Disk not created #68

Open sebyku opened 5 years ago

sebyku commented 5 years ago

Hi,

I doesn't start as the default.wmdk disk is not created. I am using the VMWare-Vix-1.6.2

Cdt,

SK

Can confirm. A .vmdk isn't created so the machine can't run, but the machine is created specifying that it needs a disk.

I have managed to work around this:

  1. Launch Quickstart
  2. Wait for "Waiting for VM to come online"
  3. Navigate to the VM's location (C:\Users\YOUR-USER-HERE.docker\machine\machines\default)
  4. Import the .vmx file in your library (like with Workstation Player)
  5. Edit the machine's setting to remove the harddisk
  6. Launch the machine
  7. After a bit (the waiting countdown is 120s) quickstart should continue and complete succesfully

Is this still an issue?

viacheslav-mik commented 3 years ago

Yes, can confirm on v1.1.0 Note, that I did not ran into this issue when creating machine for the first time.

Update. Probably occurs when VMWare is installed not in the standard path (c:/files x86/..)
