Can't download boxes on Windows 10

[kacpersaw]

Hello,

I have problem with vagrant on fresh Windows 10.
I create vagrant file with vagrant init ubuntu/trusty64
Now when i run vagrant with vagrant up
I got this:

Bringing machine 'default' up with 'virtualbox' provider...
==> default: Box 'ubuntu/trusty64' could not be found. Attempting to find and install...
default: Box Provider: virtualbox
default: Box Version: >= 0
The box 'ubuntu/trusty64' could not be found or
could not be accessed in the remote catalog. If this is a private
box on HashiCorp's Atlas, please verify you're logged in via
`vagrant login`. Also, please double-check the name. The expanded
URL and error message are shown below:
URL: ["https://atlas.hashicorp.com/ubuntu/trusty64"]
Error:

This problem is not only for ubuntu/trusty64 when I init vagrant with hashicorp/precise32 I get the same error :(
I have virtualbox and cygwin installed.

Thanks for help :)

Hi @kacpersaw

Thank you for opening an issue and I am sorry you cannot download boxes. Can you please share your Vagrantfile and the version of Vagrant you are using?

I have the exact same problem with Vagrant 1.8.1.

For me the problem was I did not have Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable installed. I figured this out by trying to run curl and got the error “The program can’t start because MSVCR100.dll is missing from your computer.”. After installing the latest version of the c++ redist everything worked.

I was on a fresh install of windows 10, vagrant, virtualbox and the latest version of curl 64bit.

curl is embedded by vagrant and is placed at "C:\HashiCorp\Vagrant\embedded\bin/curl.EXE" but I still get a error.
Here's a screenshot of output after running VAGRANT_LOG=info vagrant box add ubuntu/trusty64:

@sethvargo I have Vagrant 1.8.1 but I installed Microsoft Visual c++ Redistributable (x86 it's very important because with x64 it's not working but you can have x64 and x86 installed) like @jeremywhittington said and now it's working!

FYI the VC++ needed is the 2010 version. here is the link:

Just spent a couple hours banging my head against this myself today.

Another horrible workaround if you're using git bash:

cp /mingw64/bin/curl.exe /c/HashiCorp/Vagrant/embedded/bin/curl.exe

I hope there will be a better solution in the actual installer in a future release.
