Hello,

I've got a virtual machine running Windows 7 which uses a VDI and VBOX file.
When I tried to convert the VDI file to an IMG file with VBoxManage I get an error.

Input (Using CMD on Windows 8.1 x64)

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\VBoxManage.exe" VBoxManage clonehd windows7.vdi win7.img --format RAW

Output

Code: Select all

c:\Users\Dominique\VirtualBox VMs\windows7>"C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\V
BoxManage.exe" clonehd windows7.vdi win7.img --format RAW
VBoxManage.exe: error: Could not find file for the medium 'c:\Users\Dominique\Vi
rtualBox VMs\windows7\windows7.vdi' (VERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND)
VBoxManage.exe: error: Details: code VBOX_E_FILE_ERROR (0x80bb0004), component M

vType, enmAccessMode, fForceNewUuidOnOpen, pMedium.asOutParam())" at line 178 of
 file VBoxManageDisk.cpp

I searched the internet for a few hours but can't find what I am doing wrong.
Is there any known fix for this?

Something is not correct in your path as these errors are specific and AFAIK are alway right. Try using absolute paths in you command.

Is VBoxManage lying? There is actually a file named 'c:\Users\Dominique\VirtualBox VMs\windows7\windows7.vdi'?
