Im talking about the VM im running on my own pc

[eager fulcrum]

Yeah, connect to the VPN directly from that VM

Otherwise you will have issues with reverse shells, hosting webservers and stuff like that.

[timid ocean]

Alright

[daring star]

hi I'm having an issue with File Upload Vulns room

when deployed the machine and open a browser I got a 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable error

also when I try to connect to demo.uploadvulns.thm the URL si not resolved

[eager fulcrum]

Did you add it to /etc/hosts like the tasks tell you to?

[daring star]

yep

[eager fulcrum]

There's a whole task dedicated to adding it to /etc/hosts

And if the URL is not resolving, you haven't done that correctly

[daring star]

uhm I guess I got what could be happening

And if the URL is not resolving, you haven't done that correctly... got it, let me check that

thanks @eager fulcrum

this is my current /etc/hosts after apply the instuction command : echo "10.10.141.159 overwrite.uploadvulns.thm shell.uploadvulns.thm java.uploadvulns.thm annex.uploadvulns.thm magic.uploadvulns.thm jewel.uploadvulns.thm" | sudo tee -a /etc/hosts ➜ / cat /etc/hosts

but the URL still not working

[eager fulcrum]

It didn't add demo

So demo won't work

[eager fulcrum]

You have multiple VPNs running most likely

Kill them all

nope

i have 0

thats the problem'

[eager fulcrum]

You could argue, or you could try it

You didn't include the full output, so I'm going off what little information you provided

But that error is usually seen when you have multiple VPN connections running at once, and it breaks ALL of them

[novel token]

im rebooting hold on

[eager fulcrum]

Well that's not what I asked you to do

So I give up. You argued, then didn't follow the basic troubleshooting.

[novel token]

damn ight

works now

[eager fulcrum]

Ok, so it resolves, but I don't think you're told to use that URL?

[daring star]

but, when try to resolve by browser, got the same 503 error as before

[eager fulcrum]

Did you read the task?

Please note that demo.uploadvulns.thm will be used for all demonstrations; however, this site is not available in the uploaded VM. It is purely for demonstrative purposes.

[daring star]

yes I read

[eager fulcrum]

Ok, but you skipped over that sentence?

Because you're not meant to be able to load it

it's working exactly as intended

[cursive pumice]

Hey quick question, I updated burp suite with the shell script and now I have 2 versions of burp on my kali machine. How do I remove the version installed with the shell script?

[eager fulcrum]

#infosec-general

[daring star]

ok. so, how suppose I be able to upload an image, as is described in the task?

task 4 is showing that URL

[eager fulcrum]

`Now, let's put this into practice.

Open your web browser and navigate to overwrite.uploadvulns.thm. Your goal is to overwrite a file on the server with an upload of your own.`

please read all of the text.

[daring star]

got you, thanks @eager fulcrum

gpg2john command not found after installing john?

[naive dust]

getting connection timing out when connecting to my victim machine

I already set LPORT 2468

[novel token]

maybe im doing something wrong but idk

[eager fulcrum]

Screenshots please @naive dust

[novel token]

ok

[eager fulcrum]

#infosec-general as it's not THM related. Issues here are usually site or VPN related.

[halcyon flint]

hello, please would you help me to fix my problem with openvpn to connect to tryhackme network , In fact my openvpn can't connect and I find this in the log 'routines:get_name:no start line', I believe that it is an issue related to the format of certif but I can't fix it, any help please.

[novel token]

oh sorry then

[eager fulcrum]

Go to THm, regenerate your certificate, wait 30-60 seconds, and download it again

[naive dust]

@novel token

[still estuary]

I started my attack box and it errored saying "Failed to connect". I disconnected and tried to relaunch and it says I can only connect once a day

[eager fulcrum]

Yep that's the case

@naive dust 1. That LHOST is incorrect

[naive dust]

What's the LHOST?

[eager fulcrum]

2. The port is not open on the target machine or you're not correctly connected to the VPN

!vpnscript

[sharp bison]

TryHackMe

Use our VPN troubleshooting script to diagnose common issues!

https://github.com/tryhackme/openvpn-troubleshooting

[eager fulcrum]

LHOST needs to be your VPN IP, ip a s tun0 to show it

[novel token]

why did i get pinged lol

[naive dust]

would it be 17 ?

