I'm attempting to setup a Ruby Development Environment.
After downloading the Treehouse VM, I run
jasons-imac:treehouse jasonniebauer$ ls
Vagrantfile projects
jasons-imac:treehouse jasonniebauer$ vagrant up
-bash: vagrant: command not found
jasons-imac:treehouse jasonniebauer$ vagrant up
-bash: vagrant: command not found
What am I doing wrong?

28,801 PointsJames Barnett Well, I figured out what the issue is. I downloaded Vagrant, but in the midst of installing everything, I forgot to install Vagrant! No wonder the command could not be found :)
Thanks for your assistance though.

and find / -name vagrant
commands?

James Barnett
39,199 PointsPermission denied means you are searching areas your user account doesn't have access to. You can use sudo find / -name vagrant

28,801 PointsI attempted:
jasons-imac:treehouse jasonniebauer$ sudo -name vagrant
usage: sudo -h | -K | -k | -L | -V
usage: sudo -v [-AknS] [-g groupname|#gid] [-p prompt] [-u user name|#uid]
usage: sudo -l[l] [-AknS] [-g groupname|#gid] [-p prompt] [-U user name] [-u
user name|#uid] [-g groupname|#gid] [command]
usage: sudo [-AbEHknPS] [-C fd] [-g groupname|#gid] [-p prompt] [-u user

usage: sudo -e [-AknS] [-C fd] [-g groupname|#gid] [-p prompt] [-u user
name|#uid] file ...
not really sure what this means...

39,199 PointsThe command is not:
sudo -name vagrant
It's ...
sudo find / -name vagrant
