Zap 2.13.0 on Kali Linux keeps crashing

[Chris McLaughlin]

I'm a new Zap user. I'm using Zap 2.13.0 on Kali Linux.

I was doing some updates in Manage Add-Ons and then did an automatic scan and Zap crashed. (zsh: killed     ./zap.sh)

It continues to crash when I use it, either in automatic or manual mode.

I've reviewed the FAQs (https://www.zaproxy.org/faq/) and tried looking through the logs (I can't find them other than in my terminal window).

I can't do any updates (which is weird because when I did them the first time, I did not select all of them.

I've tried removing the directory completely and uncompressing the tar file again. 

(ZAP_2.13.0_Linux.tar.gz, which I downloaded from https://www.zaproxy.org/

What should I do?

Thank you,

Chris

Hi Chris,

Thats a bit strange - ZAP shouldnt normally crash.

How much memory do you have available?

This FAQ covers where to find the logs: https://www.zaproxy.org/faq/somethings-not-working-what-should-i-do/#check-the-log-file

It would be good to know if you can find the zap.log file and if theres anything "interesting" in it.

Cheers,

Simon
