Hunchly Dashboard does not open on Kali Linux, TraceLabs VM

Modified on Tue, 7 Oct at 8:19 AM

Kali Linux, the TraceLab VM, and Parrot OS run applications as root by default, which Hunchly is not designed to do. Some additional steps are required to make Hunchly open on these platforms:

  1. Open /usr/bin/hunchly in your text editor of choice
    1. In this guide, I'm going to use nano. You can open the file with nano by typing this command into the terminal: nano /usr/bin/hunchly
  2. Add a space and then --no-sandbox to the end of the line reading "exec /usr/lib/hunchly/Hunchly". It should look like this:

  3. Save and exit
    1. To save and exit with nano, press Ctrl+O to save, then Ctrl+X to exit
  4. The Hunchly Dashboard will now open
