Chip, That was the "initial" thing I tried, just to see if it was a permissions-type issue. I then looked at the downloaded ova and it was read-only for the user. -rw-r--r--@ 1 raj.subrahmanian 382466515 1561669120 Sep 24 11:37 DevCloud.ova I changed the permissions and then everything worked as it should. Of course, I could have checked the permissions first instead of the other thing I did. All, thanks for your help. I promise my next problem will be more fun than this :)
