Vagrant up stuck on "Waiting for the VM to receive an address" (Ubuntu 24.04 - vmware_desktop provider)

Vagrant
1

Hello,
I have created a custom box with ubuntu 24.04 server. Installed the ssh keys for vagrant within this VM golden image. I can start this VM via VMWare Workstation dashboard and also ssh into it from my host machine via its ip.

Have this Vagrant file:

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
  config.vm.box = "ubuntu24"
  config.vm.provider "vmware_desktop" do |v|
    v.ssh_info_public = true
    v.allowlist_verified = true
  end
end

“ubuntu24” is the name of the custom box.
On vagrant Up, it gets stuck on “Waiting for the VM to receive an address…”. See below:

❯ vagrant up --provider vmware_desktop
Bringing machine 'default' up with 'vmware_desktop' provider...
==> default: Verifying vmnet devices are healthy...
==> default: Preparing network adapters...
==> default: Starting the VMware VM...
==> default: Waiting for the VM to receive an address...

any help will be appreciated.

The host machine is Ubuntu 24.04. The VM has Ubuntu 24.04 server installed and nothing else.

❯ vagrant --version
Vagrant 2.4.5

❯ vmware --version

Hi @tek-shinobi,

Could you check what the output is with VAGRANT_LOG=debug vagrant up, is there anything obvious in the logs ? Or if possible could you share the debug logs.

Thanks!
