vboxmanage import causes crash on Debian 10

[drhuh]

Hi,

I have two machines, a laptop running Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS and a server running Debian 10, both have Virtual Box 6.0.14r133895 installed. I exported a VMware machine and want to import this instance now. Therefore I use the command

Code: Select all

vboxmanage import tmp/Tine20.ova --vsys 0 --ostype Ubuntu_64 --vmname Tine20test --basefolder /data/vbox

This works fine on the Ubuntu machine, but always causes the Debian machine to crash. I tried it about ten times and it never succeeded! There is no entry in /var/log/messages or similar files, the machine just reboots without a notice. If I don't call the vboxmanage command, then the server is running without any problems.

Does anyone have an idea what might cause the crash and how to prevent this? Thank's for your help!