[halcyon flint]

same thing, i got this error: 27/11/2020 à 23:17:45 EVENT: X509::parse_pem: error in cert:: error:0909006C:PEM routines:get_name:no start line

[novel token]

ooof the vpn is getting 30 mbps max

sucks

[eager fulcrum]

Then try a different server

[eager fulcrum]

The THM VPN doesn't touch your internet traffic, therefore this is not a TryHackMe related issue.

[halcyon flint]

I already tried them all, and i got same problem

[eager fulcrum]

Did you definitely wait 30-60 seconds before redownloading?

[halcyon flint]

yes

[novel token]

probably something else as i have 10 gbit

[eager fulcrum]

After pressing regenerate?

[halcyon flint]

yes, sure

[eager fulcrum]

Again, not tryhackme related.

[novel token]

yea prolly

[eager fulcrum]

So it doesn't go here.

[novel token]

-__-

k

[naive dust]

So would I need to connect to port 64 or 17 based on my ports here in this pic?

[eager fulcrum]

No.

[eager fulcrum]

Your LHOST needs to be set to 10.2.51.220 because that's your VPN IP

But please run the VPN script

Because if it's timing out, you're not properly connected most likely.

[naive dust]

do i need to get out of icecast interface?

to run !vpnscript

[wind wedge]

Click the link and it tells you what to do

[eager fulcrum]

Open a new terminal

@halcyon flint Why are you replying to a completely unrelated message?

[naive dust]

How do i donwload the vpns script from here?

[toxic python]

Click on it

And then click download

[naive dust]

There is no download button

[toxic python]

Then click the green download button

And then listen to termy instead of me

[civic lodge]

you can use this command to download it wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tryhackme/openvpn-troubleshooting/master/thm-troubleshoot

and then chmod it

[naive dust]

chmod +x or chmod 777

[toxic python]

x

[civic lodge]

but don't run commands strangers on the web tells you to without knowing what they do first, this command will send a get request to that url and save it to a file

you can check the url yourself, to be sure it is safe

[toxic python]

Especially if it’s elf telling you something

[naive dust]

dang

i just ran it

he has owned me

[toxic python]

[naive dust]

so chmod +x then the path?

or chmod 777

[civic lodge]

chmod +x is better

[naive dust]

okay now i chmod

then what

[civic lodge]

execute it

./file

have you done learn linux room?

[naive dust]

i get this

[toxic python]

Then pray to the vpn gods

[naive dust]

invalid file (bad magic number): Exec format error

[naive dust]

yes

I already completed Get Started and NMAP

I'm on metasploit

[toxic python]

Are you using a Linux vm?

[naive dust]

Yes

[toxic python]

Get out of metasploit

[naive dust]

parrot os

yes i'm out of metaslploit

im in the openvpn troubleshoot interface

[toxic python]

There’s no interface

Can you show a screenshot

[civic lodge]

it asks for sudo if you dont run sudo iirc

[civic lodge]

just type Y

oh wait

you are in normal terminal

[naive dust]

that is correct

[civic lodge]

you used wget in which url?

[toxic python]

unzip {file}

Yea why do you have a zip

What is going on

Who am I

[naive dust]

the one you gave me

[toxic python]

O

[naive dust]

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tryhackme/openvpn-troubleshooting/master/thm-troubleshoot

[toxic python]

I am Blob

Ok unzip that bad boy

[civic lodge]

NT AUTHORITY/SYSTEM

[naive dust]

little alien elf can you please help me

[toxic python]

I feel so powerful

I’m not an alien 🤬

I’m a blob

[naive dust]

i meant Termack

[civic lodge]

lol

poor blob

blob is helping

[toxic python]

He’s not an alien either

[civic lodge]

he told you to run unzip in the file

[toxic python]

Why does Blob always get forgotten

[civic lodge]

you sure?

[toxic python]

[toxic python]

Not really no I thought you were a video game character

[naive dust]

do i cd inside Downloads to do the unzip command?

[toxic python]

You should already be in downloads

But if not, yea

[naive dust]

ok did i do this correctly?

