Issue
I want to use the Browser View Plugin for Owasp Zap, but getting the following error:
19529 [ZAP-BootstrapGUI] WARN org.zaproxy.zap.extension.browserView.ExtensionHttpPanelBrowserView - Unable to use JavaFX:
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javafx/embed/swing/JFXPanel
I have openjfx, openjfx-source, libopenjfx-jni, libopenjfx-java, libcontrolsfx-java and libeasybind-java installed. I also have tried it with openjdk8 and 14.
My system is Ubuntu 20.10, but I also get the same error when I use the machines from tryhackme.
Thanks for your help
Solution
In order yo use the Browser view add-on you have to install JavaFX.
sudo apt install openjfx for Ubuntu.
You may also need to set the jfx path (https://openjfx.io/openjfx-docs/#install-javafx):
export PATH_TO_FX=path/to/javafx/lib
Per: https://github.com/zaproxy/zaproxy/issues/6339#issuecomment-758173453, you may also need to start ZAP as follows (or edit the shell script to do the same):
$ java --module-path /usr/share/openjfx/lib/ --add-modules javafx.swing,javafx.web zap.jar
