Failed to create the host-only adapter

I have the problem with vagrant up on my system. I have the error, you can see below. I have tried reinstall VBox, Vagrant, turned of the firewall, сhecked VBox networking driver and restarted host system, but it`s dont working.

Thanks all for help.

There was an error while executing `VBoxManage`, a CLI used by Vagrant
for controlling VirtualBox. The command and stderr is shown below.

Command: ["hostonlyif", "create"]

Stderr: 0%...

end

if File.file?("#{dir}/puphpet/config-custom.yaml")

data = configValues['vagrantfile']

Vagrant.require_version '>= 1.8.1'

Vagrant.configure('2') do |config|
  eval File.read("#{dir}/puphpet/vagrant/Vagrantfile-#{data['target']}")
end
Solution

  • I did vagrant up on my host!

    After many tries I was reinstall my Windows. The need Virtual Machine host driver (VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter in Windows Networking) was installing only on "clean" system that very curiously for me.

    Vagrant also need Windows PowerShell version older then 3, but Win7 default using 2. You need update Windows Net Framework for install 3 and older version on Win7.

    Good luck!
