Hello All,

Just faced an issue with opening/running Ajax Spider on Linux machines.

For example, was tested on Kali and Centos for firefox and firefox-headless.
Geckodriver is configured and working from the mentioned configured PATH, but is not opened from ZAP:

Version of the ZAP is 2.10.0 with all the updated versions of add-ons.

Also, was testing the 0.28.0 version of geckodriver, but result is the same.

What could be the reason, and how to fix it?

Hum, you've got the latest webdriver which is the first thing I'd check.
Is the Firefox binary on the path?
You could try specifying it in the Binaries / Firefox field.

Can you paste any relevant looking errors from the zap.log file here (obfuscating any sensitive information of course).

Cheers,

Simon
