Description (last modified by )
Trying to import an appliance via VirtualBox's GUI interface, I get a non-descriptive failure message. Trying the same using VBoxManage provides a *little* more information. Fllowig is the output:
$ ./VBoxManage.exe import C:\tmp\pws-deb32.ova --vsys 0 --unit 6
--ignore --vsys 0 --unit 10 --disk C:\local\VirtualBox\HardDisks\pws\pws-deb32-disk1.vmdk

Please advise. I've tried importing another appliance with the GUI (FreeBSD host), same result. This is a very nasty showstopper for me.
Thanks,
Rony
