Hello Team, 

Packer is not able to create Virtual machine image on the top of centos7 in Windows8.1 OS and gave the below error.

Build 'vmware-iso' finished.

==> Builds finished. The artifacts of successful builds are:

--> vmware-iso: 'vmware' provider box: centos-7-1-x64-vmware.box

Here no packer image is not avalible. 

Please find the attachment.

From the part of the log you provided everything looks fine. Build finished shows that the build is successful and you should have a centos-7-1-x64-vmware.box file.

(The attachment is missing)

If you expected something else or think there is something wrong describe your expectation in detail and provide a example template file and full log from PACKER_LOG=1 packer build template.json

[balubhai555]

these are 1)template.json  2)software.sh 3)Xampp.sh files. 

My goal is to create a vmware image for the above files as well as vmware vagrant box.

Please observer and tell me the required changes to create vmware image along this  centos-7-1-x64-vmware.box . 

"output_directory" : "C:/Users/miracle/Desktop/CompleteMSBImage1",

But packer automatically closes the vmware and the created output directory.  I am expecting this output directory as we will get when we build a packer image file. So here i am expecting CompleteMSBImage1 folder which contains the below  files (ScreenShot(1086.png))

Please suggest a good way

Add "keep_input_artifact": true to your vagrant post-processor. See https://www.packer.io/docs/templates/post-processors.html

After adding "keep_input_artifact": true the result was the same. Graefully Halting virtual machine.  No image created and all the files deleted automatically. please Help me..

 

And are we do the installation of Xampp7-linux(64).installer.run using packer? 

I am assuming due to the installation of Xampp7, It goes to halting automatically. Suggest me please. 

Thank you.

can you share a gist of the new template and update logs?
