Just tried it in my lab on 6.7u1 - deployed not a problem, will check it in my U2 lab when it boots. Did you select the 3 files , .mf, .ovf and .vmdk in the wizard?

[johncol]

Just tried it in my 6.7 u2 lab - all good there as well

I'm getting the same exact error here importing an OVA.

[Jase_L]

I just upgraded to build 13473784, which was released today.  Same issue.

[johncol]

same OVA or all OVA's?

[BWatCS]

I am also getting the same error with UI while uploading an OVA (3.5GB Size).

The same OAV deployed via cli 'ovftools' and the VM working fine.

I see both are using firefox - can you try a different browser as a test?

[vladcomeow]

I get the same error on Microsoft Edge 42.17134.1.0 and on Chrome 74.0.3729.131

[vladcomeow]

after updating the ESXi Embedded Host Client I was able to import OVF images via the UI

Keep in mind that you might see this bug ESXi Embedded Host Client - Bugs​ it goes away after a few restarts of the host

[Jase_L]

I've only tried with one OVA.  I was able to successfully import that OVA in VMware Workstation, so I believe the OVA is good.

[Frenzy000]

Got the same problem. I decided through Firefox. When an error occurs, click Esc. The error disappears, the finish button is available.OVA import succeeded.

[MayurPatel]

6.7.0 Update 2 (Build 13006603)

Same problem and tried Chrome and Firefox and when I hit ESC the entire screen simply disappears and have to start the upload all over again. Haven't been able to upload OVF backups.

I was facing the same error using ovftool solved the issue for me

[ktmor85]

OVF import only worked for me using OVFTool. I can't find any KB information on this issue. Is VMware is looking at this bug issue?

[Amitm1]

Is there any resolution for this issue? I am using 6.7.2 and having exactly the same issue. I also tried different browsers with no success.

Interestingly i had issue with exporitng the VM as well. It was downloading all files except *.mf file. I managed to fix the export issue using Mozilla browser. However no success in importing OVF template.

[FilipkCZ]

Any solution?

[venereo]

We also ran into this issue with 6.7U2. If you upgrade the embedded host to the version on the following page, the error is fixed (it seems like a downgrade):

https://labs.vmware.com/flings/esxi-embedded-host-client

Upload the vib into the datastore and install it with the following command

[root@ESXI~] esxcli software vib install -v /vmfs/volumes/datastore1/esxui-signed-12086396.vib
