John Sirois commented on AURORA-1663:
-------------------------------------
It does work properly, although there is a known issue at the moment.
The workaround I
[found|https://github.com/dotless-de/vagrant-vbguest/issues/95#issuecomment-163777475]
was to add `/etc/init/vboxadd.conf` with contents:
{noformat}
description "VirtualBox Linux Additions"
start on runlevel [2345]
stop on runlevel [!2345]
respawn
exec /sbin/rcvboxadd start
{noformat}
That seemed like too much detail for the docs though since this is likely a
transient bug that will change with point releases of either the plugin of
VirtualBox.
My doc update does point out the warning is likely harmless but provides
vagrant-vbguest as an option to try.
I don't see a way to have our Aurora image compatible with all user's
VirtualBox version for the guest additions.
If you have other ideas, I'm all ears.

> Components: Deploy
> Environment: Windows, VirtualBox5
> Reporter: Vitaly Stakhovsky
> Assignee: John Sirois
> Priority: Minor

> I follow the instructions on the 'Getting Started' page for Windows. If I use
> VirtualBox 5, I am getting a warning:
> The guest additions on this VM do not match the installed version of
> VirtualBox!
> ...
> Guest Additions Version: 4.3.36
> VirtualBox Version: 5.0
> Apparently, this is because the apache-aurora/dev-environment Vagrant box is
> now used instead of ubuntu/trusty64
