Hyperledger fabric vagrant up in devenv fails

Question

I'm following the instructions at this link: https://github.com/hyperledger/fabric/blob/master/examples/e2e_cli/end-to-end.rst

I get the following error when i run vagrant up:

$ vagrant up
Bringing machine 'default' up with 'virtualbox' provider...
==> default: Importing base box 'hyperledger/fabric-baseimage'...
==> default: Matching MAC address for NAT networking...
==> default: Checking if box 'hyperledger/fabric-baseimage' is up to date...
==> default: Setting the name of the VM: hyperledger
==> default: Destroying VM and associated drives...
C:/HashiCorp/Vagrant/embedded/gems/gems/vagrant-      1.9.3/lib/vagrant/util/is_port_open.rb:21:in `initialize': The requested address is not valid in its context. - connect(2) for "0.0.0.0" port 7050 (Errno::EADDRNOTAVAIL)

Can someone tell me how to solve this?

Answer 1

This is a problem with vagrant 1.9.3:

You can upgrade to the latest version to stop getting this error or, 

To make it work with this version, specify host ip in the Vagrantfile in every port forwarding command:

config.vm.network :forwarded_port, guest: 7050, host: 7050, host_ip: "127.0.0.1" # fabric orderer service

config.vm.network :forwarded_port, guest: 7051, host: 7051, host_ip: "127.0.0.1" # fabric peer service

config.vm.network :forwarded_port, guest: 7053, host: 7053, host_ip: "127.0.0.1" # fabric peer event service

config.vm.network :forwarded_port, guest: 7054, host: 7054, host_ip: "127.0.0.1" # fabric-ca service

config.vm.network :forwarded_port, guest: 5984, host: 15984, host_ip: "127.0.0.1" # CouchDB service

Vagrant should now work.
