11/25/2023 0 Comments Virtualbox shared folder![]() I was hoping that the upgrade to the latest VirtualBox (6) would solve the problem but, sadly, this version is even worse - Ubuntu cranks SLOWLY through the boot process, and it's been taking so long that I haven't even let it finish after trying several times. From too-long searching online, I'm pretty sure this problem has been caused from doing dist-upgrade to Ubuntu (which I do regularly) because I've changed nothing in the Vagrant/VBox setup for a long time. My Vagrant/VirtualBox setup had been working fine for probably at last a year, and I never wanted to "upgrade" because I've been through this mess before when "upgrading" to newer versions. I downloaded the matching Guest Additions ISO version for the VBox versions, and loaded the Guest Additions ISO into the virtual optical drive in VirtualBox (as well as specified _path = "VBoxGuestAdditions_5.x.x.iso" in my Vagrantfile. I have the vagrant-vbguest plugin installed. Then a final startup message stated that the Virtualbox version was at 5.2 and the Guest Additions version was 5.1.30 - so at times I've gotten a total of three different versions of Guest Additions reported. Trying 5.2.24 and 5.2.26 yielded messages upon Vagrant startup stating that Guest Additions on the host were reported as 5.0.18 but on the guest were reported as 5.2.24 (or. To try to fix this problem, I upgraded Vagrant to the latest version, and then tried upgrading and downgrading VirtualBox from as low as 5.0.18 (generates an error on vagrant up) to as high as the latest (6.0.4). At some point in the past six weeks, on vagrant up Guest Additions started being reported as different versions on the host and guest, and changes I would make to my synced files from the Windows side would not always be realized on Ubuntu. For many months I had been successfully using VirtualBox 5.xx.xx along with Vagrant 2.xx (don't remember the rest of the version numbers) on a Windows 10 host with Ubuntu 16 guest.
