ruby on rails - How do I access my Virtualbox using Vagrant on Windows 7 -

steps have done far: have downloaded virtualbox , vagranton windows7 on local machine made directory in c: drive -> mkdir sitesvm @ windows command line cd'ed sitesvm , did vagrant init vagrant vagrant ssh

this popped up

c:\sitesvm>vagrant ssh ssh executable not found in directories in %path% variable. ssh client installed? seek installing cygwin, mingw or git, of contain ssh client. or utilize favorite ssh client next authentication info shown below: host: 127.0.0.1 port: 2222 username: vagrant private key: c:/sitesvm/.vagrant/machines/default/virtualbox/private_key

i have installed cygwin suggested, cygwin must not communicating locally because not have files available through cygwin command line.

what missing here ?

the cygwin tools (like ssh) work cygwin command line, not windows command line.

do vagrant destroy or @ to the lowest degree vagrant suspend window command line working. seek starting cygwin terminal, alter same directory (cd /cygdrive/c/sitesvm) , start vm 1 time again there (vagrant up).

now, should able utilize vagrant ssh cygwin bash shell.

(not of strictly necessary, create easier go on working bash shell.)

if still doesn't work, ssh may not installed.

from cygwin command line, type ssh. should see:

$ ssh usage: ssh [-1246aacfggkkmnnqsttvvxxyy] [-b bind_address] [-c cipher_spec] [-d [bind_address:]port] [-e log_file] [-e escape_char] [-f configfile] [-i pkcs11] [-i identity_file] [-l [bind_address:]port:host:hostport] [-l login_name] [-m mac_spec] [-o ctl_cmd] [-o option] [-p port] [-q cipher | cipher-auth | mac | kex | key] [-r [bind_address:]port:host:hostport] [-s ctl_path] [-w host:port] [-w local_tun[:remote_tun]] [user@]hostname [command]

if cygwin ssh client installed properly.

if says -bash: ssh: command not found, go cygwin installer (setup-x86.exe or setup-x86_64.exe) , in select packages screen, search openssh. switch skip version (right 6.8p1-1) , nail next. install ssh client in cygwin.
