Vagrant box cannot be downloaded; Stale url

[nederhrj]

The Vagrant file references a Vagrant box that cannot be downloaded. The url to this file (on Dropbox) is not working.

Is there an alternative box that can be used? I tried http://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/vagrant/quantal/current/quantal-server-cloudimg-amd64-vagrant-disk1.box but it doesn't work out of the box.

Same issue, seems like the repo is abandoned. Too bad

In the Vagrantfile, you can change lines 12 and 16 to spin up a different vm. I changed mine to:

  # Every Vagrant virtual environment requires a box to build off of.
  config.vm.box = "ubuntu"

  # The url from where the 'config.vm.box' box will be fetched if it
  # doesn't already exist on the user's system.
  config.vm.box_url = "https://github.com/jose-lpa/packer-ubuntu_14.04/releases/download/v2.0/ubuntu-14.04.box"

(you can find a list of boxes here)

If the install has any errors (and for me, it did), you can vagrant ssh into the box and fix them.
