Unable to bring up vagrant box image which was added with parameter --name

Question

I downloaded the Vagrant box image directly using the URL and then added them using the --name option as

    C:\Users\vnathan>vagrant box add --name monasca c:\Users\vnathan\.vagrant\machines\monasca\devstack\virtualbox\devstack-0.1.3.box

and I was able to see the directory with vmdk file, manifest.json file, Vagrantfile, OVA file. under the directory C:\Users\vnathan.vagrant.d\boxes\monasca\0\virtualbox

I was able to able to view the list of added box on running

       C:\Users\vnathan>vagrant box list
       monasca (virtualbox, 0)

but I was not able to bring up the vagrant box on running the vagrant up command.

      C:\Users\vnathan>vagrant up monasca
      The machine with the name 'monasca' was not found configured for this Vagrant environment.

I updated the config.vm.box = "monasca" in the main Vagrantfile but still I could not bring up the instance.

Please let me know what should I do to poweron the box on running vagrant up. Thanks in advance.

The box setting is correct, show me the Vagrantfile, I guess there are something wrong in it. — BMW

Thanks BMW; I tried below steps on going thru some of the sites and finally I was able to add monasca box as part of vagrant but VirtualBox fails to import the image; I need to now dig in to resolve this issue.

C:\Users\vnathan>vagrant status
Current machine states:

     default                   not created (virtualbox)

     The environment has not yet been created. Run `vagrant up` to
     create the environment. If a machine is not created, only the
     default provider will be shown. So if a provider is not listed,
     then the machine is not created for that environment.

On Running vagrant up

C:\Users\vnathan>vagrant up
Bringing machine 'default' up with 'virtualbox' provider...
==> default: Importing base box 'monasca'...
There was an error while executing `VBoxManage`, a CLI used by Vagrant
for controlling VirtualBox. The command and stderr is shown below.
