Encountered an issue with a Docker container image, preventing to destroy the vagrant environment using
vagrant destroy
. The error message indicated:
An action 'up' was attempted on the machine 'default',
but another process is already executing an action on the machine.
Vagrant locks each machine for access by only one process at a time.
Please wait until the other Vagrant process finishes modifying this
machine, then try again.
To resolve this issue, I used the following steps:
- Opened the “Activity Monitor” to identify the PID (Process ID) associated with the Vagrant Docker container.
- Executed the following command in the terminal to forcefully terminate the Vagrant process:
kill -9 PID
This action allowed me to overcome the locking issue and proceed with the destruction of the Vagrant environment successfully.
