Custom 'script' is not persisted on Packer and Vagrant doesn´t display them when using Vagrantfile #192

It looks like you just need to add `script/devops_tools.sh` to the scripts section of your shell provisioner in your `ubuntu.json`. There's no easy way for packer to pick up new scripts automatically, as unless something changed recently, the shell provisioners don't take wildcards. (It's doable, but it requires shenanigans with the floppy and transferring scripts over to the packer side).
So the easiest wayt to get the desired behaviour should be to change the `shell provisioner` block in `ubuntu.json` like so:
```
"provisoners": [ {
"environment_vars": [
<same as before>
],
"execute_command": "<same as before>",
"scripts": [
"script/desktop.sh",
<same stuff as before>,
"script/cleanup.sh",
"script/devops_tools.sh"
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ <---- add "script/devops_tools.sh" to the script list
],
"type": "shell",
"expect_disconnect": "true"
} ],
```

Hello,
Thank for this project.
I have used this code to make an own custom devops environment (https://github.com/joudaon/vagrant-devops <https://github.com/joudaon/vagrant-devops>).
On the script folder I have added an script devops_tools.sh to install custom software (please see the script on: https://github.com/joudaon/vagrant-devops/blob/master/vagrant/provision/devops_tools.sh <https://github.com/joudaon/vagrant-devops/blob/master/vagrant/provision/devops_tools.sh>). And of course this script has been added to ubuntu.json file.
I want all these programs to be installed on the "box" packer build so that when I create a new Vagrantfile the software is already installed and I don´t have to provision it.
The things is that when I create a new Vagrantfile and use that box, Ubuntu Destkop doesn´t display that installed software and that's why I have to provision devops_tools.sh on the Vagrant side and not on the Packer.
Any clue why this is happening?
Thank you.

Hi @boxcutter-robot I have tried that and didn´t work. The But when running, Well, I placed Thank you. |

As long as you verify the script is being run (which you can add some "echo" statements to verify that), then you'll need to troubleshoot it a little further.
One possibility is that the cleanup script is undoing something. So you might want to try commenting that out to see if that is a factor.
Another possibility is that you're pointing at the wrong box, your Vagrantfile might not actually be using the box that you built, so you might want to check that as well. Make sure that what is registered in vagrant and what you are using are actually what was built.
All I can think of for now.

The devops_tools.sh script is run and packer builds box file for vagrant.
But when running, vagrant up none of the tools of that script are present.
