Hi,
I'm publishing VirtualBox and separate OS Appliance OVA's in Self Service. VirtualBox is installed nicely on client machines, but the OS Appliance is not. In the script it seems to get stuck at the stage where the appliance is imported and the script returns an error. I'd appreciate if anyone could take a look and give me some pointers on what is wrong?
OS appliance is packaged inside a DMG.
Funny thing is that the command "sudo -u $USER VBoxManage import "path to ova...." is working fine when running it when the dmg is mounted manually and visible under /Volumes.
