Error trying to create VHD from another virtual disk
Posted: 4. Dec 2020, 18:29
I have tried this with 5.2.44 32 bit on windows and 6.1.16 64 bit on windows
I have tried using copy from within the media manager and also from the command line
In all cases it ran for a couple of minutes or more and failed in the final seconds with a VBOX_E_FILE_ERROR 0x80bb0004 in MediumWrap
I wondered if it was the dynamic VDI file so I converted this using the command line to a fixed size VDI which worked fine
I tried converting this to a VHD with the same error at the same point in the cycle
I tried using media manager copy and from VDI to VMDK and this worked fine as well
I tried converting this to a VHD with the same error at the same point in the cycle
I tried the same VDI to VHD conversion under Ubuntu and that didn't work either
So I have come to the conclusion that VboxManage cannot produce VHD files, unless you know better
