v2.0.15 VMware Fusion Pro 8.1.0 hangs: Waiting for HGFS kernel module to load... #48
Comments
This issue is affecting me too - I've attempted grabbing the latest VMWare Tools and trying those, unfortunately the result is exactly the same :-( |
I found this one: hashicorp/vagrant#6775 |
If using the latest VMware Tools (10.x from Fusion 8.x and higher) they are using Fuse for HGFS instead of the HGFS kernel module. This definitely confuses Vagrant. |
I'm having major problems with this on Ubuntu 16.04 |
Mitchell is working on a patch, see hashicorp/vagrant#6775 Let's see if it only will work with open-vm-tools. |
@StefanScherer thank you for alerting us about the work on a patch! |
So this commit shows how to do it cbednarski/packer-ubuntu@7545187...c0c2737, right? |
I've just tested the VMware Vagrant plugin 4.0.9 and the boxcutter/ubuntu1404 box v2.0.17 already works, so no change needed in this repo. Tested both on OSX and Windows 7. |
Hm, but boxcutter/ubuntu1604 times out

FWIW I was having this problem but 1604 is working after switching to the following versions:
|
@boztek Thanks for sharing. So the 2.0.18 box works still using VMware tools? I'm still learning more details. |
Haven't looked into details myself - just found a combo that works for me until vagrant 1.8.4 lands which seems to have a fix in the queue. |
I'm still seeing this; but I'm on
Here's the full error, ending with:

Can you try:
You should then get the latest version (4.0.10 as of writing this post) |

I've seen that there are VMware boxes again with v2.0.15. But spinning up the boxcutter/ubuntu hangs using VMware Fusion Pro 8.1.0, Vagrant 1.8.1 at the HGFS kernel module.
A
vagrant ssh
works so I had a look inside the VMThis blog post https://dantehranian.wordpress.com/2014/08/19/vagrant-vmware-resolving-waiting-for-hgfs-kernel-module-timeouts/ mentions that we have to add
But this doesn't seem to work. Plenty of work(around) was done here https://www.vagrantup.com/docs/vmware/kernel-upgrade.html and here hashicorp/vagrant#4362
This is really a pain point using VMware with Vagrant.
Any ideas?
