@florent @danp Thank you so much for that. I have installed the update and tested an import of a Windows machine with no issues

Regards
Dave

@Danp do you know when the fix will be integrated in to an update?

Thanks
Dave

@florent Thanks
I don't seem to be able to login to XOA console - I have never done this so don't believe I have set a password for this which I believe will be different to the web UI username and password.

I am assuming I need to login to the console to pull the change you have made but this may be integrated in to master soon so I don't need to do this to retrieve the change. Do you know when this may be done so I can just update orchestra from the web UI

Thanks
Dave

from

Hope this helps

Happy to try anything you need me to

Not sure where you are - I'm in the UK but can be around for at least another hour. I will be around over the weekend but not always at my desk so responses may be a little slower

Thanks for your help so far

Dave

@Danp Thanks for the quick response

I have changed to the latest channel and am now on 5.93.1

The VM I am trying to import is shutdown

The successful imports of the Linux VM's were so quick I can do the same with the Windows boxes once its working - this can be done over a weekend so that time is not too critical

I have started the VM and created a snapshot then shut it down again but still get the same results

the detailed message is

Hi,

I am a relative newbie to XCP-ng but have used ESXi for many years. Hopefully I am posting in the right place - please direct me to the correct place if not

Has anyone come across the above error

I am moving a customer from ESXi (free license) to XCP-ng now VMWare have withdrawn the free license

I have used XCP-ng before but only to provide a single VM which was created in that environment

I am trying to use XOA to migrate from ESXi to XCP-ng
(currently on the premium trial but hope to revert to the community edition)

Any Linux based machine migrates without issue but I am seeing the above when trying to migrate a Windows VM to XCP-ng

I have not built the code for XOA I have used the quick deployment option. All updates have been installed. I have seen references to ESXi - XCP-g imports failing and people rolling back to an earlier version but none reference the error I am seeing.

The ESXi is old at 6.5
XCP-ng is 8.2.1
XOA is 5.92.1

If I switch off 'stop at first' error I get a stranger message with less information in it

  "errors": [
    {}
  ],
  "succeeded": {},
  "message": "",
  "name": "Error",
