Virtual box error. Fails to clone the virtual machine

Asked By Marco P Hamm 130 points N/A Posted on - 07/17/2013

Hi,

I am unable to use Virtual Machine properly and the error says that‘ Failed to clone the virtual machine’. Is this problem with a server? I have tried to start it manually but could not fix the problem. VM’s are on DRBD. What’s wrong? I need help.

Thanks.

Virtual box error. Fails to clone the virtual machine

There are lots of trial solutions for this problems but no certain way to know which, so I am tying all the option that I can find:

1. Try un-mount and eject VBoxGuestAdditions.iso which might be mounted on the Vbox causing the problem.
2. Run this command as whole “c:program filesoraclevirtualboxvboxmanage” clonevdi “c:path to existing .vdi” “c:path to new .vdi”, once it is finished open virtual box and build 'NEW' with 'Existing Hard Disk' with 'new.vdi'
