Failed to execute default Terminal Emulator on Kali Linux.

[Stroichik]

Before opening an issue, please try starting terminator with an empty config file, by issuing terminator -u -g /dev/null and see if it starts normally.

If it does, and you still want to open the bug, then please attach the config file, usually found at $HOME/.config/terminator/config to the issue

There was no config file, until i made a new profile in Preferences. This is all that is inside that file now.

[global_config] [keybindings] [profiles] [[default]] background_darkness = 0.95 background_type = transparent palette = "#1f2229:#d41919:#5ebdab:#fea44c:#367bf0:#9755b3:#49aee6:#e6e6e6:#198388:#ec0101:#47d4b9:#ff8a18:#277fff:#962ac3:#05a1f7:#ffffff" use_theme_colors = True [[New Profile]] [layouts] [[default]] [[[window0]]] type = Window parent = "" [[[child1]]] type = Terminal parent = window0 [plugins]

Fill out as many of these fields as you can

This may be fixed in master. There was a bug with option parsing. I hope to have a new release out soon.

[Stroichik]

It would be nice, yeah.

@Stroichik Is this fixed in the latest version (2.1.3)?

[Stroichik]

@Vulcalien I just tried it on Nikto and Sqlmap after upgrading Kali yesterday. Seems to be fixed now, yay!

Great! I'm closing the issue, thanks for reporting the problem!
