How to point installer script to correct JRE binaries

j | Last updated: Nov 05, 2017 04:20PM UTC

Hi there. I'm doing some training w/ a supplied VM that had BurpSuite Free edition pre-installed (v. 1.7.03), and when I tried to launch Burp from CLI or GUI, I was getting errors. After some troubleshooting realized that the JRE version that was installed was incorrect. So, I updated JRE, and I can launch the older version fine. However, I wanted to look at installing the latest build, but when I go to launch the installer, it appears to be still pointing to the incorrect JRE versions. What's the best step here? Uninstall the other JRE version, or is there a way to point the installer script to the latest version? ~/Downloads# ./burpsuite_free_linux_v1_7_27.sh Unpacking JRE ...
