Laravel Instal

My strong suit is not the command prompt.

I am attempting to run vagrant up after I modified the Homestead.yaml file per the instructions of both the Laravel documents and the Laravel Treehouse lesson.

I'm getting a long list of code in the command prompt. It appears that it is not working how it should.

It does show that i have a .ssh id_rsa.

I took a screenshot of the returned code from the command prompt but since I can't load it here, I put it in a public facing dropbox.

any help would be appreciated.

Hi Kris,

The error in the command prompt says you currently don't have an SSH key with the file name id_rsa in C:/Users/Kris/.ssh/, for as long as I'm on this forum I'll keep referring people to one specific thread I replied to as I've found a method on Windows for getting Vagrant working first time every time and haven't faulted it once even on a fresh and clean install of Windows.

Thanks Chris.

So i went back into the Homestead.yaml file and updated my info as I did not have the absolute path in the file.

When I ran vargrant up in the cmd prmpt I got this message: The host path of the shared folder is missing: c/Users/Kris/Homestead/Projects.com/library/laravel-basics/getting-started-with-laravel/installing-laravel-homestead

So I decided to try to add a new folder to the Homestead folder and tried it again. It then timed out.

Did you run vagrant provision after changing Homestead.yaml?

OKAY..... so I followed along with Chris' information and got the vagrant up to work all the way through.

I had to go into the BIOs and turn the VM on. It was off.

I was looking at the console log when vagrant was starting and notice this in red:

stdin: is not a tty

Do you have any idea on where I would try to fix this if is needed to be fixed?

My computer software/hardware fixing skills are limited :>

Thanks for any help

This is fine, I get the same thing but it doesn't affect homestead.
