VERR_ZIP_ERROR on import

[arjones85]

Hi,

I am attempting to export a Windows XP VM on a Windows 7 host as an OVA file, and then import the VM on a new host. The export works fine without any errors given, however importing on the new host is giving the error: "VERR_ZIP_ERROR".

Google searches is not leading to a single post that could assist me with understanding what is going wrong in the process. I see a "Cannot find file for the medium" error, but that makes no sense. Of course it can't find the file, it hasn't imported it yet! :)

Screenshot attached.

Here is the vboxsvc.log:

That didn't save the error very well, here it is attached as a txt file.

Please reopen if still relevant with a recent VirtualBox release.
