As Manuel stated, deleting the .vagrant.d folder will solve the issue.

oddly this happened on windows as well, i didn't install anything new, or reinstall vagrant or anything like that. the only thing i can think of is the power cut we had last week has caused a folder/file lock... although a reboot should solve that :S

i had the same problem. I used Vagrant before and uninstall it. When i tried to reinstall back i had the same error My solution was to delete the .vagrant.d temp folder (in your case /home/w3cert/.vagrant.d/)

Hope it works for you as well

Permission denied

means that the file /home/w3cert/.vagrant.d/data/machine-index/index.lock is owned by another user and your current user has no permission.

check who is the owner of your file, if you run any install/command with sudo or root then your current user will not have access to modify the file.

for now you can change the ownership of all .vagrant.d files to your account and you should be able to run the vagrant up command
