pycommands: error importing module (

[tee-lake]

Expected behavior

Mona should spit back data when launched (!mona) from the Immunity Debugger 1.85

Actual behavior

pycommands: error importing module
....
line 87 in
import urllib ...
Error Image here

Steps to reproduce the problem

installed Immunity Debugger and updated from python 2.7.1 to python 2.7.14
added mona.py to the PyCommands folder
started Immunity Debugger as an admin
use !mona

Other useful information (mona version, debugger & debugger version, OS version, etc)

OS: Windows 7 x64 SP 1
immunity debugger 1.85

I downgraded the python version back to 2.7.1 which was installed by Immunity Debugger and it worked!

would it be possible to double check that you are installing the x86 version (and not the x64 version) of python 2.7.14 (or higher), and that you are installing it in the default folder (where 2.7.1 resides)?

thanks !

I was having this issue as well. I can confirm that this is a result of using the x64 version of Python (2.7.15 in my case). Installing the x86 version resolved the error.

[corelanc0d3r]

thanks - I'm also quite sure that this is caused by installing the x64 version
I'll close the issue for now, feel free to reopen if the issue has not been resolved.
(you should not be running the python 2.7.1 version, as you won't be able to run !mona upgrade)

[dcliss]

guys i get the same error

[dcliss]

which version to run ?

[corelanc0d3r]

you need to run the x86 python version, not the x64 version

[dcliss]

i installed x86 version https://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.7.14/python-2.7.14.msi

still getting the same error any help ?

[corelanc0d3r]

please make sure to add the 32bit python.exe binary to your system PATH

[KweonKang]

You'd rather check mona.py file. It is 630,068 byte size, not 5MB.
You can get it from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/corelan/mona/master/mona.py

[freis]

Added the 32bit python.exe (version 2.7.16)binary to PATH and used this last mona.py, still getting the same error.
OS is Windows 2008 Server.

[corelanc0d3r]

@freis are you using Immunity Debugger? Did you install the python version that comes with immunity, and installed it in the default path? After that, you upgraded it to 2.7.16? What was the python installer filename?

When you open mona.py, does it contain python code? How many lines does it have?

Can you run any of the other pycommands in Immunity?

[pope-es]

I am experiencing the same error on two 32-bit VMs (XP and win7). On both, I made sure I'm running 32-bit python (v 2.7.17).
In the Win7, I even:

• removing this Python version and instead installing the 2.7.1 that Immunity installs on setup. No luck either.
• ensured c:\Python27 is added to $PATH.

[corelanc0d3r]

can you please check/confirm that mona.py contains python code?
how many lines does it have ?

[pope-es]

Yep, it's 19102 lines of pure Python code. It's the same copy of the file that I am using in a Win 10 VM. All the VMs are freshly installed 32-bits versions of windows, with 2 cores and 2 GB RAM, running on VMware Fusion.

• Tried downgrading to a random earlier version of mona.py.

• Tried with Python 2.7.1 and 2.7.16, apart form the latest 2.7.17. All of them 32-bits.

Is there any way I can provide further debug info?

[corelanc0d3r]

can you check the properties of the file and confirm the file has been "unblocked"? Files downloaded from the internet are marked as unsafe by default

can you run other pycommands (check the pycommands folders) - that should confirm that the python setup is correct

[pope-es]

can you check the properties of the file and confirm the file has been "unblocked"? Files downloaded from the internet are marked as unsafe by default -> In the file properties I don't see anything suggesting it's blocked or not trusted. In any case I also tried re-creating the file contents to a new file created by the admin, same result.

can you run other pycommands (check the pycommands folders) - that should confirm that the python setup is correct --> Idiot me. I was copying it to the "tools" folder. Sorry man, and thanks for the troubleshooting. I confirm that copying mona.py to the right folder solves the issue, no problem. In the W10 VM where it was working, for some reason I had an older of mona.py (2.0 rev 596) in the proper folder, so THAT one was working properly (and not the one I had copied to immunity\tools).

Thanks again, and congrats on your great work!

I tried so many times in vmware. But doesn't work

[corelanc0d3r]

I tried so many times in vmware. But doesn't work

would it be possible to provide more detailed information?
What exactly have you tried and what doesn't work?

[rodri3d]

If you look at the description in the download link, it says: "removed some unneeded logging". Once you have the file, you must 'clean it' of unnecessary characters (otherwise it'll not work at all)

cheers!

[corelanc0d3r]

if you're not able to get mona.py to run, please open a new issue
