It suddenly stop working few days ago

Hi there - it looks like your machine is unable to make HTTP requests to microsoft:

WARNING volatility3.framework.plugins: Automagic exception occurred: http.client.RemoteDisconnected: Remote end closed connection without response

Is you machine connected to the internet, are you behind any kind of proxy? What happens if you try to download http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols/ntkrnlmp.pdb/F6650B47E7E9D54F1FD4BC090DDACDD21/ntkrnlmp.pdb yourself manually?

It might have been a temporary problem at your end, it might be worthwhile running vol with the --clear-cache option just in case.

My machine is connected to the internet
I tried to download this pdb file manually using symchk.exe but failed
My Volatility 3 was working fine until April 11th, and I’ve also tried the methods you provided, but they didn’t work.
Thank you for helping me.

What happens when you simply take the url and open it in your web browser (e.g. firefox) - does this download a file?

Hello @suamsuamsuam - any luck?

[tury325re]

I think I found the fix here. I disabled Virtualization in my BIOS and re-generated the memory dump and bam, this error went away and I was able to have full functionality of Volatility. Let me know if that helps.

@tury325re This is the same comment you left on #1223. Could you please clarify exactly which issue it was intended for please?

[tury325re]

@ikelos I had the same issue of:

"Unsatisfied requirement plugins.Info.kernel.symbol_table_name:
A symbol table requirement was not fulfilled. Please verify that:
The associated translation layer requirement was fulfilled
You have the correct symbol file for the requirement
The symbol file is under the correct directory or zip file
The symbol file is named appropriately or contains the correct banner
Unable to validate the plugin requirements: ['plugins.Info.kernel.symbol_table_name']"

I read elsewhere that virtualization can sometimes interfere with memory dump collection, therefore I turned it off in BIOS and regenerated the memory dump and it finally worked when i plugged it into volatility.

Ok, I see. Unfortunately that error message can have a number of reasons because it's very difficult to determine the exact cause. Volatility has a number of heuristics designed to identify page mappings, if those are out then it won't be able to find a matching kernel table, if the image was acquired with smear or other issues (such as virtualization settings are likely to cause) volatility won't be able to find the symbol table. If the operating system is linux, and the banner doesn't exactly match one of the symbol tables the user has provided, then the symbol table won't match...

Given the message turned up several times as potential solutions to different bug reports I just wanted to check that it hadn't been repeat posted by mistake, and that it was a genuine attempt at a solution. Thanks for trying to help out, however it's just one of many possible potential fixes for that particular error message.
