Vagrant and VirtualBox

Install Vagrant and VirtualBox

Provider can be VirtualBox or Qemu, choose the one that fits into your environment:

On ESXi VM, VirtualBox seems not to be supported, therefore use qemu.

1. Install VirtualBox

Visit https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Linux_Downloads. Find the one that fits into your environment. For me, I am using Ubuntu 22.04, so download .deb file.

wget https://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/7.0.8/virtualbox-7.0_7.0.8-156879~Ubuntu~jammy_amd64.deb

Then use dpkg (or yum for CentOS), for installing the package.

sudo dpkg -i virtualbox-7.0_7.0.8-156879~Ubuntu~jammy_amd64.deb

When this gets you depdenency errors, fix broken using:

sudo apt --fix-broken install

Add this current user to vboxusers group

sudo usermod -aG vboxusers $USER

Then verify the installation

virtualbox --version

1. Install Qemu

sudo apt-get install -y qemu-kvm libvirt-daemon-system libvirt-clients bridge-utils

2. Install Vagrant

sudo apt-get install vagrant
