Rancher Vagrant Quickstart cannot get past curl - certificate expired

[jac121212]

I'm trying to deploy rancher with Vagrant and virtualbox with the QuickStart installation guide:
https://rancher.com/docs/rancher/v2.6/en/quick-start-guide/deployment/quickstart-vagrant/

==> server-01: Loading metadata for box 'chrisurwin/RancherOS'
server-01: URL: https://vagrantcloud.com/chrisurwin/RancherOS
==> server-01: Adding box 'chrisurwin/RancherOS' (v1.5.1) for provider: virtualbox
server-01: Downloading: https://vagrantcloud.com/chrisurwin/boxes/RancherOS/versions/1.5.1/providers/virtualbox.box
server-01: Progress: 0% (Rate: 0/s, Estimated time remaining: --:--:--):--)
An error occurred while downloading the remote file. The error
message, if any, is reproduced below. Please fix this error and try
again.

SSL certificate problem: certificate has expired
More details here: https://curl.haxx.se/docs/sslcerts.html

curl failed to verify the legitimacy of the server and therefore could not
establish a secure connection to it. To learn more about this situation and
how to fix it, please visit the web page mentioned above.

Any idea how to get round this (by editing the vagrantfile?)

For me vagrantcoud.com has a valid TLS certificate, which is not expired. If this is still happening: Do you maybe have some corporate HTTP proxy in between, which breaks TLS?

You can of course always disable TLS validation for the box download: https://developer.hashicorp.com/vagrant/docs/vagrantfile/machine_settings#config-vm-box_download_insecure.

This issue should be closed.

Vagrant renewed their certificate last year and it works:

$ curl -vI https://vagrantcloud.com/chrisurwin/RancherOS 2>&1 |grep date

*  expire date: Jun  4 23:59:59 2024 GMT
