MacOS to Linux .burp File Breaks

| Last updated: May 28, 2023 08:25AM UTC

Hi PortSwigger, I thought I would note that every time I create a .burp project file on MacOS (M1 ARM) and attempt to move and open this .bur project file onto an x86 Linux device (Fedora), I always get the 'selected project file appears to be corrupt and cannot be opened' error. Unfortunately I cannot provide a .burp file due to data sensitivity issues, although this happens every time and should not be too difficult to replicate on your end.

Hi Are you storing these files locally on your Mac, or is it on a shared network drive? As we recommend that you use a local drive to save project files. https://portswigger.net/burp/documentation/desktop/projects/create-project-file
