#18730 new defect
Ignore extra entries in OVF manifest file (.mf)
| Reported by: | darkdragon | Owned by: | |

Description
When a faulty program adds additional entries in the manifest file [1], VirtualBox crashes sometimes without error, sometimes with the error "NS_ERROR_CALL_FAILED (0x800706BE)". I propose that it should instead just ignore these entries.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
Further, syntax errors like a misplaced closing bracket ")" in the filename should lead to a parsing error which should result in a understandable warning instead of abortion of the import process.
