Hi Usman, I can probably help you =) The correct order to start up a grid is: 1. start the controller on a central machine e.g. controller
when it starts up it will tell you what its URI is. This is what you'll use to connect other providers e.g. I, [2011-06-04 08:22:15 #99844] INFO -- : Controller started on : *druby:// 10.0.1.158:11235* 2. Now on the remote machines, start up the providers e.g. provider -d webdriver -c *druby://10.0.1.158:11235* Note I need to specify a driver (-d) and the controller's URI (-c). You should see something like this in the console. I, [2011-06-04 08:25:37 #3069] INFO -- : Provider started on : druby:// 10.0.1.158:11236 I, [2011-06-04 08:25:37 #3069] INFO -- : Controller found on : druby:// 10.0.1.158:11235 I, [2011-06-04 08:25:37 #3069] INFO -- : Provider registered : druby:// 10.0.1.158:11235 Are you trying to run 2 browsers on one machine, or 2 browsers on 2 remote machines? If you are starting multiple providers on the same machine then we will need to separate their DRb servers which I can help you with ...
