Hi, I am going through Web security Academy Labs, I get the following error when I access "OS Command Injection Lab" "An error occurred. We apologise for the inconvenience." But other labs such XSS and SQLi are working fine.

Hi Ben, Unfortunately, the same issue arose again. Don't know if the issue is from my side or in web academy practice lab.

Hi both, We had some further issues with the labs last night but they should now be working as expected. Are you now able to launch them successfully?

Hi, I am going through Web security Academy Labs, I get the following error when I access "OS Command Injection Lab" "An error occurred. We apologise for the inconvenience." all laboratories

Ben, PortSwigger Agent | Last updated: Dec 16, 2022 09:17AM UTC

Hi Jose, Just to clarify, you are receiving this error when you attempt to launch any lab or just the ones under the 'OS Command Injection' topic? What browser are you using? Are you proxying the browser through Burp at the time when you attempt to launch the lab? If so, what happens if you try and launch a lab in a non-proxied browser?
