Can't clone vdi with vboxmanage VERR_INVALID_PARAMETER

[zigzig]

hello,

when i try to clone a vdi disk, I have this error msg :



path and filename are correct.

What is the problem ? There isn't any restrictions on drive G:

I'm on Vista pro 64 with VB 2.2.0

THX a lot

One more thing :


when i try to change uuid of the file, it seems that it works but not really :

I create a vdi file in virtualbox and install an os. After, I make a copy of this file (with windows explorer, not with vboxmanage).
After, I try to change UUID :

Ok ? No, if I try to use the copy in virtualbox->error : same UUID than a file already registred and if I make a binary compare of the 2 files, they're identical.

So, setvdiuuid seems to work but no. And it is the same with sethduuid.

I don't understand.

Any idea ?

Try the clone command without the quotes in path names. Also, CLONE, may be a reserved word - not sure about that though.

THX for answer.

I tried this, no quote in the path and name testmoi.vdi to the clone file but same result, doesn't work.

As system doesn't let vboxmanage writing on the disk. But, I'm on vista pro 64 with admin rights so ...it should work but it doesn't work.

strange.

Did you open that cmd prompt with admin rights?

Yes I did. My acount is admin.

I run cmd with "execute as admin" and same problem.