[civic lodge]

yee

[naive dust]

Okay now what lol

[civic lodge]

cd into openvpn-troubl....

[naive dust]

ok

[civic lodge]

then run chmod to change thm-troubleshoot file permissions

and run it

[toxic python]

Then pray to the vpn gods

[naive dust]

do i cd into master or the zip one ?

[civic lodge]

master is a directory

zip = file

cd stands for change directory

[naive dust]

okay do i chmod it first before i cd into it?

[civic lodge]

you need to change the permissions of the file

if you don't specify full path it looks for files in the directory you are at the moment

[naive dust]

the file inside the master directory?

[civic lodge]

thats the file you want to run isn't it?

[naive dust]

yes

how do i run

[civic lodge]

./file

[naive dust]

sudo ./openvpn-troubleshooting-master

[toxic python]

That’s a directory

[civic lodge]

nonoo you don't want to run the zip file nor the directory

[toxic python]

Not a file

You want to run the file

[naive dust]

oh god

im confused now

[toxic python]

Go inside the master directory

[naive dust]

iam look

[toxic python]

Perform the stuff the alien elf is telling you

Change the permissions on the file that isn’t the read me

And then run that file

[naive dust]

okay

so whats the run command

just chmod'd the file

[civic lodge]

./file

[toxic python]

sudo ./file

[naive dust]

oohhhhhhhhh

so pretty

[toxic python]

Type y

Then hit enter

[naive dust]

lol kk

nother error

it says my username should be your_user

How do i edit the username

[civic lodge]

it needs to know the path of the file

[naive dust]

how do i tell it

[civic lodge]

normally /home/<user>/Downloads/<username>.ovpn

[naive dust]

so first run ./openvpn-thm-troubleshooting then /home/user/Downloads/user.ovpn

[toxic python]

Read the prompts

And answer them

Instead of just pressing enter

It’s good to understand what’s going on and you’ll learn a lot

[naive dust]

Heck yeah!

Thank you guys!

now what

[civic lodge]

well

[naive dust]

go back to metasploit lol

and finish the room

[civic lodge]

now it should be working

[naive dust]

man

so much to do

so little timE!!!

[civic lodge]

how do you know im a man?

im an alien 👽

[naive dust]

It;s an expression i sincerely apologiz3e

[civic lodge]

im just kidding

[naive dust]

Thank you for your help sincerely!

[toxic python]

I am Blob

[naive dust]

Curious: how much would it have cost in real life to fix such a simple issue like this on a real scaled company ? For your time and remote assistance?

Okay stil getting the same thing

do i have to go through the same steps again and reconfigure my LHOST and LPORTs?

[civic lodge]

i think the LHOST is wrong again

but well, maybe the machine timer ended

redeploy

and do the steps again

[naive dust]

sounds good. I'll be back getting some dutch bros!

[toxic python]

Yea the lhost is wrong tho

[naive dust]

How ?

[wind wedge]

It needs to be your VPN IP

[naive dust]

But metasploit is telling me to add victim ip?

[eager fulcrum]

As RHOST yes

Remote Host

Vs Local Host

Local = your machine

[naive dust]

Ohhhhhhh drrr

[novel token]

my attacking machine cant open firefox

does it have internet?

You're running multiple VPN connections at the same time, which breaks all of them

[magic ore]

whoops

that explains it. thanks

working now 🙂

what if I want to connect to a VPN via another VPN

example I'm in China and the tryhackme VPN is blocked, so I need to have my computer's internet traffic go through NordVPN or ExpressVPN or similar in order to reach tryhackme's VPN

[eager fulcrum]

Specifically you were running the THM VPN twice

[magic ore]

yes

bad

[eager fulcrum]

Bypassing the VPN restrictions are illegal, so we're not going to help you

[magic ore]

alright

I am in Australia and I use NordVPN service for extra privacy. Can I keep my same computer connected to NordVPN and THM VPN at the same time?

[eager fulcrum]

It might not work, and it's best not to

You're using WSL2 right?

