Is this suppose to take 35 hours to install?

I am having this issue now, it says:

Bringing machine 'default' up with 'virtualbox' provider... [default] Box 'treehouse-rails4' was not found. Fetching box from specified URL for the provider 'virtualbox'. Note that if the URL does not have a box for this provider, you should interrupt Vagrant now and add the box yourself. Otherwise Vagrant will attempt to download the full box prior to discovering this error. Downloading or copying the box...

It says it will take 32 hours to do.

I don't know about this but you can get it going now and do some side project with HTML and CSS ans start tomorrow : p

35 Hours? I doubt it. NOTHING should take 35 hours (other than these classes) lol.

It took me to upload some folders of 40websites with approx page and half to school server xd

An error occurred while downloading the remote file. The error:09) message, if any, is reproduced below. Please fix this error and try again.

Recv failure: Operation timed out

That is what I got after 7 hours went by..

Umm, i don't know. Try again.

Tried again, didn't work. Trying a third time, and downloaded the file that was directly in the video area, it still seems it is missing : treehouse-rails4. Guess this is where my ruby lesson will have to end till they fix this error. Have to start on something else.

I am trying again, this time it says 1hour 28min, better than the 35 hours. It seems the zip doesn't have all the files it is suppose too, so it is downloading treehouse-rails4 from somewhere. Guess it was suppose to be in the zip file but isn't?

What you want or!? I could try and download it for you and send it over Skype if it's possibile or something

I contacted TreeHouse Support to see if they can figure out the issue since it seems to be with the file itself.

Aurielian, that sounds great. I mean I downloaded the zip file from here, so it seems to be missing something.

It says 32 hours to me too. Did you find any solution?

Never found a good answer. I just gave up and used Sublime Text.
