Parallels 14.0.1

Scenario:

When I build Bento locally (the published boxes work fine), and I use the latest integration tools from parallels, I get the below error on some of my machines on boot. This doesn't happen with the current published box (v201808.24.0), that uses an old version of parallels tools.

This issue does not happen with Parallels 13.

Failed to mount folders in Linux guest. This is usually because
the "prl_fs" file system is not available. Please verify that
Parallels Tools are properly installed in the guest and
can work properly. If so, the VM reboot can solve a problem.
The command attempted was:

mount -t prl_fs -o uid=`id -u vagrant`,gid=`getent group vagrant | cut -d: -f3` media_DockerData /media/DockerData
mount -t prl_fs -o uid=`id -u vagrant`,gid=`id -g vagrant` media_DockerData /media/DockerData

Any way I can help troubleshoot this?

Nothing we can do but wait for Parallels to offer a patch/fix, I backed off 14 for the last release because it broke all the drivers.

There is a workaround: Parallels/vagrant-parallels#325 (comment)

I've made a patch for bento (adapted from vagrant-parallels, see https://github.com/Parallels/vagrant-parallels/blob/master/lib/vagrant-parallels/guest_cap/linux/mount_parallels_shared_folder.rb#L103):

I can send a PR if you are ok to accept it.

@max-arnold please do submit the PR - I'm currently out for a family thing but I'll review and merge later this week if it's viable.

This is fixed as per above - images will be released early next week ideally.
