" E/launcher - Process exited with error code 199" error am getting when tried to run the protractor

[iamsarav]

I am a new Protractor.

1. my conf.js file has : exports.config = { seleniumAddress: 'http://localhost:3000/login', specs: ['todo-spec.js'], capabilities: { 'browserName': 'chrome', chromeOnly:true , directConnect: true } };

2.my 'todo-spec.js' file has :

describe('Authentication capabilities', function() {
  var email = element(by.id('inputusername'));
  var password = element(by.id('inputPassword'));
  var loginButton = element(by.class('btn-success'));

it('should redirect to the login page if trying to load protected page while not authenticated', function() {
    browser.get('http://localhost:3000/login');
    loginURL = browser.getCurrentUrl();
    email.sendKeys("demo");
    password.sendKeys("demo");
    loginButton.click();

  });  
 });

but when i try to run the protractor by the following command "protractor "filepath\conf.js", Im getting " E/launcher - Process exited with error code 199" error.

can anyone please let me know, where I'm doing mistake?

This sounds like a general support question. Please, use one of the appropriate support channels for these types of questions. _{GitHub issues are reserved for bug reports and feature requests.}

That said, a similar error was thrown when using Chrome v54 with older version of the ChromeDriver/Protractor (see https://github.com/angular/angular-cli/issues/2176#issuecomment-253496181). It shouldn't happen with Protractor v4.0.9+ though (which is what angular-phonecat is using), so not sure if it is related.
