touch(): Utime failed: Operation not permitted filesystem.inc:262 - drupal-7

Question

I'm trying to setup a Vagrant box with Puphpet to then install Drupal using Drush.
However, when I drush dl drupal in my document root, I get the following error:
touch(): Utime failed: Operation not permitted filesystem.inc:262 [warning]
Project drupal (7.37) could not be downloaded to [error]
/var/www/public/drupal-7.37.
Not sure if this is a problem with the Vagrant box or something more to do with Drush/Composer.
My puphpet config is as follows:

Answer 1

I was struggling with the same issue. I have found that NOT using NFS as the sync_type solved my problem.
