Autopsy 4.12 fails to start #2497

Closed obilodeau closed 5 years ago

obilodeau commented 5 years ago

Bug description

Autopsy 4.12.0 doesn't start.

Steps to reproduce

Actual result: 

org.netbeans.InvalidException: StandardModule:org.sleuthkit.autopsy.core jarFile: /opt/autopsy/autopsy/modules/org-sleuthkit-autopsy-core.jar: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/sleuthkit/datamodel/SleuthkitJNI

The requested file is not part of that jar.

Expected result:

Autopsy would start.

Screenshots

Info for developers

Device: Dell XPS 15 GNU/Linux distribution: Arch Tool version: 4.12

I'm still investigating a bit but I'm about to give up.

Got further along

autopsy-4 12-java-runtime

obilodeau commented 5 years ago

To resolve that last issue, I needed to makepkg sleuthkit-java on my system where I use java-8-openjdk as my default java environment. Maybe the binary package should be built with a more compatible java version since it seems that the autopsy package is built like that.

I also needed to manually install java8-openjfx. I don't see how the java-runtime and java-openjfx dependencies could be adjusted so that the version of java installed pulls in the right java-openjfx version... Status quo doesn't bother me though.

For the first issue (NoClassDefFound), I'm going to send a PR: there's a problem in the symlink.

Hello @obilodeau. Thanks for the hints, we can simply add https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/jre8-openjdk/ for the java-runtime dependency and that will solve the issue, I'm going to do some tests.

@Edu4rdSHL @obilodeau thanks for working on this. The problem does exist with the version bump to 4.13.0-2. I get the same error message as @obilodeau:

org.netbeans.InvalidException: StandardModule:org.sleuthkit.autopsy.core jarFile: /opt/autopsy/autopsy/modules/org-sleuthkit-autopsy-core.jar: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/sleuthkit/datamodel/SleuthkitJNI

For me the problem went away after applying the fix presented in https://github.com/BlackArch/blackarch/issues/2497#issuecomment-543466759. I used the most recently available package from AUR (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/sleuthkit-java/), which has also been bumped to 4.7, and built it with makepkg. Hope that helps someone else.
