[sleuthkit-users] failure to open autopsy.log

[<al...@ma...>]

Dear users,

I need some assistance please.

I have installed autopsy and Sk for the first time yesterday to look at my
disk on my laptop.

Both were downloaded from the Ubuntu software repository and installed
correctly, in the order SK then autopsy.

I ran Autopsy from the Terminal, and got the message about opening an HTML
session but then I got the error message (immediately):

"Cannot open log: autopsy.log at /usr/share/autopsy/lib//Print.pm at line
383."

(Note that the number of '/' characters are exactly as per the error message.

No mention is made of which module is failing.

I am running the latest Autopsy and SK as per the ppa repository and am
running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.

Anyone able to assist here?

many thanks
Alan Brown
