magento2box is a Vagrant image based on Rasmus Lerdorf's php7dev Vagrant image. It comes preconfigured with PHP 7, Nginx, MySQL 5.6 and a base install of the Magento 2.

Download and install Virtualbox

Download and install Vagrant

$ git clone [email protected]:RMcLeod79/magento2dev.git

Now copy magento2.box into magento2dev

$ cd magento2dev
...
$ ./setup.sh
...
$ vagrant up
...
$ vagrant ssh
...
$ ./install.sh

Add this to your hosts file:

192.168.7.7 magento2.dev

There are also various vagrant plugins that can help you update your dns. See local-domain-resolution.

At this point you should be able to point your browser at:

http://magento2.dev/

and it should show the Magento 2 Store home page.

The Magento2 files can be found in ./htdocs these are shared to /var/www/magento2 on the guest machine

All passwords on the server (sudo, MySQL root etc.) are vagrant

When you try to login to the admin you will get an error, this error is something to do with config cache. To get round it:

$ vagrant ssh
...
$ cd /var/www/magento2
...
$ rm -rf var/cache

Now refresh the admin page and you will see the dashboard. Try navigating to System -> Cache and you will get the same error again. Remove the cache folder again and refresh you will now see the cache settings, disable config cache and the problem goes away.

The problem is to do with when Magento tries to unserialize the cache data, feel free to find a fix and PR it to Magento
