Sometimes at Monitor mode pressing CTRL+C cause program exit

frantisekz commented 12 years ago

Sometimes, when i Am at monitor mode and press ctrl+c, program will exit. But, it shouldn't . PRessing ctrl+c at monitor mode should end monitoring and offers next steps (sometimes, it do so).

And now correct behavior:

Sorry for my bad English.

I ran into this bug during development but I could not reproduce it consistently.

What operating system are you running? What version of python (python -V)?

I will let you know if I find a fix for this in the mean time.

frantisekz commented 12 years ago

Ubuntu 12.04 Beta (almost Beta 2 :D), x86_64, stock kernel with pacthes through DKMS (driver for cpu fan, etc.) Python 2.7.3rc2 And yes, this bug cannot be reproduced :(

You could change the shortcut to 'q' instead of CTRL+C even if you can't reproduce the bug (I think it will solve it). BTW great work on this.

Had the same problem here with CTRL+C on Ubuntu 12.04 beta2. But today with the latest updates it seems to be solved

derv82 commented 12 years ago

I'll leave this issue open in case other people have similar problems.

Thanks everyone for having patience on this issue.

I have the same issue. Pretty annoying! I am using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and Python 2.7.3. Can we not just change the key to say CTRL + R (ready) for example.

I am currently working on a module that will replace the Try: Except KeyboardInterrupt: way of breaking a loop. Kind of busy so it might take a while.

Sounds good, but seriously, no rush.

Update: I found the source of the bug, it was me using gksudo to run a bash script on my desktop.

Running:
$ gksudo python wifite.py crashes on Ctrl+C while running: $ sudo python wifite.py does not crash on Ctrl+C.

Also, the porting in a new input method was really buggy, hoaky, and dumb. Abandoning the mod.

Hi guys, I'm having this issue right now. Whenever I press CTRL+C to stop scanning, wifite closes itself.

I tried running wifite with the following commands:

$ wifite
$ python wifite.py
$ python2.7 wifite.py

but nothing seems to work.

this is my output.
