  <p>Post this vagrant goes into aborted state and exits out mentioning the below -</p>
  
  <pre><code>"==&gt; default: Running 'pre-boot' VM customizations...
   ==&gt; default: Booting VM...
   ==&gt; default: Waiting for machine to boot. This may take a few minutes...
       The guest machine entered an invalid state while waiting for it
       to boot. Valid states are 'starting, running'. The machine is in the
       'aborted' state. Please verify everything is configured
       properly and try again.
  
       If the provider you're using has a GUI that comes with it,
       it is often helpful to open that and watch the machine, since the
       GUI often has more helpful error messages than Vagrant can retrieve.
       For example, if you're using VirtualBox, run `vagrant up` while the
       VirtualBox GUI is open.
  
       The primary issue for this error is that the provider you're using
       is not properly configured. This is very rarely a Vagrant issue."
