I am trying for couple of days to import ovf files to virtualbox, but the process keeps running for hours without any result. Did anyone face this issue ? Please help me with the issue !

Mac OS : High Sierra 10.13.3
VirtualBox : 5.2.8

syslog :

Can you be a little bit more specific than that? What OVF files? Example needed. Also, can you create a new VM instead of importing an existing one?

As in... stuck? Do you have to kill it? What does the ActivityMonitor show?

Any chance of uninstalling Symantec?

I am trying to import Hortonworks Data Platform Sandbox v2.6.4, so don't have an option to create one.
While doing an import, I can see vboxSVC going to 100% CPU utilization. I even waited for an hour but there was no progress update on the progress bar, so had to kill the process.

Sorry Can't unistall symantec, this being official laptop.

I asked what happens if you try to create a new VM. You always have that option.

And I don't really know what "Hortonworks Data Platform Sandbox v2.6.4" is or isn't, so I can't know why it's failing. Is there a link for the OVF that we could try? Did you make sure that the download was appropriate? Was there a checksum that you could compare?

Talk to the "officials" about your antivirus, if it's an official laptop.

The OVF which I am using can be downloaded from https://downloads-hortonworks.akamaized ... 8_1428.ova
I already verified the md5 and its a match.

Seems there was some issue with the ovf file provided by the vendor, got the latest ova file from them and it got imported without any issues.

Glad you got it going. Marking as [WorksForMe].
