Import failed because .ova did not pass OVF specification conformance or virtual hardware compliance checks

I am trying to import .ova file into vmware workstation 15 player (exported from virtual box), it fails by saying that Import failed because .ova did not pass OVF specification conformance or virtual hardware compliance checks. But, it is working in virtual box properly.

Can anyone please provide the solution.

Thank you,

Hi There,

What was the .ova version you have selected while exporting it from VB? I would suggest go for .9 or 1.0 and then test it.

The version of .ovf file is 1.0.

Then tried with 0.9 version, a list errors shown.

Any other idea please.
