Hi Antonio, This warning message is expected and can be safely ignored (it is caused by our license protection code). Does Burp launch successfully when you execute your command at the terminal?

No, it doesn't launch anything. I have increased RAM memory, but it show me the warnings but doesn't launch burp.

Hi Antonio, Just to confirm, does your Redhat machine has a GUI installed on it?
