Cannot launch CIS-CAT Pro Assessor® GUI

Cannot launch CIS-CAT Pro Assessor® GUI

 


Product Name

CIS-CAT Pro Assessor®

Product Version

v4.1+

Date

Feb 24, 2021



 

Problem

I can run a successful Assessment using Assessor-CLI v4.+ but I am unable to run a successful Assessment using the Assessor v4 GUI. The GUI remains blank after selecting the desired Benchmark and Profile.

 

Solution

The problem likely lies in the location of your \Assessor-CLI Directory. White Spaces in the local file path can stop the GUI from successfully completing an Assessment - even if the application launches and you are able to select the desired Benchmark.

You cannot host the Assessor-CLI directory on a Network Share and use the GUI.

 

If you have configuration files that have been modified to contain the File Path to Assessor-CLI, you will need to update those .config files accordingly