[magic ore]

yes

[eager fulcrum]

If so, connect to the THM VPN just in WSL, not in Windows

Bear in mind you're effectively using a VM

[magic ore]

ok

[magic ore]

thanks James I was able to finish the room 🙂

[lofty night]

Not sure why I don't see the questions once I join the room. Any thoughts? Saw them before that

[naive dust]

having the same problem again

[bronze vale]

Change the port

And make sure that is your tun0 IP

[naive dust]

set LPORT to what port?

[bronze vale]

A port that is not in use

[naive dust]

do i have to be in the msf6: prompt or the iceheader prompt

[eager fulcrum]

Is the VPN running directly in parrot?

[naive dust]

or does it matter?

yes

it is

[eager fulcrum]

If so, you're already using port 4444 for something else

[naive dust]

yes

[eager fulcrum]

You have something listening on 4444 already

[naive dust]

yes i do

[eager fulcrum]

So... why?

[naive dust]

not sure

[eager fulcrum]

Well, stop that thing

[naive dust]

how??

[eager fulcrum]

IDK what it is

Probably metasploit

[naive dust]

i have all these ports open look

[eager fulcrum]

wat

[eager fulcrum]

You only care about 4444

[naive dust]

if they say connected its being used right

[eager fulcrum]

Also are those ports or unix sockets? Those are different things

Just reboot

Fastest way to fix it

[naive dust]

idk

i ran netstat -na

insdie metasploit

[eager fulcrum]

Just reboot

Fastest way to fix it

[naive dust]

same thing is happening

i went step by step

and also, i already download my configuration file

do i need to be rooted to run set LPORT

or does it havre to be inside metasploit

icecast

[eager fulcrum]

That's the wrong LHOST

You don't need to change LPORT

[normal sequoia]

thanks

[eager fulcrum]

WSL1 or WSL2?

[normal sequoia]

where can i see it?

[eager fulcrum]

https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/4555

[normal sequoia]

thanks

wsl --set-default-version 2

i ran that

in powershel

[eager fulcrum]

if you'd like my help, you need to answer my troubleshooting questions

[normal sequoia]

i am reading it

[naive dust]

What is the correct LHOST set?

isn't it the one i'm connected to on try hack me ?

this? ::

the 10.2.51.220

[humble vessel]

should be that one yeh

[naive dust]

that's the one i'm connecting

[civic lodge]

it's not

you didn't set the lhost

you need to set it

[humble vessel]

i think you put it on tun0 instead of setting the ip iddress

[eager fulcrum]

You used 10.0.2.15

Which is a virtualbox default NAT IP

[naive dust]

i see

okay re doing

same thing happening

okay so i ran wsl --list inside powershell of my main hardware computer

and i got this

[civic lodge]

you dont use icecast after setting lhost

[naive dust]

does this mean i need to enable/download the distro

[civic lodge]

you need to use icecast, then you set the options

[naive dust]

waht really?

[civic lodge]

yee

[naive dust]

so first i ran
-msfconsole

-use icecast

-search multi/handler

-use 6

-set PAYLOAD

-set LHOST

-use icecast

-set RHOSTS

-run -j

-doesn't work

[civic lodge]

it is metasploit room?

[naive dust]

yes

[civic lodge]

oh

let me see

[naive dust]

after NMAP

Thank you!

[civic lodge]

hmmm

[naive dust]

yeah still not wroking

now i get this error

[civic lodge]

type use exploit/multi/handler and type show options

[naive dust]

@civic lodge

Your name sounds like Turmeric that orange powder plant

no offense

[civic lodge]

im genuinely laughing right now

well, i'm gonna be honest, i don't know why its not working for you

try to redeploy the machine and try it again

if it doesnt work maybe someone smarter than me can help you

[naive dust]

I will try, thank you

[eager fulcrum]

@naive dust When you change module, it clears the settings

So setting LHOST for multi handler and then changing module means you don't keep that LHOST value

Multi Handler is not something you need to run rn

You need the icecast module

use icecast

Then set LHOST, RHOST, then run

[naive dust]

okay will try that

[long star]

Hi, my room won't deploy. Nothing happens once I've pressed 'deploy'.

[civic lodge]

refresh the page and try again

[long star]

I have done numerous times. The last room was completely fine, only getting trouble with this new one.

