Problems with Vagrant (Write FAQ)

[nemesifier]

GCI students are having recurring problems with vagrant, a FAQ section in the README would help.

I will ask GCI students to report issues they find here.

Instead of only providing installation docs for Ubuntu, install docs for other distro's would be awesome.
I am running Manjaro and I had trouble installing virtualbox properly... I ended up with dowloading virtualbox with sudo pacman -S linux414-virtualbox-host-modules.

A lot of distros have good documentation themselves. For Manjaro please read:

Hello. I followed the steps and installed everything, but when I wrote the command "vagrant up" it shows this error, can i do something about it?

Check if the VT-x is enabled in your bios

1. If you are using a virtual machine, this won't work at all since you can't make vm's in a vm.
2. If vagrant is not able to start, it might be because of Virtualbox. The current version of Vagrant doesn't support Virtualbox 6.1. Download a older version.
3. If it says VT-X (Intel Virtualization Technology) needs to be enabled go to your bios and do it, or else it won't work. It might also be because you have another application installed which utilizes VT-X like VMWare. If you do switch to that or uninstall.

Anyone Working on this ?

As @jvanmelckebeke saying it would be really great to add docks for OS's other than ubuntu (based on ubuntu)

@IAmAMissingColon in this issue, GCI students keep adding the problems they face with installation.
If you see and understand a comment, feel free to fix it! 😄

Hello,
I tried to start the virtual machine from VirtualBox UI, but I receive an error! can I do something about it?

[nemesifier]

@anveshajain19 what error are you getting?

[anveshajain19]

where: supR3HardenedMainInitRuntime what: 4 VERR_VM_DRIVER_VERSION_MISMATCH (-1912) - The installed support driver doesn't match the version of the user.
I've tried :
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo dpkg-reconfigure virtualbox-dkms
sudo dpkg-reconfigure virtualbox
But it didn't help.

[nemesifier]

@anveshajain19 that's something which has to do with either your system, vagrant or virtualbox so I am not sure how much help we can give you on that.

[anveshajain19]

Okay, @nemesisdesign I will try reinstalling them.
