Re: [Libguestfs] Python Hivex Assertion Failed

Richard, Thanks for the reply. I'm beginning to think it's Ubuntu that's the problem. I acquired a SOFTWARE hive and ran the code you sent on it and I get the same error. I even upgraded to Python 2.7. My runs: -------- Your code with my software hive -------- emschwe@station12:~/jean2$ cat test-hivex.py #!/usr/bin/python import hivex h = hivex.Hivex("software") r = h.root() node = h.node_get_child(r, "Microsoft") print r print h.node_name(r) print h.node_name(node) emschwe@station12:~/jean2$ ./test-hivex.py python: hivex-py.c:52: get_handle: Assertion `obj' failed. Aborted emschwe@station12:~/jean2$ ----- My version on NTUSER.DAT ----- emschwe@station12:~/jean2$ cat test-hivex.py #!/usr/bin/python import hivex h = hivex.Hivex("NTUSER.004.DAT") r = h.root() node = h.node_get_child(r, "Software") print r print h.node_name(r) print h.node_name(node) emschwe@station12:~/jean2$ ./test-hivex.py python: hivex-py.c:52: get_handle: Assertion `obj' failed.

If you are able to process it on your system, then I'll know it's the installation and I should start all over (again).
