Vagrant machine disappears after reboot the host machine - netbeans

Question

Well, the title explain the issue very well. I install my vagrant machine through vagrant up from netbeans plugin. I configure it and use it propperly. Then i halt the machine, shut down my host machine, and when i start my host the vagrant machine has disappeared. No config files, no machine itself. Didn't find any documentation on this issue and i need the vagrant machine, so i install a new one every day so i can propperly debug my work project. I dont know what to do nor try, because I´ve only been using vagrant for a few weeks on a new job, but im wasting a lot of time on this daily instalation and i need to solve this. I appreciate any help.
Any ideas?

As a provisional solution im saving from now on all the vm files into other folder so i can only restore and dont need to install again, but this is a lame solution and i wish to do this propperly.

Answer 1

This question is of low quality and I'd recommend closing it if we can't fully describe what the issue that you were having and the solution to that issue. Keep in mind, you're able to submit answers to your own question. That way, other people who come across this issue will understand how you fixed the problem. Typically, you can discover a lot by searching "debugging X" (e.g. Google -> "debugging vagrant").
Short of that, something that might be useful to you is looking at the machine console (GUI) while your VM is booting. Since you're using Virtualbox, this is quite easy. In the section of your Vagrantfile that begins with config.vm.provider :virtualbox do |virtualbox| , add the following :
virtualbox.gui = true
This is a common approach, described in the documentation: http://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/virtualbox/configuration.html

To fix this i just stop launching vagrant from netbeans and started using it from cygwin. This way it dont disappear. Still dont know why it removes the machine if i launch it from netbeans, but i need to use it at work so i have to do it this way and move on. Thanks everyone for the answers and the time spent.
