Congrats Joe! Thanks as always for all the hard work you put into this awesome project!

[browner12]

Surprised you built the Virtualbox version first, considering all the problems you seemed to have with it. Were there issues with the Parallels version, too, or is that guy on the way?

I wanted to get the Virtualbox built and out as a test to see if I missed anything big. It's been a few days and so far so good. I'll get Parallels built and uploaded soon(tm)

[browner12]

Gotcha, thanks for the response!

Gotcha, thanks for the response!

Parallels box uploaded.

So the recommendation previously was to be on the "release" branch when working in Homestead, which I see hasn't been updated with these changes. Are we changing how we do branching, or are you still considering this "pre-release"?

The box is ready for use, but you'd need to be on Homestead's main branch currently because I still haven't tagged a release. I've done my minimal testing but I'd love to hear another success before tagging. If you'd rather wait and not test drive that's fine too :D

Thanks for the clarification. I'll test out the Parallels ARM version on my home MacBook tonight.

[browner12]

I successfully got the new box running on my MacBook Pro tonight, with the ARM64 Parallels version. It even feels snappier than the old box!

Had some minimal issues, which I'll try to spell out here.

• in my Homestead.yaml file, I had a custom override box key pointing to the laravel/homestead-arm box. Probably a remnant from the very old days when the ARM version was first being built, but I needed to remove that for it to work.

I'd say to avoid confusion it would be nice if we could remove the laravel/homestead-arm box at https://app.vagrantup.com/laravel, but I'm not sure if that's allowed. Ideally we'd remove the other random boxes ("mariadb" and "7") as well.

There is also the warning of the use of the deprecated apt-key, which I believe we also had in the old box. It would be nice if we could make these updates to remove those warnings, and I'd definitely be willing to help with that.

Otherwise, the box seems to behaving just like before.

---

There do appear to be some issues that carried over from the previous version, probably unrelated to the box, and more related to the provision scripts.

• the "mysql" key is not a valid feature, and results in Invalid feature: mysql. This might just be an example file and documentation we need to change.
• I am getting errors when setting the "web-driver" feature to true. It could possibly be related to the apt-key issues. Keeping this disabled allows the provision to continue.

I'll be on the LaraSlack tomorrow if you'd like to discuss any of these things in a more realtime setting.

Thanks!

One possible issue found. On a site that I have both the cache_driver and session_driver set to "redis", I'm getting a "Class "Redis" not found" error. Trying to dig in why that might be happening, and will report back. I always get confused by the PHP Redis Extension vs Predis stuff, so I'll have to re-familiarize myself with it.

Yes, part of this work has been to consolidate onto the laravel/homestead base box on app.vagrantup.com. Sorry, this wasn't more clear, docs should certainly be updated in this regard. Vagrant 2.4 is what brought architecture awareness and the big reason we have to require that minimum version despite some not-fun Virtualbox JavaScript bugs.

I need to review those and see if it's time to delete the boxes or at least remove the downloads.

the "mysql" key is not a valid feature, and results in Invalid feature: mysql. This might just be an example file and documentation we need to change.

From my Homestead.yaml

folders:
    - map: /Users/halo/Code/fresh
      to: /home/vagrant/fresh

sites:
    - map: fresh.test
      to: /home/vagrant/fresh/public

databases:
    - fresh

features:
    - ohmyzsh: false
    - webdriver: false

services:
    - mysql: true

Confirmed the webdriver feature is broken. Needs to be updated to something ~

wget -q -O - https://dl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | gpg --dearmour -o /usr/share/keyrings/chrome-keyring.gpg
echo "deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/chrome-keyring.gpg] http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google.list'

But we need a condition check for arch in the echo.
