I think).

[skpabba]

Thanks for the post. Changing into new folder structure helped me as well.
