clonevdi doesn't work - can't create VDI directory...? — at Initial Version

Description

I've used the "VBoxManage clonevdi" command to clone a vdi file 4 times, no problem.

For some reason though, now I can't. When I try, I get this:

VirtualBox Command Line Management Interface Version 2.0.6 (C) 2005-2008 Sun Microsystems, Inc. All rights reserved.

[!] FAILED calling hardDisk->CloneToImage(Bstr(argv[1]), vdiOut.asOutParam(), progress.asOutParam()) at line 3467! [!] Primary RC = NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005) - Operation failed [!] Full error info present: true , basic error info present: true [!] Result Code = NS_ERROR_FAILURE (0x80004005) - Operation failed [!] Text = Could not create a directory 'VDI' to store the image file (VERR_ACCESS_DENIED) [!] Component = HardDisk, Interface: IHardDisk, {fd443ec1-000f-4f5b-9282-d72760a66916} [!] Callee = IHardDisk, {fd443ec1-000f-4f5b-9282-d72760a66916}

The ~/.VirtualBox/VDI directory already exists and has 4 vdi files in it.

Why is it trying to create another directory?
