is vagrant-winnfsd compatible with windows 8 #9

mwalczak · 2014-03-17T13:27:26Z

Hi,
I've tried to start this plugin working under windows 8, but with no success.
On win7 there are files added to vagrant/embedded/bin path, but under win8 files are in user/vagrant.d dir.
I don't know whether that's the case, but when I try to enable nfs for my vagrant/puphpet project nfs fails to start with:
The capability 'nfs_installed' could not be found. This is an internal error
that users should never see. Please report a bug.

Can you help me to solve this problem?

comexpertise · 2014-03-17T14:23:48Z

Hi,

Same error for me ("vagrand reload" work if "nfs" value set to false in VagrantFile...):

vagrant.exe reload
The capability 'nfs_installed' could not be found. This is an internal error that users should never see. Please report a bug.

VagrantFile:

#config.vm.share_folder("symfony", "/vagrant", "./", :nfs => (RUBY_PLATFORM =~ /linux/ or RUBY_PLATFORM =~ /darwin/))
config.vm.share_folder("symfony", "/vagrant", "./", :nfs => true)

Box setup: https://github.com/irmantas/symfony2-vagrant

Os : Win 8.0 x64
Vagrant : v1.5.1

Lefaux · 2014-03-22T14:28:18Z

Same error here, but with Win7 - vagrant 1.5.1

mikehaertl · 2014-03-26T14:03:27Z

I have the same error on Windows 8, Vagrant 1.5.1

GM-Alex · 2014-03-26T14:05:04Z

At the moment I have no Win 8, could you try it with a lower vagrant version, maybe the problem is not the OS, but the vagrant version.

mikehaertl · 2014-03-26T14:23:51Z

Thanks, it really works with Vagrant 1.4.3. You think you can fix it for 1.5.1?

GM-Alex · 2014-03-26T14:28:27Z

Thanks for your feedback I will see that I fix it.

nebojsa-simic · 2014-03-27T10:46:56Z

i can confirm the issue.
i had the plugin working on 1.4.3 and when I updated to 1.5.1 it stopped working with the same error.
Reinstalling the plugin did not help.

OS is Win7 and I don't think the OS Version is the problem.

dmitrii-baranov-tg · 2014-03-30T14:03:00Z

Confirming:

Windows 7 Home Premium x64 - worked like a charm with vagrant 1.4.3. After update to 1.5.1 it stopped...

UPD: 1.5.0 doesn't work also

GM-Alex · 2014-04-01T08:44:15Z

Bad news, I can't reproduce the issue. It works for me with version 1.5.1 and 1.5.2dev on Windows 7. Could somebody provide some more information? Maybe then I'm able to find it.

dmitrii-baranov-tg · 2014-04-01T08:47:33Z

One detail to this is that I cannot see flickering winnfsd window anymore, when using 1.5.
I can install it again together with the plugin and test if a process winnfsd is beaing created...

GM-Alex · 2014-04-01T08:52:51Z

Yeah that would be good. Thanks.

hurrycaner · 2014-04-01T14:02:23Z

Alex, please check your vagrant version...
1.4.3: https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant/tree/v1.4.3/plugins/hosts/windows
1.5.1: https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant/tree/v1.5.1/plugins/hosts/windows

There's new a function called nfs_installed in cap/nfs.rb on the 1.5.1 version... (in linux hosts there are lots of other new functions related to nfs too)

C:\dev>vagrant plugin install vagrant-winnfsd
Installing the 'vagrant-winnfsd' plugin. This can take a few minutes...
Installed the plugin 'vagrant-winnfsd (1.0.5)'!

C:\dev>vagrant up

that users should never see. Please report a bug.

My vagrantfile is the one at https://github.com/coreos/coreos-vagrant with uncommented synced_folder line...

darrenmonahan · 2014-04-07T21:54:09Z

Alex, I'm getting the 'nfs_installed' message using the default Vaprobash script on 1.5.2 on Windows 8.1

sergeikretov · 2014-04-22T11:31:59Z

Same stuff with vagrant 1.5.3 on windows 8.1 x64 machine:

"The capability 'nfs_installed' could not be found. This is an internal error
that users should never see. Please report a bug."

