Updating FLOSS #1

Open RubiksHnK opened 6 years ago

RubiksHnK commented 6 years ago

FLOSS was working during FLAREon when I went to update the VM tools I received an error I can't reproduce since the FLOSS icon fails to run it and defaults to a CMD window.

Downloaded the Floss zip file from FireEye's site for install. Ran build and install. Error - pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'vivisect' distribution was not found and is required by floss, viv-utils

cup floss and choco install floss command says floss is not installed. Installing. Error - The package was not found. Possible that the package exist but the version does not.

floss fail

Attempting another "cup all" after that I suppose that I could just restore VM snapshot unless you guys have some secret. =)

The easiest way to get access to FLOSS is to download the standalone nightly builds. Links to these binaries are on the FLOSS github page. Here's a link to the 64-bit Windows binary: http://s3.amazonaws.com/build-artifacts.floss.flare.fireeye.com/appveyor/dist/floss64.exe

I don't think you'll need to use the source distribution unless you plan on making changes to the code.

This is likely an issue with the update process. Peter is looking into it.

This issue is specific to FLARE VM. Within FLARE VM Python was expected to be located in C:\Program File\Python27 but during the upgrade it got installed to C:\Python27. To fix this you need to reinstall Python within FLARE VM:

cuninst -f python2
cinst python2

Please let us know if that works for you.
