Hi Team,

I am new to Arachni tool and exploring the options and it's feasibility on windows machine.
I have installed windows 64bit version build and able to login using admin id's.Post login when I try to scan a URL, tool stopped working and showing a continues message as " The scan is initializing, please wait..." I have waited for good amount time and also tried checking in new session and different URL's but the error is same in all cases.

Can anyone help in Arachni tool usage on windows machine and how to scan a web application where user has to login and navigate to different pages in the web application.

P.S: Due to limitations, I will not be able to use Kali linux for testing.

Thanks and Regards,
Chatrapathy Jakkam

    RAM is on the low side, this could be an issue, can you tell how much memory is actually available when you try to start a scan?

    I'm not having this issue, I can't reproduce. Is this behavior consistent?
