Public bug reported: I just installed autopsy and sleuthkit to analyse a disk image, but couldn't view contents of any file as it always prompted "no read permission".
I found this link [1] which tells you to make a symlink to the icat binary to make it work: ln -s /usr/bin/icat /usr/bin/icat-sleuthkit After I created the symlink I was able to see all file contents. Either a symlink must be created when autopsy is installed or autopsy code must be modified to look for the correct binary. This happened in a fresh Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS Mate computer after installing autopsy 2.24-1.1 and sleuthkit 4.2.0-3. Thanks.
