cracks the app but does not store the cracked file

[satishb3]

iPhone 5s, iOS 7.0.6

I have used Clutch 1.4.5 (git-2) (without any conf file) to crack the Gmail app. It cracked the app but didn't store the cracked ipa file in the specified location.

SatishB:/var/mobile/Cracked root# cd /User/Documents/Cracked/
SatishB:/User/Documents/Cracked root# ls
SatishB:/User/Documents/Cracked root# Clutch GmailHybrid

Having the below clutch.conf file in place, it cracked the app and stored the cracked ipa file properly.

May be some issue with folder permissions.

So as long as you have a config file it stores the file correctly? I'll address this when I have time - but for now just use a config file until I can update this :)

[NinjaLikesCheez]

Just tried to replicate this and cannot - have you got zip installed from Cydia?

[satishb3]

I have installed zip from Cydia and it worked without config file.

So even if we don't have zip installed it works with config file, strange.

[NinjaLikesCheez]

Ok so

no-zip + no-prefs = no-write
zip + no-prefs = write
no-zip + prefs = write

Is that right?

[satishb3]

yes, thats right

Clutch should automatically generate a configuration if it doesn't exist, I
think the default configuration was set to use CLI zip. In the
configuration you provided NativeZip was enabled, so it used ZipArchive to
zip.

[satishb3]

Now I understood why it worked with my conf file.
In my case, it didn't create the configuration file automatically.
It would be great if you change it to use NativeZip or mention in the Readme that ZIP has to be installed from Cydia.

Could run which zip in the app too for verification that zip is in $PATH.

fixed in 1.4.6, reverts to built-in zip library if zip is not found
