Hello,

Has anyone succeeded in finding a solution to this problem? I am trying to run PhotoRec on my QNAP TS-212 and have the same exact error message "Terminfo file is missing".


Thanks,

Marcin

I copy /etc/termcap file to testdisk-7 directory from my CentOS6 server and execute in shell:
export TERMINFO_DIRS=./
after this - ./photorec successful run on qnap ts-412.

I did export TERMINFO=/mnt/ext/usr/share/terminfo on my QNAP TS-212 and that did the trick. Photorec worked like a charm after that.
