    Can't open *.cap files anymore with aircrack

    Hi guys,

    i tried to penetrate my own network (WPA2/Psk) with aircrack and everything went good so far (i received a handshake and
    aircrack tried a couple of hours to crack my password (with no success by now :P)

    Now i got a very weird problem.

    I tried to managed that crunch will create a huge wordliste and give it directly to aircrack with the command:

    Code:
    crunch 0 25 abcdefghjiklmnop[...]234567890 | aircrack-ng Network-01.cap -w --bssid: AA:BB:CC:DD
    (i just skipped the abc part because it would take so long, but i used the lower- and uppercase of the whole abc and the numbers of course)

    Now yesterday it has worked for me. But today, aircrack will give me this reply:

    Code:
    Opening Network-01.cap
    Opening AA:BB:CC:DD
    open failed: No such file or directory
    but i know its in the right directory because it worked yesterday and i also used ls to
    make sure its in there..

    So, i was wondering if the file is too big for aircrack ? (because aircrack cannot use wordliste bigger than 2 gb (around 2gb). But when i change it to like

    crunch 1 1 abcABC123
    i get the same result ?

    I dont know why i get this results..

    and just for the information - i use virtualbox from oracle - if its a usefull info for you ..

    i hope you know what im doing wrong :P

    i thank you forwarded!

    i can also give you screenshot of its, but i dont know how im doing this here..

    nevermind - i found the error by myself.

    crunch 0 25 abcdefghjiklmnop[...]234567890 | aircrack-ng Network-01.cap -w - -bssid: AA:BB:CCD
    this is now the correct line! -w -
