Ill work on a fix for this next week.

This bug has been fixed.. Please update

Hi Savio, updated to revision 136, but getting the same error. Do I need to do 
something else (in addition to using the update button) ?

Hi, small update:

the bug is repeating when the x-terms are enabled. Otherwise app is proceeding 
to the next step 

Ok Bro.. But please can you take a screenshot of the error on xterms (if 
possible) because i am currently unable to re-produce the error

Hi savio, 

I updated the programme again and right now it is working fine. I will keep you 
posted when I am able to do further testing. 

Thanks again for your effort

how to use update notification file? I want to update to version 1.45

All you have to do is just run the application , and use the update button to 
get the latest version. The latest version contain the latest code :)

I'm running Ubuntu 12.04

When I click on the "Fern Wifi Cracker" from the Dashboard I get the following 
popup:

"Aircrack and other dependencies need root privilege to function, Please run 
application as root"

Solution from another post: Run command in terminal:

sudo python /usr/local/bin/Fern-Wifi-Cracker/execute.py

Q: If there a way to edit the shortcut on the Dashboard to include sudo?

Once I run: sudo python /usr/local/bin/Fern-Wifi-Cracker/execute.py

in the terminal, I get the 'Fern WIFI Cracker' box open. The version say:
 - Fern WIFI Cracker 1.2 - New Update is Available
 - Python Version: 2.7.3 default
 - Aircrack Version: Aircrack-ng 1.1 - (C)
 - Qt Version: 4.9.1

When I click on the download button, 'New Update is Available' changes to 
'Downloading components...' but nothing happens. Terminal outputs the following 
after clicking on the download button:

(32512, 'sh: 2: svn: not found')
Unhandled exception in thread started by <bound method 
mainwindow.update_launcher of <__main__.mainwindow object at 0x2b77cb0>>
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "fern.py", line 264, in update_launcher
    raise urllib2.HTTPError
TypeError: __init__() takes exactly 6 arguments (1 given)

Q: Is there a fix?

In other to allow Fern run as root each time when the icon is clicked, you may 
have to use the enable the root account in ubuntu and use the root account each 
time you want to use Fern.

You can do this by running the following terminal command:
root@host:~# passwd root

you will be asked for a new password, input your desired password, then restart 
the computer and login using the newly activated root account.


Based on the second error:

I would like to ask, Where all the dependencies also installed when you 
installed the program.

I am on a LinuxMint 16 Live USB with persistence. Downlaoded the Fern software 
last week, so should be latest i guess.

After I reinstalled my wi-fi driver I get the same error message when I start 
scanning.


Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/Fern-Wifi-Cracker/core/fern.py", line 617, in scan_wep
    wep_access_file = str(reader('/tmp/fern-log/zfern-wep-01.csv'))        # WEP access point log file
  File "/opt/Fern-Wifi-Cracker/core/functions.py", line 95, in reader
    open_ = open(arg,'r+')
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/tmp/fern-log/zfern-wep-01.csv'
wash: no process found

I'm facing with the same error... and therefore no access points are found.
I'm on Ubuntu 14.04 and I use the below command to run the program:

#gksu python /opt/Fern-Wifi-Cracker/execute.py

Python 2.7.6
Aircrack-ng 1.1
QT 4.10.4

Is there any fix?
Thanks

@sandra 

Please post the error message after you executed the program

It seems that the error was due to the wifi modem driver...
I replaced the official driver for my Broadcom modem with b43, and the
problem solved.

Thank you for your concern.
