Thanks for your suggestion. I did try hibr2bin.exe, that didn't work
either (error was: "Failed. Cannot open file. Please check if the file
is not being used")
The first page (4096 Byte) of the file is empty - but as far as I know
that shouldn't be a problem.

Perhaps try the following syntax:

I recommend Matt's standalone windows executable hibr2bin from moonsol.

Hello,
I tried to convert a hiberfil.sys from WindowsXP SP0 German and get the
following error:
.

any ideas ?

Hey Christian!
What verion of Volatility are you using? I'm not sure they are related to
your issue but there were some bugfixes for issues related to inactive
hibernation files (ie first page zero'd).
The first page being empty means that the information normally found in
the hibernation header needs to be carved from the sample. It normally
just requires an extra couple of steps.
Thanks,
AW

Sorry for the delay, I've been out of office for two days ...
@aaron
I've checked out SVN Revision 527, I think that's the latest version.
@matthieu
Thank's for your kind offer. I've attached the first 16 pages of two
different hibernation files (off list).
hiberfil_16_pages_first_empty.dd is from WindowsXP SP0 German. That file
doen't look to me like a valid hibernation file - is it possible that
the machine it comes from has been configured for hibernation but
hibernation mode never has been used ? Is it right that in such a case
windows will just reserve the space necessary for the hibernation file
but will not do any initialization so that file will probably contain
random data from files which previously occupied that disk space ?
hiberfil_16_pages_active.dd is from Windows Vista Business SP1 32Bit, it
looks like an active hibernation file but gives the same error when I
tried converting it ("Failed. Cannot open file. Please check if the file
is not being used")
So both files gives the same error, I tried it on Windows7 and on a
Windows XP box too to make sure that it isn't related to an eventual
UAC/Win7/64Bit problem.
Thank you
Christian

Dear,
Regarding hiberfil_16_pages_first_empty.dd it seems this version of the
hibernation file is not using the xpress format. The fact that the first
page is empty is not a problem.
It seems it use the old NT 5.0 hibernation format (LZNT1) which is not
supported either by volatility or hibr2bin/hibr2dmp. Main reasons I never
took a look at it is because of the lack of time for free research. To
recognize an old format is the the methodology :
# Always look for \x81\x81xpress at the beginning of each first 16 pages.
The Windows Vista problem is weird because I don't see anything abnormal.
Are you using hibr2dmp or hibr2bin ?
Regards,
