Getting errors when creating Virtual Box VM

grstephensJan 4 2011 — edited Jan 12 2012
I've followed the instructions at this link:

http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/databaseappdev-vm-161299.html

They're pretty simple-- download and install VirtualBox, then download 3 files. 2 of them are large, so I knit them together using a copy command.

When I try to import the appliance in the file 'Oracle Developer Days.ovf', it runs for a while, then fails with:

'Failed to import appliance C:\Documents and Settings\grstep\My Documents\VirtualBox VMs\Oracle Developer Days.ovf'
Storage for the medium 'C:\Documents and Settings\grstep\My Documents\VirtualBox VMs\OTN_DD_ROOT.vmdk' is not created.

Details contains this information when I expand it:

Result Code: VBOX_E_INVALID_OBJECT_STATE (0x80BB0007)
Component: Medium
Interface: IMedium {9edda847-1279-4b0a-9af7-9d66251ccc18}

The VirtualBox install seems to be OK, because I can load another appliance in it successfully.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Gary
