Hi All--
I am having quite a time hot-cloning an Ubuntu 12.04 VM from one vHost to another vHost.
Both vHosts are running ESXi 5.0.0 build 623860. I am using the VMWare vCenter Converter Standalone Client 5.5 build-1362012. The VM in question is running Ubuntu 12.04.2. The VM is using LVM, which I have read may have an impact.
When running the converter, I get to 97-99% done, then get the error as follows:
an error occured during the conversion: grubinstaller::installgrub: /usr/lib/vmware-converter/installgrub.sh failed with return code: 126, and message: chroot: can't execute '/vmware-updategrub.sh': exec format error
error running vmware-updategrub.sh through chroot into /mnt/p2v-src-root
/usr/lib/vmware-converter/installgrub.sh: line 143: /mnt/p2v-src-root: is a directory
I have looked all over trying to find anyone that has received that exact error message, but cannot. I have tried the steps outlined here but have been unsuccessful.
If anyone has any insight into why this error is occuring, how to fix it, etc, it would be greatly appreciated!!
