I’ve followed the steps to install Trellis on local Ubuntu (Kubuntu) 20.04

On the ‘vagrant up’ command, I’m getting the following error:

Gem::LoadError: can’t activate vagrant-libvirt-0.2.1, already activated vagrant-libvirt-0.0.45

Vagrant 2.2.6  
vagrant-libvirt (0.0.45, system)  
VirtualBox Versión 6.1.10\_Ubuntu r138449

I’ve tried `vagrant plugin update` with result `All plugins are up to date.`

Is anyone able to help?

Thank you

What plugins do you have installed? You can run `vagrant plugin list`

Unfortunately I doubt we’ll be able to help much since this is likely a Vagrant issue unrelated to Trellis.

vagrant plugin list

vagrant up

```
Installing plugin vagrant-bindfs
Vagrant failed to initialize at a very early stage:

There was an error loading a Vagrantfile. The file being loaded
and the error message are shown below. This is usually caused by
a syntax error.

Okay, thanks a lot anyway. I’ll look it up like a Vagrant error.

The error disappears if I downgrade Vagrant from 2.2.6 to 2.1.5.  
But the version of Virtualbox in Ubuntu 20.04, 6.1, is not supported by version 2.1.5 of Vagrant.

I tried to install Virtualbox 5.2. But I have come across a dependency that I cannot fix: the version of the libvpx package. I have installed v6 and Virtualbox 5.2 need v5.

After reinstalling Vagrant 2.2.6 and Virtualbox 6.1, evertything work correctly. :roll_eyes:
