On Mac OS X when trying to follow the Vagrant tutorial for provisioning with chef, I get the following error. If I use puppet instead, the same issue occurs and if I use lucid32 the same issue occurs. Help?

    There is an open ticket for this at https://github.com/mitchellh/vagrant/issues/516

    What worked for me was the following:

    1. Updated to VirtualBox 4.1.20 (from 4.1.18 running on Ubuntu 12.04 host)
    2. Updated all gems (I use rbenv. Notably my net-ssh gem was outdated)
    3. Created a new basebox using instructions at https://github.com/jedi4ever/veewee/blob/master/doc/vagrant.md

    I no longer get the “closed stream (IOError)” issue and can do multi VM vagrant deploys without any issues.
