This repository contains all the files to get a VM up and running via Vagrant. Recommended is to assign at least 4Gb of RAM to this VM.

This Vagrant installs the following into a VM:

• Nginx
• PHP7
• Redis
• Magerun
• Magento 1
• Inchoo PHP7 module

The Vagrant configuration should be copied from Vagrantfile.sample to Vagrantfile.

cp Vagrantfile.sample Vagrantfile

This Vagrant configuration uses NFS. Under Linux or MacOS this image should work out of the box, as long as you have NFS installed. Under Windows, you might want to try WinNFSd or change the configuration in Vagrantfile to use an alternative to NFS. Alternatively (for any OS) you might want to opt for the rsync option - just make sure to run the command vagrant rsync-auto on the host side.

Memory is assigned to the VM by modifying the --memory variable in Vagrantfile. Note that some parameters like the query_cache in mysqld.cnf might also be tuned accordingly.

The folder vagrant_files includes a couple of files that are copied to the VM. Because the installer needs to access to the Magento repositories, make sure to add a file composer-auth.json with your Magento credentials in place. If you skip this step, the Magento install will fail. An example is located in composer-auth.json.sample.

This repository does not include the Magento installation files. Add the following files to the folder magento_files:

• magento-1.9.3.1.tar.gz
• magento-sample-data-1.9.1.0.tar.gz

For instance, you can download these files via http://pubfiles.nexcess.net/magento/

Alternatively, copy the files of the version of your liking, and modify the configuration vagrant_files/n98-magerun.yaml.

Bring up this Vagrant image:

vagrant up

Once the machine is up and running, Vagrant will run all the steps in the script vagrant-init.sh. After all steps are done, Magento 1 should be available under the following URL:

http://magento1.local/

Magento backend login is available under http://magento1.local/admin with username admin and password admin1234.

Because Magento 1 enforces a redirect to the right hostname, you will need to add a host-entry to your hosts file. Under Linux, this is the file /etc/hosts:

192.168.80.80   magento1.local

You can manage the VM by SSH-ing to it:

vagrant ssh

The machine is in Developer Mode by default. Magento 1 is installed into the folder source of the Vagrant folder, so that you can access all files via the hosting environment (your computer). The only exception is that the var/ is a symbolic link to the VMs /tmp folder so that the VM folder-synchronization (f.e. NFS) does not go crazy.
