[sleuthkit-users] FileCount Bug in Sample Autopsy Module?

[Justin G. <jus...@gm...>]

Hi all,

I'm having trouble getting the following function to work properly in the
Sample DataSource Ingest Module.

List<AbstractFile> docFiles = fileManager.findFiles(dataSource, "%.doc");

docFiles is always reported with 0 elements in it, even though my
datasource is a logical file set containing 2000+ doc files with a ".doc"
file extension.

Can someone confirm this problem or look into it?

I've tried both the Python and Java sample modules. Same results.  Here are
the links to the sample modules:

* SampleDataSourceIngestModule.java (
https://github.com/sleuthkit/autopsy/blob/develop/Core/src/org/sleuthkit/autopsy/examples/SampleDataSourceIngestModule.java
)

* ingestmodule.py (
https://github.com/sleuthkit/autopsy/blob/develop/pythonExamples/ingestmodule.py
)
