I'm installing ruby/watir/watir-webdriver on a new machine with the hopes
of updating my existing automation to run on ie, ff, chrome, and opera.
I have ie and ff working and am struggling with getting chrome working.
I downloaded chromedriver and put it in the ruby/bin directory. When I try
to open chrome using irb, I get...
C:\Ruby>irb
DL is deprecated, please use Fiddle
irb(main):001:0> require "watir-webdriver"
=> true
irb(main):002:0> browser = Watir::Browser.new :chrome
ChildProcess::LaunchError: Unknown error (Windows says "The operation
completed successfully.", but it did not.)

I've searched for this error message but the only thing I've found are
comments stating that there could be an error in chromedriver. Chrome
never comes up.
The version of chromedriver I downloaded is: chromedriver_win_26.0.1383.0
because I read somewhere that chromedriver2_win32_0.8.zip
<http://code.google.com/p/chromedriver/downloads/detail?name=chromedriver2_win32_0.8.zip&can=2&q=>wasn't
ready.
This is a list of the gems I have installed:
