I am new to playwright and can someone help me how to resolve this error?

This is the browser initiation method in base test

public void initBrowser() {
        playwright = Playwright.create();
        String headless = config.headLess;

        boolean isHeadless = Boolean.parseBoolean(headless);
        browser = playwright.chromium().launch(new BrowserType.LaunchOptions().setHeadless(isHeadless));
        System.out.println(browser);
        context = browser.newContext();
        System.out.println(context);
        page = context.newPage();
    }

This is the closeBrowser method in base test

public void closeBrowser() {
    context.close();
    browser.close();
    playwright.close();
}

This is the hooks class

public class Hooks { BasePage basePage = new BasePage();

@Before
public void setup() {
    basePage.initBrowser();
}

@After
public void tearDown() {
    basePage.closeBrowser();
}

}

When run the code I see this error. Browser opens, but closes straightaway without running further steps. Framework is BDD(cucumber) with playwright and Java.This issue is only when run on the code using chromium on mac machine(we ran this code on windows and all looks good). This code also worked fine on Firefox and Webkit (mac/windows both).
