I'm pretty sure than none of the Watir releases included the 'locate'
method -- that is only in head.
When we created the 1.4.1 release, we were careful to only include minor
fixes and updates that we were pretty sure would not break WET (for 1.4).
It may be worth noting that the regular installers (either the old 1.4 and
earlier or the new 1.4.1 one-click installer) install watir into a
different location than the gem. I do not know what happens if watir is
installed both ways. I suspect that one would overrule the other, but i
don't know which.
The best bet is to uninstall one version of Watir before installing a new
version. Both of the installers for 1.4.1 have uninstall options. (Prior to
that we didn't.)

Hi Stephanie,
This is getting intersting. I just did a gem install of watir myself, but
still
couldn't find the method 'locate' as shown by:
D:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb:3205:in `locate': undefined
However I got the latest version HEAD version from cvs
repository and that version _does_ have the locate method
that is giving you the trouble. I took a quick look at that code and
unfortunately wet's current version wont work with that implementation.
For the current version of WET you need to make sure that you use the
version that got installed off from the gem and not the CVS version.
Your best bet may be to simply copy the Watir.rb from
d:\ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems\watir-1.4.1.rb to
D:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb
Thanks

Raghu,
I installed 1.4 originally then I overwrote that installation via the
gem. The gem is listed as 1.4.1.
Thanks for looking into this!

Hi Stephanie,
Are you using a released version of Watir 1.4 or something off the SCM
repository?
I was trying to locate the source of the problem from your stack trace:
from D:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb:1766:in `assert_exists'
from D:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb:3368:in `set'
and in the version(s) of Watir1.4 that I have, I could not find neither
assert_exists method in line number 1766 nor 'set' method at 3368. If you
are using a version from the SCM could you tell me the exact revision number
so that I could check the same version out here and try it.
Thanks

I apologize in advance if this question has already been asked. I'm
new to the list and the hunting and pecking in the archives didn't
turn up an answer. (Aside: is there a search engine on the archives?)
My problem is I'm getting an error when attempting to do a very simple
assignment to a text field.
require 'WET'
include WET
ie=Browser.new()
ie.goto "http://<URL here>"
ie.show_all_objects
puts "username object exists: " + ie.TextField("name:=username").to_s
ie.TextField("name:=username").set('first.last')
My output confirms that the username field does in fact exist on the page:
username object exists: WebEdit(name:=username)
But then I get this exception:
D:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb:3205:in `locate': undefined
method `getObject' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError)
from D:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb:1766:in `assert_exists'
from D:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb:3368:in `set'
from
D:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/qantom/webobjects/WebEdit.rb:59:in `set'
from D:/ruby/myRuby/AdminTest/simple.rb:9
I'm not sure if this is a WET issue or a Watir issue. What I'm running
on is:
- Win XP
- Watir v1.4
- WET v0.5.1 (for water v1.4, doesn't include the optional component)
Watir by itself access the website just fine, however I have
JavaScript pop-ups so I'm attempting to use WET to access those.
The URL and username do not contain any extended characters.
Assistance is greatly appreciated!
