Ian Glover commented on WTR-427:
--------------------------------
I can reproduce this issue, when connecting to intranet sites on Windows 7. It
is also discussed at
http://www.mail-archive.com/wtr-development@rubyforge.org/msg00011.html
I found two work arounds:
- Run Watir from a shell with administrator permissions.
- Set protected mode on for intranet sites.
The later seems to be the opposite advice to the aforementioned thread, I'm not
sure why: it may be because I first connect to a Internet site and then to
intranet site so the two zones have to be the same.

> Key: WTR-427
> URL: http://jira.openqa.org/browse/WTR-427
> Project: Watir
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Other
> Affects Versions: 1.6.5
> Environment: Watir 1.6.5
> Ruby 1.8.6-p111
> Gem 1.3.6
> Windows 7 Enterprise (version 6.1, build 7600)
> Internet Explorer 8 (version 8.0.7600.16385)
> Reporter: Mark Faust
> Priority: Blocker
>
> I just installed Watir on a Windows 7 workstation. Almost every operation
> under IE is returning a WIN32OLERuntimeError for unknown property or method,
> followed by an error code and an announcement that the interface is unknown
> or the RPC server is unavailable. The same operations are not problematic
> under Firefox. This is not occurring after opening and closing many IE
> windows (a problem that was apparently quite frequent under Win Vista in the
> past), it occurs with the first window opened. I installed Ruby, updated the
> Gem and installed Watir as an administrative user.
> An example irb session follows:
> C:\ruby>irb
> irb(main):001:0> require 'Watir'
> => true
> irb(main):002:0> ie = Watir::IE.new
> => #<Watir::IE:0x4bba590 url="about:blank" title="">
> irb(main):003:0> ie.goto "http://localhost/demo";
> => 0.225
> irb(main):004:0> ie.text_field(:name, "username").set "GWashington"
> WIN32OLERuntimeError: unknown property or method `document'
> HRESULT error code:0x800706b5
> The interface is unknown.
