Re: Unable to run D-RATS after install


 

Hi Edfel, Kyle

I have to admit I got the same problem when i had installed d-rats on my backup windows 10 PC, but it was before covid, and i don't really recall how i sorted this?out. and now i don't have this issue.?

I guess it was something very easy and quick because at that time?i did not?bothered to add this info to the wiki, (or at least i am not able to find any reference to this....)

NOTE: If anybody knows ho to fix this (or any other valuable info around d-rats!!) we can add a page to the wiki.

About registry: No, drats doesn't use any registry setting or use any specific tool of windows., this is to keep it platform agnostic- D-rats places? a config file? which can be edited with a text editor.?


About the missing folder issue:?

assuming you're running one of the latest versions of D-Rats (0.3.4 to 0.3.9) for the former?ones i? am not sure if the config path was shown in the debug.log),
??
the easiest way to see the config file is, when you get the error window, you shall click to open the debug log and then look at around?line 13,?

in my case the path shown in the debuglog is this one:

Config ? ?: FILE: C:\Users\mauri\AppData\Roaming\D-RATS-EV\d-rats.config

then you can edit (or delete/rename it to force d-rats to create a brand new config file)

in the?config file you can change this parameter pointing to any other existing folder where you have permissions
download_dir = C:\Users\mauri\OneDrive\Desktop\D-RATS Shared

hope this helps.

Hi Maurizio:

Not wanting to hijack the thread from Kyle, just contribute.?

Speaking about my experience, yes I think if the program fails to create the Shared Folder at first, problem IMO will persist.? I tried with administrator, same behavior.? Question I have, the program write some value to Windows registry???

Thanks!

If the folder exist it could be some issue about permissions.

If you Launch drats as aministrator, what happens?

Hi John and Kyle:
I have the same problem in one old Lenovo T430s.? I am able to run D-Rats in another PC (Dell Tower) .? Editing of d-rats is not feasible as the error only produces a debug file.? I have even tried copy of the configuration and even folders from the PC where D-rats runs perfectly and editing and error stills.? Have tried creating the shared folders and editing configuration. Nothing.

Both machines running Win 10 64 bit.? Have no idea or clue. Have tried D-Rats 0.3.9 all Windows options

Thanks!
