Could not start Burp: NullPointerException

Jalaj | Last updated: Apr 16, 2022 03:01PM UTC

Hi, One day I started my parrot OS normally and launched burpsuite, all of a sudden I get this error after I select a project with default configurations. `Could not start Burp: NullPointerException` I have tried installing other java versions, whether it be older or newer, even uninstalled burpsuite, java, openjdk and did a fresh install but still the error persist. Kindly help, I no longer have patience.

Hi Could you tell me some more information? - The version of Burp you are trying to launch? - Are you using Pro or Community? - Are you launching the standalone JAR version of Burp, or the Linux installer version?