[civic lodge]

the ip doesn't show up when you click deploy?

maybe logout and log in again

[long star]

No, and once it's pressed you can't press again and nothing happens. I'll try that an and get back to you. Thank you.

Logged out and logged back in and the machine is still running. Website seems to be lagging slightly.

Seems I have to log out and log in for the machine to apear

[naive dust]

same thing

F*****KKKKKKK

and im inside ice cast

these are my settings inside icecast

[civic lodge]

change the lhost

[naive dust]

to what hsoe

i keep using the set LHOST tun0

i just changed the host and still the same thing look

[stone roost]

did you try selecting the architecture for the payload? it's just a suggestion, but it might work or not

[naive dust]

set PAYLOAD windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp

[stone roost]

set payload windows/x64/meterpreter/reverse_tcp

does this make a difference

[naive dust]

trying it now i'm waiting for my nmap to stoop

stop

[stone roost]

oki dokes

[long star]

I think my errors corrected itself. Another quick query. Is there a way I can copy and paste my answers from the VM to the answerbox? It's a pain having to type hashes lol

[stone roost]

ctrl shift c on the vm from the command line

ctrl v on your answer page

[stone roost]

^

[long star]

It's not working lol

[stone roost]

there is also a small box on the side of the attackbox, does that not work either?

[long star]

Didn't see that clip box! Awesome thank you

[stone roost]

no worries

apologies for forgetting

[eager fulcrum]

terminate and redeploy the target machine. You only get a few attempts

[naive dust]

Okay

Here i go again

restarting VM

not sure if that's the channel to report it

[naive dust]

it's just stuck now

😭

[wind wedge]

You’re exploiting the multi/handler which you’re not supposed to do

[naive dust]

That's what TryHackMe is telling me to do ?!? 🤷‍♂️

[stone roost]

that's if you upload your payload and not if you use the exploit that generates the shell already

let me quickly have a look

is that ice room @naive dust ?

[naive dust]

Metasploit Room

[stone roost]

those are on a per user basis, let me have a look for you

so you using the correct exploit, right? can you do a show options for me

[naive dust]

Why do all of you have elf hats

Not right now

[stone roost]

i don't lol, it's a christmas picture

[naive dust]

I am away from my machine

[stone roost]

ahhh okay

[naive dust]

But I will soon

Last time I did a show options I got this

[stone roost]

the one above?

[naive dust]

Yes

[stone roost]

i remember icecast not being the most stable exploit

[naive dust]

I'm doing every step as said by their room

[stone roost]

yeah, the room was written almost a year ago, and it was using msf5

stuff changed in msf6

[naive dust]

Darkstar needs to fix it 😤

[stone roost]

you can downgrade your msfconsole to version 5 and you should be able to do it, but the exploit in itself it's iffy

and doesn't work 100% of the times

it's not about you doing wrong, it's the exploit in itself that is miserable at times.

[naive dust]

How i do that ?

[stone roost]

as long as you have the correct RHOST, LHOST and port it should work just fine

[naive dust]

I'll run show options when I get back home on like an hour

Wat time zone u in?

[stone roost]

GMT +0

it's 2:30 am

[naive dust]

Ouch

U might be asleep by then

Farewell mate, till tomorrow

[stone roost]

pretty much, but there should be someone to lend a hand

[naive dust]

You were amazing 👏

Much appreciated

[stone roost]

if there's no one give me a ping tomorrow

It's connected

[ionic knoll]

Hi team, could u pls confirm if THM has any discount for black Friday?

[naive dust]

It's showing error

Any help would be great

[placid mango]

Regenerate or switch server.

Also, it's recommended to use Linux in vm for this.

[safe rain]

What does the error say behind ... the error? lol. I.e. What does the red text say in the connection dialogue?

[safe rain]

I would check the VPN config file or connection settings. Don't know what Kn1ght101 is, but, I would try re-downloading the configuration file that's used to connect to the VPN and try again... Just an idea. Also, if you can connect to other VPN's, you know it's an issue with that particular configuration or connection.

[eager fulcrum]

It's not connected

You need to regenerate your config

Wait 30-60 seconds and redownload

[naive dust]

Okay

I'll try

[naive dust]

okay so still same thing

here is my show options: @stone roost

[hallow spindle]

Would a mod be able to help me with resetting my pathway. havnt been on in months. Just want to start over from scratch.

Please and thank you

[edgy tusk]

Is there an issue with the CORP room with the Net.WebClient command?

[placid mango]

@naive dust redeploy the box and try again. In first screenshot you used 10.0.2.15 which vbox default ip iirc.

[placid mango]

Try downloading the file on your machine then host http server and use your webserver address to download file there.

[edgy tusk]

Exactly what I did and am doing. Just wondering if it was a room bug

I am pulling it from my machine and then running Import-Module

[placid mango]

Rooms don't have internet connection to them except the attackbox.

[naive dust]

if you are referring to the configuration-file, i have done this already. it's in my downloads under rokie.ovpn

[edgy tusk]

True, just weird why they wrote the room script to go and grab it from github if they know they dont have outside access from sandbox

[naive dust]

then i open terminal and i sudo openvpn. downloads/rokie.ovpn

then i open a second terminal and run msfconsole

then i cd into use icecast

then search multi/handler

then run use 6

then set the payload

then set the lhost

then set the rhosts

then run

and still no connection s

no meterpreter 😦

[placid mango]

Show screenshot of options again.

[placid mango]

Okay, do this redeploy the room you are doing this time wait 5 mins then change lport to something else cause 4444 looks like its already in use and run it again.

[naive dust]

okay

So by redoploying means i need to terminate the attach machine and also restart the openvpn in the background??

[placid mango]

Nah just terminate the room machine and then start it again.

Make sure to change rhost and lport this time.

[naive dust]

okay now i get this

[placid mango]

Do you have any other vpn's running?

[naive dust]

don't think so just 3 net cards

[placid mango]

Ice room right?

[naive dust]

yep

[placid mango]

Okay, I tried with your icecast ip and it didn't worked and then started separate machine and it worked there.

So, terminate the icecast box then start it again and wait 5 mins before you run the exploit. Also, make sure you use the right rhost. Looks like it breaks itself after few attempts.

[naive dust]

okay terminating icebox machine and awaiting a new ip address

okay just got a new IP address

now i wait 5 mins?

[placid mango]

Yup. Let it load itself.

[naive dust]

do i run the set PAYLOAD, set LHOST, set RHOSTS all inside icecast or mutli/handler?

[placid mango]

Exit yourself from metasploit. And do the steps again. You only need to change rhost and lhost.

No need to change payload.

[naive dust]

okay

it stuck now

at the prompt

look at the very bottom

[placid mango]

You are using wrong lhost. That's vbox default eth0 ip.

Also, let's move this #room-help .

hello im having trouble with http in tryhackme

im connected to the vpn but i cant access the webserver

[naive dust]

which room or do you mean 10.10.10.10

[stone mountain]

webgoat

also jack of all trades room

i cant view the webpage it says connection reset

[naive dust]

can you access 10.10.10.10

[stone mountain]

Yes

but the webpage of jack of all trade i cant access that and webgoat webpage

[naive dust]

did you give it ten minutes to boot

[stone mountain]

Yes

[naive dust]

okay

could you show mee a screenshot of your openvpn command

[wind wedge]

Webgoat runs on a different port doesn’t it?

[stone mountain]

Yeah but after 20 minutes still not working the port is 8080

or 8000 i think

[naive dust]

8000

[zealous yoke]

It's located in /root/Desktop/Tools/Miscellaneous/enum4linux.pl

am i doing something wrong with enum4linux?

it's a perl script so you'll need to prepend it like so: perl enum4linux.pl (:

[stone mountain]

still not working

[steep scarab]

does anyone know if I can access the same room with 2 different machines using the same vpn? because I get some timeout errors when doing this

[zealous yoke]

No, you must only have one connection at a time when using the same VPN file

Otherwise it'll switch between the two connections constantly and you'll experience a lot of issues

[steep scarab]

thank you, is there a way to fix this, because I like using tools from both windows and linux vm

[brisk hornet]

FFS, Thank you very much man! Felt like a fool, but at least learning through the process

