Kali 2024.4 - Legion crashing

Kali Linux Forums Kali Linux Troubleshooting

Hello.

I am running Kali 2024.4 using VirtualBox. I am trying to run Legion but it is crashing after typing the target. I already tried some solutions like reinstalling or editing config file on [StageNmapSetting].
This already happened in past versions of Kali like 2024.2 but it was ok in 2024.3 and now back in 2024.4.

When running in terminal I get this:

did you install virtual box guest additions on your host?

have you fully updated Kali

sudo apt update
sudo apt full-upgrade -y

Hello.

Yes, guest adds are installed and kali fully updated.

had the same sort of issues after trying legion myself, but not always in the same place, random crashes at different points in the process, sometimes near the beginning, other times further along, but always with that same database error.
I’d say when it gets no data back on a query, instead of inserting a null for that database column entry, it instead tries to write the next data available, and it then fails as its the wrong data type for that column, and crashes out.

after a dig around the developers github repo, there will apparently be a new legion release pretty soon, and it appears to be a known error;
