Error mounting vdi from shared SMB location

[ccices]

Hello all,
I am running into this error.

Code: Select all

Failed to open a session for the virtual machine QQTest Win10.
VD: error VERR_NET_OPERATION_NOT_SUPPORTED opening image file '/var/run/user/1000/gvfs/smb-share:server=nas06d14c,share=casedata/VM's/QQTest Win10.vdi' (VERR_NET_OPERATION_NOT_SUPPORTED).

AHCI: Failed to attach drive to Port0 (VERR_NET_OPERATION_NOT_SUPPORTED).
Result Code:

Component: 
ConsoleWrap
Interface: 
IConsole {872da645-4a9b-1727-bee2-5585105b9eed}

I have attached the log as well. I am using Ubuntu 16.04
Any thoughts on how I can resolve this issue?
I did have the VM running by having the virtual HD on the machine, but when I make it on the qnap server share, I get the error message.
Thanks in advance.

Network shares often have file size limits.

Could not open the medium '/run/user/1000/gvfs/smb-share:server=////win10.vdi
VD:error
VERR_NET_OPERATION_NOT_SUPPORTED opening image file '/run/user/1000/gvfs/smb-share:server///win10.vdi
.
Even i have this issue, the .vdi file is on a samba share of a diff machine. I am unable to add or select the .vdi file, it give the above error. Anyone knows faced a similar issue ?
