      Thank you! @Darkbeldin can you check if you can reproduce? If yes, we'll escalate to @florent 🙂

              @olivierlambert @fataugie thanks for the head up , I am on it
              (to be fair there is like 12 sub format of vmdk from only a descriptor file linked to a raw, to a multi level sparse compressed file )

                @florent I tried a barebones cloud disk from Ubuntu (22.04) in OVA format last night for grins and giggles...... and that failed with the same message.

                  Any updates on this?
                  As of this morning's build (afadc) it's still an issue.

                        @florent SUCCESS!

                        Just grabbed and built XOCE with that branch, ran an import and it worked just as expected.

                        I'll probably run a half dozen more imports over the next day or so. If anything weird pops up, I'll report back but this looks like it fixed the problem.

                        Thank you, I appreciate it!

                          @fataugie We'll merge it to master ASAP
                          thank you for your report

                          (If you want to import a lot of ova, maybe you can use the new import from vmware feature ? )

                            @florent I would love to....but I transitioned from Hyper-V a few months ago. No VMWare to be found around here.

                            Without fail, these OVAs will be downloads from a variety of applications.

                            Thanks again!
