Grinder/Metasm is not working under Ruby 2.0 #2

Closed kernelGadaffi closed 10 years ago

kernelGadaffi commented 11 years ago

Hi,

I installed a grinder node version 0.5-dev on a Windows7 with a 32bit ruby installation. Everything was alright until the debugger server process starts. I use ruby 2.0.0:

                   ______     _           __
                  / ____/____(_)___  ____/ /__  _____
                 / / __/ ___/ / __ \/ __  / _ \/ ___/
                / /_/ / /  / / / / / /_/ /  __/ /
                \____/_/  /_/_/ /_/\__,_/\___/_/

So i thought it was a metasm error but the following statement runs and gave a '1' as a result:

ruby -r metasm -e 'p Metasm::VERSION'

Do you know why? thanks,

Hi,

Sounds like a Ruby 2.0/Metasm issue, in that the version of Metasm shipped with grinder, (specifically the dynamic loader dll generated by metasm) is not compatible with ruby 2.0. (dynldr-windows-ia32-19.so from your log below)

Metasm can build its own dynldr library[0] so you may have some luck generating a new one, but your easiest bet is to use Ruby 1.9.7 for now.

When I have a little time I will add in Ruby v2 support for grinder.

Regards,

@stephenfewer it would be great if you just update your installation wiki, because it says install the latest version..

stephenfewer commented 11 years ago

@mtimur Nicely spotted, just edited the Wiki, cheers.
