Running 1.8 on Windows7pro, vagrant seems to be getting confused re: backslashes in shared folder definitions. Worked under 1.7.4 and earlier.
- I'm trying to mount a remote \\host.domain\path_here onto /some/local/path in the VM - previously, we had to escapebackslashes and double them up ala \\\\host.domain\\path_here in our vagrantfiles - now this confuses heck out of vagrant with an error ala: There was an error while executing `VBoxManage`, a CLI used by Vagrant for controlling VirtualBox. The command and stderr is shown below. Command: ["sharedfolder", "add", "2850746f-ba92-4866-b3be-7871613e20b0", "--name", "somenamehere", "--hostpath", "\\\\?\\\\\\host.domain\\path_here"] Stderr: VBoxManage.exe: error: Shared folder path '\\?\\\host.domain\path_here' is not absolute VBoxManage.exe: error: Details: code E_INVALIDARG (0x80070057), component SharedFolder, interface ISharedFolder, callee IUnknown VBoxManage.exe: error: Context: "CreateSharedFolder(Bstr(name).raw(), Bstr(hostpath).raw(), fWritable, fAutoMount)" at line 1015 of file VBoxManageMisc.cpp Worked on 1.7.4, fails on 1.8 so one of them seems to have a bug. Questions: - is 1.8 broken here ? - how do we specify a UNC name as the target to mount via our Vagrantfile ? - if I mounted the UNC path as a drive under windows ala S:\something, how would I specify that Using cygwin if that matters... -- This mailing list is governed under the HashiCorp Community Guidelines - https://www.hashicorp.com/community-guidelines.html.
