Zyigh opened a new issue #4468: Vagrantfile is outdated / not working
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-openwhisk/issues/4468
 
 
   ## Environment details:
   Local deployement with vagrant 2.2.4 on Mac OS Mojave (10.14.4) and VirtualBox 5.2.2
   
   ## Steps to reproduce the issue:
   
   Go on `tools/vagrant` and execute `./hello` (which is basically a `vagrant up`)
   
   ## Provide the expected results and outputs:
   
   This should create a virtual machine with everything installed and set up properly
   
   ## Provide the actual results and outputs:
   
   3 problems are preventing the construction of the virtual machine : 
   * Java Installer is outdated.
   * Grub installer asks for interaction
   * npm is missing, so installation won't work
   
   ## Additional information you deem important:
   
   I couldn't test it on different OS / version. Also, the grub interraction problem appeared today on my computer. The [solution I found here](https://github.com/hashicorp/vagrant/issues/289#issuecomment-12408200) is from 2013.
   
   I had to modify the Vagrantfile to make it work : 
   
   I removed the line `su vagrant -c 'source all.sh oracle'` and replaced it with 
   ```bash
   su vagrant -c 'source all.sh'
   curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_8.x | sudo bash - && apt-get install -y nodejs
   sudo DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get -y -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confdef" -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-confold" dist-upgrade
   ```
   
   Removing the option "oracle" to all.sh install scripts that are still supported by ubuntu.
   After that line I install node 
   And then run the script found to prevent interraction with grub during vagrant up
   
   Also I thought it would be important to write this as an issue as I had to search many different places to find a solution so this can help, but I'm not sure it would be a good idea to create a pull request as I couldn't test it in many environment (such as different VirtualBox or vagrant versions)
