Full path: /Users/dmarr/src/open-vagrant-boxes/iso/ubuntu-12.04.3-server-amd64.iso
There was an error downloading http://releases.ubuntu.com/12.04/ubuntu-12.04.3-server-amd64.iso:
404 Not Found

Looks like they deleted 12.04.3 from that server directory. You can work around this by downloading the ISO file and putting it in the 'iso' subdirectory.

Thanks Lai,
Strange that Canonical would remove /that/ link (seems kinda important, no?).

Do you know if there would be any benefit to using a box such as https://oss-binaries.phusionpassenger.com/vagrant/boxes/ubuntu-12.04.3-amd64-vbox.box

This is described in the docker docs as already containing a docker install, as well as some fixes to the core ubuntu image that docker typically installs: https://github.com/phusion/baseimage-docker

I'm still getting a 404 on the iso download.

There was an error downloading http://mirror.anl.gov/pub/ubuntu-iso/DVDs/ubuntu/12.04.3/release/ubuntu-12.04.3-server-amd64.iso:
404 Not Found

Also to clarify my question above, I was confusing .box and .iso files. I want to use the phusion/baseimage though as my ubuntu core but I wasn't sure about how to do that.

phusion/baseimage-docker is a Docker base image (i.e. the thing that you put in the "FROM" field inside your Dockerfile!), not a base image for virtual machines. Go read the website for a description of what baseimage-docker actually is.

marr commented

Note that the 12.04.3 version the definition points to is no longer available (see my 404 note above).
You should reopen this ticket until you can point to the version of Ubuntu that is actually available. I'd submit a PR but I had to pull out the VMWare stuff from the definitions and startup scripts for the build to work.

I forgot to push. 8a1049a fixes it.
