OVA import fails always

Hi, I'm running 4.3.8.2-1.el7 (just updated engine to see if it helps) and I haven't been able to import vms in OVA format, I've tried many appliances downloaded from the web but couldn't get them to work. Any hints? Regards

If the problem is with the upload process specifically it’s likely that you do not have the ovirt engine certificate installed in your browser. On Thu, Feb 27, 2020 at 11:34 PM Juan Pablo Lorier <jplorier@gmail.com> wrote:

I haven't tried many but for one I just untarred the thing to get the disk image file and created a new VM with that. Sometimes the ova file is compressed/assembled in some way that might not be compatible. On Fri, Feb 28, 2020 at 1:12 AM Jayme <jaymef@gmail.com> wrote:

yes, because none of those are supported. OVA doesn’t mean much, it’s just a generic “wrapper” for anything inside, you need to specifically support OVA which some other app exports. Currently oVirt supports importing VMware’s OVA and its own OVAs Thanks, michal
Thanks

This is not a disk upload, which works fine, this is an import. It loads locally from one hypervisor, and the same problem happens on the other nodes. I can load the ova, select the vm to import and see all the params, then in the import process, it fails. Regards El 28/2/20 a las 03:11, Jayme escribió:
