vagrant up fails with cannot load winrm

Question

I am trying to run a Vagrant box with SQL Server for local development. I am running Fedora 23. The box in question is this.

vagrant up fails with the following error message:

/usr/share/vagrant/plugins/communicators/winrm/shell.rb:9:in `require':
cannot load such file -- winrm (LoadError)

I have tried to install winrm with gem install winrm, and it installs just fine, but vagrant still fails.

The following ruby script runs without errors:

require "winrm"
puts "hello world"

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Answer 1

Not sure what the problem was, but I fixed it by uninstalling vagrant with dnf, and installing the latest version from vagrantup.com. Seems winrm is included in the latest vagrant version.
