Epic Failure of VirtualBox 2.2.4 ???

[mrphantastic]

So I want to compact my VDI and I typed this:

cd 'my VDI directory'
VboxManage modifyvdi myfile.vdi compact

And I get this:

bash: VboxManage: command not found

Anybody know why this thing is crapping out? This will give me like 7GB of free space and I really want it.

I even reinstalled the whole VirtualBox program, kernel and all recompiled and everything.

Any ideas?

VboxManage modifyvdi myfile.vdi compact
bash: VboxManage: command not found


Epic fail all right.

That's a CAPITAL "B" in VBoxManage.

Thanks for the help, I read about case-sensitivity errors and I guess I missed one. Ironically, 'missing one' doesn't usually invoke such animosity from people. Is there a reason you feel the need to be nasty on a support forum of all places?

I'd ask you the same question, I made the effort to look this up elsewhere as well and capitalization was a prominent problem however, it never resulted in such blatant disrespect. I'm not a n00b, mind both of you, I'm just not immune to mistakes.

I didn't mean to be nasty; just terse. Sorry your emotional feathers got ruffled.

C'mon man, it was mostly funny because of the title of the thread. You brought it on yourself. Everyone makes mistakes.
