[wtr-general] Re: jssh error - Watir::Exception::UnableToStartJSShException
Just an update - I didn't end up working from home today, so didn't get a chance to test those things out. However, I had to re-install / setup everything on a different computer (again) at the new office and it's all working perfectly! Once I try out faejon's suggestions, if they don't work, I think I'll setup my environment from scratch again and see if that fixes it! thanks all :) On Apr 24, 5:46 pm, emz452 emz...@gmail.com wrote: Thanks for the suggestions faejon, I'll try these things and let you know how I go (long weekend where I am, so Tuesday will be the next working day for me!)

[wtr-general] Re: jssh error - Watir::Exception::UnableToStartJSShException
Thanks for all your assistance so far guys! Bret - yes, you're right - it is a different issue because my error is produce consistently every time. Alex - 32-bit (Linux emily-desktop 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Wed Jun 18 14:43:41 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux) Is there a way to check if the jssh extension has installed successfully (apart from it appear in the Add-ons Extensions list in Firefox). I keep feeling like something hasn't installed correctly or I've missed a step. Would anyone know if it's possible for router settings to affect the jssh extension? (I'm just thinking of any differences between my work home setup).

hmm - thanks George. I'm not sure if it's the same problem, but if it is the same, is there any way around it?
