In WIndows 8.1
Bringing machine 'default' up with 'virtualbox' provider...
[default] Box 'precise32' was not found. Fetching box from specified URL for
the provider 'virtualbox'. Note that if the URL does not have
a box for this provider, you should interrupt Vagrant now and add
the box yourself. Otherwise Vagrant will attempt to download the
full box prior to discovering this error.

+1.
It worked well just after the installation. Then I decided to vagrant destroy``the VM I was testing to try another one. When I wanted tovagrant up
again with another box I ran into this issue. Trying the URL of the first one ended in the same error message.

Any news on this ?
EDIT:
Uninstalling and reinstalling Vagrant fixed the issue.
We had the same problem on a Windows 8 machine. The user had a non ASCII character in his username. Switching to an ASCII username fixed the problem..
This is the same as #2113 Closing this one for that.
