Unable to log data in headless mode

| Last updated: May 06, 2022 10:49PM UTC

Using the follow command, I expect to populate intercepted network traffic within the file specific in the system config file, but it does not populate in headless mode. java -jar -Djava.awt.headless=true burpsuite_community_v2022.3.6.jar --config-file='/some/file/log_config.json' The log file itself gets created, but it does not populate, despite traffic being generated. I have confirmed that burp suite is indeed working in headless mode, but the logged data will not work.
