Re: [Wtr-general] Intermittent RPC error
I determined that it was a timing thing with closing/opening browsers, I added a sleep 1 inbetween and haven't got the error in a couple of days. I think it is just going too fast for the system sometimes... - Posted via Jive Forums http://forums.openqa.org/thread.jspa?threadID=4500messageID=13163#13163 ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general
Re: [Wtr-general] Intermittent RPC error
Yep! It's an issue with IE trying to re-open itself too quickly while closing. From what I've seen on the list and tried personally, the sleep statement is the exact solution you're looking for.

[Wtr-general] Intermittent RPC error
Hi Once and a while I get the following two errors: WIN32OLERuntimeError: Unknown property or method: `visible' HRESULT error code:0x800706be The remote procedure call failed. WIN32OLERuntimeError: Unknown property or method `quit' HRESULT error code:0x800706ba The RPC server is unavailable. Is this caused by something I'm doing wrong or is this a flaw in Watir or the Win32 Ruby library? I'm using Watir 1.4.1 with Ruby 1.8.2-15.

Is this caused by something I'm doing wrong or is this a flaw in Watir or the Win32 Ruby library? I'm using Watir 1.4.1 with Ruby 1.8.2-15. Thanks This is a flaw in Watir, for which there are a couple of workarounds. This can happen in the following scenario 1. create browser 2. close browser 3. create browser -- error sometimes happens here The problem lies in the way IE is structured and the way that Watir 1.4 interacts with it. Specifically, Watir creates a client windows that interacts with the IE RPC Server. This is not a web server, but rather the IE process running on your computer. When the last client to this server is closed, the server will also start closing, but this happens asynchronously. In your case, you are probably trying to get a new IE window, and it is trying to connect to the IE RPC server that is actually in the process of closing down. The simplest workaround is to reuse IE windows instead of opening and closing them. Another workaround is to leave IE window open at the beginning of your session (it can be invisible) and then when you open and close windows, the IE RPC Server will never shutdown, because there always will be one window connected to it. Perhaps the best solution is to start a separate IE process for each IE window. We have prototyped this approach in the Watir/Contrib directory of 1.5.1.1100.

I've never had this error, but there are a couple of threads on the mailing list which might help you out: http://www.mail-archive.com/wtr-general@rubyforge.org/msg04445.html http://www.mail-archive.com/wtr-general@rubyforge.org/msg03870.html -Charley On 9/22/06, [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Once and a while I get the following two errors: WIN32OLERuntimeError: Unknown property or method: `visible' HRESULT error code:0x800706be The remote procedure call failed.
