Problem with http://files.vagrantup.com/lucid32.box
I am trying to setup Vagrant and after clicking the OK button in Add Vagrant Box I get a timeout problem? What did I do wrong?
Total Newbie to PHPStorm.

It's not a PhpStorm fault, please check this thread:

Hi,
Ok, thanks..
I am a Niewbie to this entire PHPStorm / Vagrant tool chain. I noticed my usr/bin/php directory in the VM is non-existent. So I am guessing that PHP is not setup in the VM. Did I miss some instructions somewhere on setting up the "Box"? I installed the centos/7 box and I could not find the lucid32 box that the PHPStorm was using by default.
I am not a Linux guru, every Linux install I have done include Apache and PHP. Maybe I need to setup these in the centos/7 box?
Thanks,
Bob
Exactly, boxes are shrunk versions of full OS distributions, so they don't include some soft to reduce their size.

Ok, I think I see now says the blind man.
There are SO many box types. A Linux guru buddy suggest Centos/7. Is that OK for a newbie or is another box recommended?
I will be delighted when I get Hello World to run but later the projects will become more complex. I have done app distribution to Win32, Win64, Android and iOS using the Delphi tool chain by Embarcadero so I do have some experience. I just need to learn the PHPStorm and Vagrant chain.
If Centos/7 is not going to cause problems I will use that.
Thanks,
Bob
Personally, I'd recommend ubuntu/bionic64: https://app.vagrantup.com/ubuntu/boxes/bionic64
Ubuntu is a very popular distribution, so you can easily install almost anything there, plus tons of guide, tips and how-tos.
