Vagrant Up hangs after creating droplet + user account...

[AlphaDork]

Vagrant up seems to hang after creating the user account. I can "vagrant ssh" into the box and a droplet is created correctly - but the original command never comes back from the "vagrant up" command. Also if I include a provisioning script - it's never executed (I have to vagrant up --provision that).

I am running this from a Win7x64 box if that's an issue.

C:\Dev\vagrant\xen-jekyll>vagrant up
Bringing machine 'default' up with 'digital_ocean' provider...
   ==> default: Using existing SSH key: Vagrant
   ==> default: Creating a new droplet...
   ==> default: Assigned IP address: <ip-address-censored>

   Text will be echoed in the clear. Please install the HighLine or Termios libraries to suppress
   Enter passphrase for <path-to-key-file-censored>
   ==> default: Creating user account: ubuntu...*

Vagrant file is below:

# -*- mode: ruby -*-
# vi: set ft=ruby :

# All Vagrant configuration is done below. The "2" in Vagrant.configure
# configures the configuration version (we support older styles for
# backwards compatibility). Please don't change it unless you know what

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|

  config.vm.hostname = 'MSPLDTEST'
  # Alternatively, use provider.name below to set the Droplet name. config.vm.hostname takes precedence.

  config.vm.provider :digital_ocean do |provider, override|
    override.ssh.username = 'ubuntu'
    override.ssh.private_key_path = '~/.ssh/id_rsa_mindsplode'
    override.vm.box = 'digital_ocean'
    override.vm.box_url = "https://github.com/devopsgroup-io/vagrant-digitalocean/raw/master/box/digital_ocean.box"

    provider.token = '<token-censored>'
    provider.image = 'ubuntu-16-04-x64'
    provider.region = 'nyc2'
    provider.size = '1gb'
    provider.private_networking = true
    provider.ssh_key_name = Vagrant
    provider.setup = true
  end
end

TIA!

I'm also experiencing this issue after assigning the IP address:

$ vagrant up --provider=digital_ocean
Bringing machine 'default' up with 'digital_ocean' provider...
==> default: Using existing SSH key: Vagrant
==> default: Creating a new droplet...
==> default: Assigned IP address: REDACTED

config.vm.provider "digital_ocean" do |provider, override|
    # you probably don't need to change these
    override.vm.box = "digital_ocean"
    override.vm.box_url = "https://github.com/devopsgroup-io/vagrant-digitalocean/raw/master/box/digital_ocean.box"

    # configure the DO droplet here
    override.ssh.private_key_path = "~/.ssh/id_rsa"
    provider.token = "REDACTED"
    provider.name = "REDACTED"
    provider.image = "ubuntu-14-04-x64"
    provider.region = "nyc3"
    provider.size = "512mb"
end

Thanks!

EDIT: Nevermind! It looks like I was actually running into the same issue as #134, and I was able to fix it by removing my old ssh key from my DO account.

I was getting the same issue, I kept freezing after the box was assigned an IP ADDRESS. So I decided to try running vagrant up in debug mode to see what the heck was going on.

VAGRANT_LOG=debug vagrant up --provider=digital_ocean

To be specific the key type I was using for SSH was ed25519, which is supposed to be quite secure. I believe since a fresh box isn't exactly up-to-date. By default it may not support, until OpenSSL/OpenSSH are updated on the VM's. The reason I came to these conclusions is because is part of the debug error stated:

* kex: diffie-hellman-group14-sha1
* host_key: ssh-rsa
* encryption_server: aes128-ctr
* encryption_client: aes128-ctr
* hmac_client: hmac-sha1
* hmac_server: hmac-sha1
* compression_client: none
* compression_server: none

...skip a bunch of processing out...

You'll notice from the output that the DigitalOcean VM's do not support ssh-ed25519 key formats by default. From here I tried switching to a different PublicKey type ssh-rsa which is generate the default generated key type on most systems.

# Vagrantfile
override.ssh.private_key_path = '~/.ssh/id_rsa'
#override.ssh.private_key_path = '~/.ssh/digitalocean_ed25519_key'

Now when connecting to the VM's the new output should be similar to (which means it connected can is attempting to run the provision):

⇒ vagrant up --provider=digital_ocean                                                                                                         [05:23PM]

@tarellel it's not just that the target VM doesn't support ed25519 ssh keys - another reason for failure (silent unless debug is enabled) is that the used net-ssh gem doesn't support ed25519. For example, on Fedora 26. See also #273