Hi guys. I've just discovered TryHackMe and was interested, so i tried the tutorial. But I had problems with my attack box. On the terminal, I could not key in lowercase "L". And in firefox, I could not type anything in the URL bar. Can't paste anything I copied to clipboard too. Does anyone know what is wrong? Would like to subscribe if this can be fixed

[bronze vale]

@zealous yoke Is this your area? ^

[zealous yoke]

Sure thing (:

Just sounds like the keyboard input is stuck for your session - if you close the tab that you have open and refresh the page that should initiate a new connection and resolve it @stray nacelle

[stray nacelle]

@zealous yoke I tried that, didn't work :/ I tried terminating the machine to restart but now im locked out due to once per day limit. I'll try again tomorrow but in the meanwhile hope that could get some other tips here.

@zealous yoke I closed the whole browser, not just the tab

[zealous yoke]

Ah I understand, sorry to hear that. Are you okay if I were to DM you please?

[stray nacelle]

Sure thing

[zealous yoke]

Thanks!

There doesn't seem to be a way to stop a room to try and restart when something is not working as it should, am I missing something? Or is there no other option than to wait, or try and reset the room?

I have a issue with BrainStorm. I download the executable and when I run it in my x86 VMs it crashes. When I run it in the debugger, it constantly pauses and when I hit F9 to continue the program it just pauses until it terminates. Am I missing something? I tried in Windows XP, 7 and 10 x86 VMs. IDK if something is wrong with the executable or what. It doesnt allow for a connection because of the instant crashing or the constant pausing in the debugger. Thanks for any ideas or help. Maybe I could get the source and compile myself?

Make sure you download it in binary mode from FTP

[turbid hamlet]

Thanks I will give that a shot later.

[tall kelp]

There seems to be an issue with new enrollments to paths (at least for some). It just says "Loading..." but stays there and does not load anything.

Tried Complete Beginner and Offensive Pentesting paths, same issue...

Also tried to leave the path and enroll again. Still same issue.

[placid mango]

Have you tried different browser? Also, you need to be a subscriber to see the rooms iirc.

[tall kelp]

I am not a subscriber. I thought at least the Complete Beginner path is free ?

Also, if it is subscriber-only I would have expected some kind of "only for subscribers" message. But it just let me enroll without any further message/hint

trying different browsers also does not help. same issue on Chrome and Firefox

[placid mango]

Nah, they are for sub only. You can see the Linux Fundamentals is locked.

https://blog.tryhackme.com/free_path

Take a look at above post.

[thick bloom]

I have a general technical question:

Does anyone know if the monthly scoreboard reset depends on each country timezone or no?

[scenic torrent]

Above time (00:00 CET) in your local time · Nov 29, 2020, 11:00 PM

[tall kelp]

Okay, that was not clearly communicated on the site then. Rooms are clearly marked as "VIP" if they are subscriber-only. But Paths are not, apparently.

[placid mango]

It was only sub before. Now, some section is made free I think. Though the loading room looks like a bug.

[tall kelp]

It would be more useful to also prevent enrollments to paths for non-subscribers with a clear error message then, in my opinion.

[placid mango]

@deep trellis can you take a look at this?

[thick bloom]

thank you

[tall kelp]

There was something in #announcements yesterday, at least about the complete beginner path. Not sure if that could be a reason. But I have the same issue with other paths like Offensive Pentesting too

You weren't connected tot he VPN when you ran it

But what does it say in the terminal when you connect?

[crude root]

all works , i've rebooted the before running the script the second time ( told me there was more than one instance of the vpn ) , then reran it told the same error , i'll connect and rerun the script

Afternoon all, sorry to be a pain but having connection issues with throwback again, server infor page l;ooks good, server is running, vpn connected and ip issued, throwback is started and running (accoring to its status page, put when pinging i get Des host unreachable.. (have double check all pivots have been killed etc etc)

[feral merlin]

Is the site down? I am experience problems connecting to the site.

[forest spruce]

Im having same issue with throwback

[feral merlin]

Maybe the whole TryHackMe network is down?

