Timeout: No response from localhost

Hello

I'm running NetSNMP 5.7.3 on a VM Virtualbox with Ubuntu16.04 and keep
getting "Timeout: No response from localhost" when running the command "snmpget
localhost -v 2c -c public sysUpTime.0"

I've double checked that snmpd is indeed running with "service snmpd
status" which returns ...
● snmpd.service - LSB: SNMP agents
   Loaded: loaded (/etc/init.d/snmpd; bad; vendor preset: enabled)
   Active: active (exited) since Thu 2017-11-16 20:43:08 PST; 12min ago
     Docs: man:systemd-sysv-generator(8)
  Process: 5173 ExecStop=/etc/init.d/snmpd stop (code=exited,
status=0/SUCCESS)
  Process: 5178 ExecStart=/etc/init.d/snmpd start (code=exited,
status=0/SUCCESS)

Nov 16 20:43:08 justin-VirtualBox systemd[1]: Starting LSB: SNMP agents...
Nov 16 20:43:08 justin-VirtualBox systemd[1]: Started LSB: SNMP agents.


I've double checked my snmpd.config at /usr/local/share/snmp and it seems
fine...
# SECTION: Access Control Setup
#
#   This section defines who is allowed to talk to your running
#   snmp agent.

# rwuser: a SNMPv3 read-write user
#   arguments:  user [noauth|auth|priv] [restriction_oid]

rwuser  localhost

# rouser: a SNMPv3 read-only user
#   arguments:  user [noauth|auth|priv] [restriction_oid]

rouser  localhost

# rocommunity: a SNMPv1/SNMPv2c read-only access community name
#   arguments:  community [default|hostname|network/bits] [oid]

rocommunity  public localhost
rocommunity  public

# rwcommunity: a SNMPv1/SNMPv2c read-write access community name
#   arguments:  community [default|hostname|network/bits] [oid]

rwcommunity  public


I've been tearing my hair trying to fix this for the last few days so any
help would be greatly appreciated.
