I am using VMware Studio 2.6 to create a virutal appliance and I use VMware Workstation 7.1.6 on a Linux Mint 14 virtual machine as the provisioning engine. I tried several times to build a Windows 2008 appliance as well as Ubuntu 10.04.4. On each of the 10 tries, I get the following error message:
16/02/2013 12:40:13 [info] Transporting VM from Studio to provisioning host; this may take a few minutes... |
16/02/2013 12:42:04 [info] Waiting for the transient VM to boot up. |
16/02/2013 12:42:34 [warn] Failed to detect a powered up transient VM on Workstation 192.168.1.14 |
16/02/2013 12:42:34 [error] Encountered a fatal build error! |
In the VM profiles, I only chose to install the OS from the respective ISO images and VMware Tools, nothing more.
Has anyone ever had this problem and how can I debug what's going on exactly?
