Metalsploit basic 1.2 guided exercise


unable to open the file for both the flags it gives the same output that the operation failed

Hey there - the instruction to get root_flag.txt is as follows:

At the meterpreter prompt, execute cat /path/flag.txt (where path is the filepath you discovered above) to show the contents of the file you found.

It looks like you just typed cat /path/flag.txt rather than replacing path with the filepath you found using search -f root_flag.txt.

thanks for your help friend!