[eager fulcrum]

Site is up

The VPNs are independent from the website anyway

[patent quarry]

I'm having problems connecting to the website also

503 Service unavailable 😦

[eager fulcrum]

Give it 5 minutes

Admins might have just pushed a patch

[feral merlin]

It does not load properly or results in an error. But let's give it some time.

We are not in a hurry.

[patent quarry]

speak for yourself xP need to get some practice in before advent cyber 2 🙂

[feral merlin]

@patent quarry the first tasks will be easy I guess, so do not worry.

[long crystal]

tryhackme website is down for me

[woven gale]

which network are you on

[patent quarry]

it is back up for me, just wait 5mins

[woven gale]

Still no joy with throwback, its as it was before.

[crude root]

any logs i could dwel into to see what is going on ? , i usually have acces to the VPN gateway to troubleshoot thgat kind of issue

[eager fulcrum]

That left hand side is the logs

Admins are busy with Digital Ocean being a mess RN AFAIK

[grand loom]

getting a 503 on tryhackme.com

[civic lodge]

👀

best thing you do is ignoring the email

[naive dust]

kk

[polar drift]

can someone help me? I'm trying to do the complete begginer path but it keeps on loading the rooms

[naive dust]

someone was having the same trouble yesterday

must be a site issue

[naive dust]

my rooms aren't loading ?

[rose flame]

do i need to close the tryhackme vpn connection actually?

[eager fulcrum]

@waxen helm Hi, this is the tech support channel. Please don't post memes here. There's #general for that.

[waxen helm]

oh sorry, copy that 😉

[naive dust]

My rooms isn't loading

[wind wedge]

Have you refreshed your cache?

[woven gale]

are the rooms back up yet?, still no acces to throwback?

[raven belfry]

Anybody from TryHackMe is actually around?

I'd like to know why my subscription was cancelled ?

Without my consent

"You asked for your TryHackMe subscription to expire. It now has.. we will miss you! If you changed your mind and want to renew, visit your profile."

I cannot re-subscribe at the rate I originally subscribed...

This is not right.

[wind wedge]

Was you using Paypal?

[raven belfry]

Yes.

[wind wedge]

Try emailing [e-mail] and they should give it back to you

[raven belfry]

Will do, thanks.

[eager fulcrum]

Paypal doesn't auto renew

[ocean junco]

^

[raven belfry]

well that sucks.

that made me lose the discount I had...

[crude root]

i've tried on 3 different network / Pc , the VPn does come up i can pin g the VPN gw , myself but seems i can't reach any ip on the throwback network .

is it normal i don't have a Gw ip on nic configuration ?

i do have the route on my kali box , but on windows , seems the Gw is empty

[eager fulcrum]

@crude root Why are you connecting from Windows?

[crude root]

i tried to see if it wasent my kali box

[eager fulcrum]

You can only connect from one device at once, that's something that will lead to weird issues.

[crude root]

i know

but still now no routing trought the vpn is good , i even regenerate the openvpn profile to make sure no other device i tested with was conflicting

[eager fulcrum]

It doesn't change the IP or invalidate the old config

So it will still interfere

[crude root]

i touhgt it was regenerating the cert for conexion to the gateway

[naive dust]

By bruddhas

I need help

Anyone can help me with wireshark

[eager fulcrum]

@crude root Yes, it does

But it doesn't invalidate the old keys/certs

And is the same IP

[crude root]

ohhh

i tought it was revocing the old certs

[eager fulcrum]

@naive dust #infosec-general unless it's for a tryhackme room, then use #room-help

[eager fulcrum]

It should, yes

It's a bug being worked on now

[crude root]

ok , i'll reboot everything , but it's wierd 😦 i want to learn LOL !

i'll spin up a THM attack machione to see if the same issue occurs

[tardy vessel]

The site is just crashing from time to time?.
its redirecting me to some Captcha site -> Error 503(fixed by refresh) and the rooms just disconnecting even the timer shows more than an hour.

It is not even accepting answers sometimes, (had to refresh everytime to submit it)

[blissful sleet]

hello! is it possible the the first Advent of Cyber doesn't work ?

[eager fulcrum]

...doesn't... work?

[blissful sleet]

i know that it is lasts years set of challenges but I thought I could give it a shot

[eager fulcrum]

it works

[blissful sleet]