ryabenko-pro · 2014-04-24T14:35:36Z

Same issue. Windows 8, vagrant 1.5.4

vitali-ausianik · 2014-04-24T16:20:40Z

Same issue, vagrant 1.5.1, Win 8.1 x64

Lefaux · 2014-04-24T16:26:16Z

Maybe just a stupid idea, but did the author maybe test with Win7/8/8.1 Ultimate?
Because in that case we're f***d anyways :)

e-moe · 2014-04-26T11:14:11Z

hi, @GM-Alex , I'm having the same issue The capability 'nfs_installed' could not be found. :(
Win 8.1 pro x64 vagrant 1.5.3 and
Win 7 enterprise x64 vagrant 1.5.4

how can I help you to fix this?
thanks

e-moe · 2014-04-26T16:26:52Z

looks like removing vagrant.d folder in user's home solves this problem.

e-moe · 2014-04-26T16:28:45Z

but nfs on windows isn't so fast. it's way too behind linux one's :(

e-moe · 2014-04-26T16:29:33Z

actually it's almost equals standard smb performance... or I'm doing something wrong?

GM-Alex · 2014-04-26T21:44:06Z

You have to check if winnfsd.exe is running in your processes. To check out if it works really start the winnfsd manually (described here: https://bitbucket.org/jankowfsky/winnfsd), connect to the VM via SSH and mount the nfs folder. So you can test it.

e-moe · 2014-04-27T05:26:17Z

@GM-Alex , thanks! you were right. winnfsd.exe was not started.
I made clean vagrant and your plugin installation.
For me it works fine with Vagrant 1.4.3 on win 7 and 8.1
But clean install of Vagrant 1.5.4 and plugin still returns The capability 'nfs_installed' could not be found.

hurrycaner · 2014-04-30T02:17:15Z

@e-moe So, vagrant 1.5+ is not working, right?
@GM-Alex Is this working for you on vagrant 1.5+?

e-moe · 2014-04-30T12:44:30Z

@hurrycaner , yep

afterdesign · 2014-05-06T19:34:07Z

1.5.4 not working for me.
And 1.6 I think has a bug cause it wants bsdtar on windows.

mtwalsh · 2014-05-12T16:55:59Z

I also have this issue with 1.5.4 on Windows 7.

minchal · 2014-05-15T11:37:36Z

+1 confirmed for vagrant 1.6.2

pgcd · 2014-05-20T09:18:38Z

Bug confirmed for vagrant 1.6.2 here too.

** UPDATE **
I have managed to get the share to work by:

deleting .vagrant.d
manually starting winnfsd.exe
changing my vagrantfile to have a host_only interface
manually mounting the share in linux with mount -o 'vers=3,nolock,udp' 192.168.0.1:/vagrant /vagrant

I will try to see if I can further narrow down the problem.

pgibler · 2014-05-27T06:00:41Z

Having the same issue. Vagrant 1.6.2

GM-Alex · 2014-06-08T22:22:59Z

Please try the now version which has released right now.

pgcd · 2014-06-09T13:08:47Z

Working perfectly now, thanks.

GM-Alex · 2014-06-09T13:35:57Z

@pgcd Glad to hear that. Are you using Windows 8?

pgcd · 2014-06-09T13:37:57Z

No, Windows 7 but the symptoms were identical to those reported by the others.

Lefaux · 2014-06-09T13:39:04Z

@pgcd Could you specify the release type? Win 7 Professional or Win 7 Ultimate?

Thanks a bunch

hxu · 2014-06-09T13:40:23Z

I'm on Windows 8.1 pro and can confirm the new version seems to be working.

pgcd · 2014-06-09T13:40:36Z

@wmdbMattes Win 7 Pro - as far as I understand, Win 7 Ultimate should have NFS support out-of-the-box, so there might be some difference there due to that, but I'm afraid I can't help with that.

Lefaux · 2014-06-09T13:41:18Z

thanks mate

e-moe · 2014-06-09T13:58:20Z

win 8.1 pro x64 working correctrly, thanks!

e-moe · 2014-06-09T15:57:10Z

Win 7 Ultimate should have NFS support out-of-the-box

@pgcd , as far as I know it have only NFS client, not server.

borisschapira · 2014-06-12T09:29:46Z

I'v set the nfs_setting in my VagrantFile to test for the plugin existence, and it does. But then, at "Mounting NFS shared folders...", it freezes.

nfs_setting = RUBY_PLATFORM =~ /darwin/ || RUBY_PLATFORM =~ /linux/ || Vagrant.has_plugin?("vagrant-winnfsd")
config.vm.synced_folder "project/", "/var/www/", :nfs => nfs_setting

Seems to me that this is the bug described here.
My System : Windows 8.1 Professional, up-to-date.
@GM-Alex I don't know how all of this work, but I'd be proud to help if I can with some tests, do not hesitate to ask.
