This issue was caused by the fact that Chrome on my mac was extracting the OVA file automatically.
After disabling auto opening, I was able to open the OVA file.

Do you have access to or can you download Virtualbox and try it there? I am just wondering if the issue is with the file that is being imported or if the issue is with VMware.
I know this is really a solution but was curious if anyone had tried that as an option.
btw - I have imported this file into Virtualbox on my Mac and it is working as expected.
