Unable to Upload vApp to vCloud Director

I am unable to upload a vApp from local computer into vCloud Director v5.1. I am able to upload media from my local computer.

I received the following error in the vcloud-container-debug logs.

[root@vCloud-Director logs]# tail -f vcloud-container-debug.log | grep ERROR

Since this is a test lab prior to production deployment, I am using local storage ( ~8G). The vApp .vmdk is 4G.
Do all the datastores assigned to the resource vCenter of vCloud Director need to be assessible to vCloud Director? How does vCloud Director take it from the $VCLOUD_HOME/data/transfer director to one of the datastore of vcenter?
Your help is appreciated.

Hi

How did you migrate the vApp fro it's orginal location to your local computer? Did you export it as an OVA?

Hi, I did it as OVF, but reading over there I found that maybe my problem is caused because of this http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=203855...

I'll do some tests and I'll let you know.
