digital ocean box has no user "vagrant"

[fideloper]

User "vagrant" assumes in PHP-FPM config (nginx/apache as well?) for run-as user. Digital Ocean provider does not have user "vagrant" (which is sorta weird given Vagrant's conventions?)

Hello, I can confirm you that it's the same for apache :-)
putting back to www-data in a custom script or manually is necessary to have it working. I think it's due to digital ocean having some clear limitations still.

I'm no expert, so maybe it's just a bug in the provider :-D

My temporal solution was adding the user without home directory and restart the nginx / php services

sudo useradd --no-create-home vagrant
sudo service php5-fpm restart && sudo service nginx restart

Looks like we can use "provider.setup" options - check it out on the readme: https://github.com/smdahlen/vagrant-digitalocean

config.ssh.username = vagrant
provider.setup = true
