VBoxManage.exe: error: Appliance import failed

[brettstack]

I'm getting this error on vagrant up, running on Windows 8.1, VirtualBox 4.3.10, Vagrant 1.6.0.

The only modifications I made to the Vagrantfile aside from setting config.vm.box was:

config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |vb|
    # Don't boot with headless mode
    vb.gui = true

    # Use VBoxManage to customize the VM. For example to change memory:
    vb.customize ["modifyvm", :id, "--memory", "2048"]
  end

Command line output:

There was an error while executing `VBoxManage`, a CLI used by Vagrant
for controlling VirtualBox. The command and stderr is shown below.

And if you turn that changes off it works?

[brettstack]

Disregard. The error is obvious: VERR_DISK_FULL. I changed it to write to my D: and I'm now encountering an "invalid state" error:

The guest machine entered an invalid state while waiting for it
to boot. Valid states are 'starting, running'. The machine is in the
'gurumeditation' state. Please verify everything is configured
properly and try again.

If the provider you're using has a GUI that comes with it,
it is often helpful to open that and watch the machine, since the
GUI often has more helpful error messages than Vagrant can retrieve.
For example, if you're using VirtualBox, run `vagrant up` while the
VirtualBox GUI is open.

I get this error with and without the gui settings.

Unfortunately this is VirtualBox issue that I can't resolve and never faced.

I am getting the same issue. Anyone solved this so far?

[myothandatoe-mbridge]

I faced same problem because of having two vagrant files in same folder for my project.
