Answer 1

This problem appears on my Windows 7, using vagrant 1.9.6 and VirtualBox 5.1.22. The problem was that I previously removed some of the Host-Only adapters. A workaround for this problem was to change the IPv4 address of existing Host-Only adapter to match the VagrantFile configuration:

• look for IP in Vagrantfile for config.vm.network:

  config.vm.network "private_network", ip: "192.168.42.10"

• modify the IPv4 address of existing Host-only adapter to match the IP. Got to VirtualBox -> File -> Preferences -> Network -> Host-only Networks - > right click on VirtualBox Host-Only Ethernet Adapter (Edit Host-only Network). Change IPv4 address to:

  192.168.42.1
