Unable to save project

H_D | Last updated: Sep 06, 2018 03:11PM UTC

[Burp Pro v2.0.04beta]Hello! While I'm trying to save project file I am getting following error: "Unable to save project data to the file /../../../../projectname.burp: null" I don't know how to see the full error trace. I'm faced this error on my Mac OS X High Sierra

Thanks for this report. Do you experience the same error when you save the project to another location? Have you checked that the disk has enough space to save the project? Is the location of the disk on a network partition?

Hello. I have also been getting these errors recently. The first time Burp prints the error, it is printed as "null", exactly as the OP mentioned. All attempts after that initial attempt are printed as: "Unable to save project data to the file <PATH>: ext4" I experience this error when trying to save literally anywhere on my system. Both of my disks that I tried saving to have more than enough space. The location of the disk is NOT on a network partition. It has been happening more and more often lately. Please let me know if there's something I can do about this. Nothing worse than working on a project for a full day, only to realize I can't save my progress! My Burp Suite version is: Burp Suite Professional v2020.2.1 - Build 1699

Hi Erim, To confirm, are you experiencing this error on MacOS like the original poster or are you using a different operating system?
