Error running hashcat --left command.

[strifero]

Ubuntu 14.04 x64

I can't seem to get hashcat3 to run correctly on the resource server. Logs report:

verified the folder exists.

in debug mode I get a little more detail

Update

Resolved this with uncommenting --potfile-path in the resourced.conf

It is possible we do not handle that being commented. I will review and update as needed.
