Before create vm, please, check if landrush can running without error:

vagrant landrush start

Then, create the machine vagrant up

To test if ldap is ready execute ldapsearch -x -LLL -v -h ldap.vagrant.dev -D cn=admin,dc=vagrant,dc=dev -w admin -b dc=vagrant,dc=dev. The return should be similar as:

ldap_initialize( ldap://ldap.vagrant.dev )
filter: (objectclass=*)
requesting: All userApplication attributes
dn: dc=vagrant,dc=dev
dc: vagrant
objectClass: top
objectClass: domain
description: Tree root

dn: cn=admin,dc=vagrant,dc=dev
cn: admin
objectClass: top
objectClass: person
objectClass: organizationalPerson
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
uid: admin
sn: admin
userPassword:: e1NIQX0wRFBpS3VOSXJyVm1EOElVQ3V3MWhReE5xWmM9

After the machine is running you can access it by:

• http://ldap.vagrant.dev/phpldapadmin
• ldapsearch -x -h ldap.vagrant.dev -D "cn=admin,dc=vagrant,dc=dev" -w admin -b "dc=vagrant,dc=dev" "(cn=*)"

To change the ldap information, please see puppet/data/common.yaml

vagrant up --debug &> vagrant.log

Discovery guest machine ip

vagrant ssh -c "ip addr show eth1 | grep 'inet' | grep 'eth1' | sed -e 's/^.*inet //' -e 's/\/.*$//'"

Hostname is listed in DNS (landrush), but will not resolve

If the landrush is show the correct ip through vagrant landrush ls, but with other commands, like ping, it is not resolving on OSX, please, restart mDNSResponder: sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponder

Failed to mount folders in Linux guest. This is usually because the "vboxsf" file system is not available.

Step by step:

If you not have vbguest plugin, install it: vagrant plugin install vagrant-vbguest

Run Vagrant: vagrant up

Login on VM: vagrant ssh

In the guest: sudo ln -s /opt/VBoxGuestAdditions-4.3.10/lib/VBoxGuestAdditions /usr/lib/VBoxGuestAdditions

Back on the host, reload Vagrant: vagrant reload
