So … long story short, after reading some hints here and there, I managed to finally run katalon 6.1.5 (yeeei!), almost decently,
on Linux, with GUI, by tweaking the ini file (added the --launcher.GTK_version option and changed the Xmx value).
OS used - redcore linux (gentoo derivate) with kernel 4.19.20, gcc-8.2.0, glibc-2.28-r1337, gtk±2.24.32-r1337, webkit-gtk-2.22.6
Portage 2.3.62 (python 3.5.5-final-0, default/linux/amd64/17.0/hardened, gcc-8.2.0, glibc-2.28-r1337, 4.19.20-redcore-lts-r1 x86_64)

Now the funny part, attempting to create a WebRequest, once I hit ‘Save’ it spit’s he following error, see the screenshot:
Tweaks I tried:
Somehow in the end i managed to create a web-request (manually I think)… however, when hitting Play, nothing happens.
After that I tried to make a test case, same behaviour, attempting to save it raise the same error (unable to save part). Closing Katalon and re-opening, the script was there and sort of working.
But those are different stories, let’s try for the moment to focus on the main issue.
Attached the log starting with a clean session /project and attempting to create a Draft Request > saw some NPE in there:
katalon_log.zip (2.5 KB)
If any additional info about the system are needed, please let me know.
Cheers!
