VirtualBox does not import nuxeo 5.9.2
Hi,
Followed instructions on README.txt, i.e. from VirtualBox (v4.3.6 on OS X 10.9.2): In the interface, go to File -> Import Appliance and select nuxeovm.ovf.
However, I get the following error message:
Failed to import appliance /MYPATH/nuxeo-5.9.2-vm/nuxeovm.ovf. Could not find a valid medium format for the source disk 'nuxeovm.vmdk' Check correctness of the image format URL in the OVF description file..
Result Code: VBOX_E_NOT_SUPPORTED (0x80BB0009) Component: Appliance
Interface: IAppliance {3059cf9e-25c7-4f0b-9fa5-3c42e441670b}
Any suggestions will be welcome
The import was broken by some VirtualBox changes.
Going through their changelog, the likely culprit is “OVF: improved logic for finding an appropriate image format during OVF import” (VBox 4.3.4)
We hope to find a fix for it, but in the meantime the workaround is to use an older version.
I haven't tested 4.3.2, but it works on 4.2.10.

Hi
My configuration : VirtualBox 4.3.6 with Debian 7.4
I just found how to do. You have to modified the ovf file because the vmware url is not yet valid:
previous (line 17 in your ovf file)
<Disk ovf:diskId="nuxeovm" ovf:capacity="10240" ovf:capacityAllocationUnits="byte * 2^20" ovf:format="http://www.vmware.com/interfaces/specifications/vmdk.html#monolithicFlat" ovf:fileRef="nuxeovm.vmdk_id" ovf:populatedSize="10240"/>
now in my configuration
<Disk ovf:diskId="nuxeovm" ovf:capacity="10240" ovf:capacityAllocationUnits="byte * 2^20" ovf:format="http://www.vmware.com/interfaces/specifications/vmdk.html#streamOptimized" ovf:fileRef="nuxeovm.vmdk_id" ovf:populatedSize="10240"/>
I hope it will help
Regards
