Even if I export a native Virtualbox Virtual MAchine as OVF 0.9, I can't import it back. Same error:

  • Create a virtual machine in virtualbox
  • Export it as ovf 0.9
  • Try to import

There is a thread about this problem in the forum:

It looks like xml-parsing just fails for OVF 0.9, even if the envelopes conform to the standard

I've recently tried to import an appliance (Fortigate) but I'm getting the error listed above, but with Virtualbox 4.3.12 - is there a regression?

Failed to import appliance /vmachs/fortinet/fortigate1-64bit/Fortigate-VM64.hw07_vmxnet2.ovf.

Could not open the medium storage unit '/vmachs/fortinet/fortigate1-64bit/fortios.vmdk'.

VD: error VERR_INTERNAL_ERROR opening image file '/vmachs/fortinet/fortigate1-64bit/fortios.vmdk' (VERR_INTERNAL_ERROR).
