I opened Katalon Studio today to continue making test cases and I was given a loading screen upon selecting my project where it hasn’t moved beyond “Generating Global Variables”
Unsure what other information that I can provide, please let me know what I can add to better help determine what the issue is.
Yea, anytime the studio has a problem loading a project, I find that doing the following seems to help:
In simple terms, what it does is remove all of the binaries from the project, then lets the studio recompile all of your project code from scratch the next time you open it.
If it turns out that this helps OP, I’ll go ahead and post a tips and tricks topic with more detail.
hello @Brandon_Hein ,
i have the same problem but on mode cli it’s about writing permission on the project folder but i am sure that i am running test as administrator

I had the same issue. Katalon Studio version 5.10.1 & 5.10.0
I solved my issue by: just removing other ".glbl files (other than default) out of the “profiles” folders.
restarted Katalon Studio and it opened.
–> I then pasted by my other ".glbl files back in the profiles folder
–>went back into katalon studio and refresh
–>I closed Katalon Studio and reopen Katalon Studio and error was gone.
@devalex88 you are correct this dosen’t fix the GString issue because the issue came back and my work around is to remove all the other “profiles” and reopen the project and the errors goes alway.
Thanks for the quick response!
It is happening all the time, and with all my Katalon test cases.
I will send you a part of the project for investigation.
