For a proper diagnoses of this you will needto get look in the View

Composer log which can be found at:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\VMware\View

Composer\Logs\vmware-viewcomposer.log

Thank you. I think I figured it out. I was trying to build the clones on a ESX 3.5i U2. Once I moved to a host with U3, it worked.
