Crash on Installer on latest Fedora 35

Ollie | Last updated: Dec 18, 2021 06:48PM UTC

Had a report that the latest Fedora 35 will cause a crash with the installer. 'I downloaded the jar file and it worked. the one with the embedded JRE crashes' Is what was reported to me.

Hi Thanks for getting in touch. Do you know if the person who had this problem was using the x86_64 or the ARM aarch64 version of Fedora 35?

Hi Michelle, x86_64 Ollie

Hi I've done some tests this morning with Fedora 35 Workstation and I'm not seeing a crash with the latest stable or early adopter installers. Can you ask your colleague who had the issue to email support@portswigger.net with a few more details to help us investigate and try to replicate this one, please? It would be good to know the version of Burp they're trying to install, at what stage the crash happens, and whether there are any errors displayed around that time.

Thanks for the update. I've been having a chat with the developers this morning and they've asked it if would be possible to send over the core dump to support@portswigger.net for them to have a look through.

I will try and get a copy. Was it not possible to replicate via the above steps?
