[vagrant-up] A lot of issues installing the latest version from a beginners standpoint

[Elizalde Esteban]

As a beginner trying to understand the tool. It messed up my weekend trying
to get vagrant running starting with the SSH not working (using ubuntu
18.04).
Some users recommended downgrading which also caused problems with
virtualbox.

It would have saved a lot of effort and frustration if a good documentation
and prerequisite checks are made during the install to ensure all
components are in place.

looking forward in the future to have essential information like these
will be clearer in the future.

Hello,

On the official Vagrant website you may find a lot of documentation
regarding any of the functionality of the tool.

On this link below for example is described how to SSH to the machine that
you have build using Vagrant.

https://www.vagrantup.com/docs/cli/ssh.html

If you still have not built any machine, please check all other sections of
the documentation for the information you need.

https://www.vagrantup.com/intro/getting-started/index.html

The getting-started guide would be very helpful also for a beginner.
After doing it you may focus onto the documentation and the piece
information that you are looking for.

https://www.vagrantup.com/docs/index.html

I will be glad if i could help you.

Please do not hesitate to ask if you have any further questions.

Best reagards,

Denislav

Thanks a lot. I managed to get it running. Earlier I was attempting to install and run it inside a virtual machine but a lot of issues encountered. Installing it natively on my win7 is did the trick .
