You guys have to edit the scalpel.conf file first. It won’t run because by default there’s no file types for it to find. It’s written here up above “YOU HAVE TO UNCOMMENT THE FILE FORMAT”.

Opening target “/home/vagrant/GIT/BST”

(If you’re using the default configuration file, you’ll have to
uncomment some of the file types.)

See /etc/scalpel/scalpel.conf.

getting this error again n again
