Hello!

I'm having trouble understanding what to do with this error:

Job spiderAjax started
log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (com.crawljax.core.configuration.CrawlActionsBuilder).
log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly.
log4j:WARN See http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/faq.html#noconfig for more info.
Job spiderAjax found 0 URLs

This error happens using zaproxy/zap-bare:latest, with the Automation Framework.

If I use ghcr.io/zaproxy/zaproxy:stable with the webswing GUI to run the same Automation Framework job (same job.yaml file), I don't get an error, and the ajax spider finds over a thousands URLs.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks

Hi,

The bare image does not include browsers/Firefox.

We need to look at the log warns though, that should not be happening.

Best regards.
