Quick Scan attack not starting and blocking Attack button access

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open ZAProxy
2. Enter localhost URL to attack (this case, it was openam:808/xxx/redirecturl)
3. Click attack

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected it to attack the URL, or fail with a message and give a chance to 
re-attack

Instead:
the attack button greys out, the stop button is enabled and Progress: is "Not 
Started"
Clicking the stop button greys out the start button, but the attack button is 
no longer available.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
OS X 10.9.5 - ZAP - 2.3.1 (2)

Please provide any additional information below.
Changing the mode from standard to protected, then back to standard makes the 
attack button accessible again

Are there any errors in the zap.log file?

Firstly, apologies about the lack of log. I am still getting to grips with ZAP.

Secondly, apologies but it has started working now (even after numerous 
restarting etc while it didn't!)

I will keep the log tailed why I play about with the application. 

Would it be best to close this for now and create another issue when I 
encounter it again or update this issue?

Argh, frustration with it playing nice with an openam 302 redirect!!! :)

Okay, I restarted ZAP and reproduced the error. This is all that appears in the 
log while this occurs:

Nothing there then :(
Can you explain a little bit more about how you can reproduce it?
And what you are doing differently from when it worked ok?
