I have downloaded the App Service Migration Assistant installer. When I launch the installer, a "Please wait..." status message pops up quickly then goes away. After this, no other windows open showing any installation of this program. I have tried this several times. Is this a known issue? Running on Windows 10.

Please provide the following:
According to screenshots it's supposed to list my existing sites.
Error: TypeError: Cannot read property 'split' of undefined
None.
Something like the authentication type being WindowsAuthentication should not block the migration. For production it is not an option to disable this without a service window. Using something else like AAD auth in the web app would also require some code changes which one possibly will want to do on the migrated app.
Would be great if it is an option to "continue at own risk"
Assesment is timing out on 5 different servers.
I was using version 0.0.7 yesterday which was able to assess most of the sites. I installed v. 1.0 today and just about every site is timing out in the assessment.
Is there any logs I can look into?
Please provide the following:

After I choose a website to asses the expected behaviour is a report for the website is produced.
An error message is presented and the tool does not continue the assessment.
None :(
This tool could be greatly enhanced by adding a support of SQL Server databases/instances migrations too
We disabled the AppWarmupModule for our application, and the assessment finally passed. One of our systems team did the migration, and I started testing.
I was surprised to get 500.19 errors.
On investigation, the web.config file was declaring some configuration settings, which no longer need to be defined (this is a really old application).
This might be worth checking for (or possibly not, can't be that many vintage apps hanging around).

Please provide the following:
Provide the steps required to reproduce the problem:
Install on Linux
1.Download the azure-appService-migrationAssistant.tar.gz file to the machine
2.Confirm the file SHA matches the release notes SHA using command like: sha256sum azure-appService-migrationAssistant.tar.gz
3.Create (or pick) a directory where you want to place the tool, such as: mkdir DirectoryName
4.Unzip the file into that directory: tar -xzf azure-appService-migrationAssistant.tar.gz -C DirectoryName
5.Cd into the folder where you unzipped the tar.gz and launch the Migration Assistant using a command like: sudo azure-appService-migrationAssistant-1.0.5/azure-appservice-migrationassistant --no-sandbox
The app mig tool ui is supposed to open. Not sure never used it for linux distribution.
After I performed the last step and ran the command it's asking for certain libraries "error while loading shared libraries: libX11-xcb.so.1 cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
Tried installing all the required libraries. Please, provide me information whether this tool can be used for linux distribution effortlessly or not. Since, this is in yet in preview.

We are trying to migrate an ASP.Net app from IIS 7.5 on Server 2008R2 up to Azure. The initial run of the assistant gave us three errors, two of which I could clear myself, one we cannot clear.
It is detecting the AppWarmupModule installed in the application (it was originally installed). To clear this error I have:
I came here hoping there would be code so that I could see what it was being triggered by.
We are currently working with John Scott (from Microsoft AZURE team) on the migration, and he is trying to reach out.
Any help would be appreciated.
Please provide the following:
Provide the steps required to reproduce the problem:
Step 1: Install App Services Migration Assistant in a Windows 10 machine
