Can not launch IE #6

Open agdev opened 11 years ago

agdev commented 11 years ago

Hi, I have OS: Win 7 x 64 Karma: v0.9.3 Grunt:grunt-cli v0.1.9 grunt v0.4.1

I am getting error below:

WARN [config]: "/" is proxied, you should probably change urlRoot to avoid conflicts INFO [karma]: Karma v0.9.3 server started at http://localhost:9876/

INFO [launcher]: Trying to start IE again. ERROR [launcher]: Cannot start IE

INFO [launcher]: Trying to start IE again. ERROR [launcher]: Cannot start IE

INFO [launcher]: Trying to start IE again. ERROR [launcher]: Cannot start IE

I set the path to IE_BIN to C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe http://localhost is added to Local Intranet zone and Protected mode is disabled. The issue is still happening. I looked at karma-runner/karma/issues:

Please advise

mkern1 commented 11 years ago

Same issue here.

OS: Win 7 x 64 Karma: v0.10.2

I also set the path to IE_BIN to C:\Program Files (x86)\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe http://localhost is added to Local Intranet zone and Protected mode is disabled.

I'm having the same issue. Here's some console output for reference, maybe it helps:

I can see the browser opening three times.

noresjo commented 10 years ago

I'm experiencing the exact same thing as @sjmulder.

thomaspons commented 10 years ago

Same thing here !

yinxiaomei commented 10 years ago

I also have the same!!!

ognus commented 10 years ago

Same :) IE 10 on Win 7 x 64 Karma: v0.10.2

luozhihua commented 10 years ago

I also have the same!!! IE opened three times, and console print message: "Can't start IE"

sjmulder commented 10 years ago

The issue does not occur for me on Windows 8.1 + IE 11:

PS> grunt test:unit --browsers IE
Running "tests:jqlite" (tests) task
INFO [karma]: Karma v0.11.0 server started at http://localhost:9876/
INFO [launcher]: Starting browser IE

IE 11.0.0 (Windows): Executed 2232 of 2232 SUCCESS (8.436 secs / 5.976 secs)

…

This is the same system that previously had this issue on Windows 8 + IE 10.

shustariov-andrey commented 10 years ago

Having the same issue on Windows 8 + IE 10, karma v0.10.2.

SathishN commented 10 years ago

I had the same issue on Win 7 + IE 10, Workaround by CoffeeAndMe [https://github.com/karma-runner/karma-ie-launcher/issues/3#issuecomment-23428943] on a other issue helped me.

Co-workers suggestion at disabling Automatic Crash Recovery seems to have helped. It will now restart IE when it encounters an issue and the subsequent launch will attach to the test runner correctly.

shustariov-andrey commented 10 years ago

Worked for me. Thank you very much!

jamilellis commented 10 years ago

The methods above as well as disabling automatic crash recovery didn't resolve issue for me. I'm still getting three windows opening and then no tests being run. Win 7 + IE10 . Any other ideas?

sylvain-hamel commented 10 years ago

I'd like to know if anyone is still experiencing this issue? Thanks!

kenglxn commented 9 years ago

I also experienced this issue after upgrading from IE9 to IE11 on our build server (Windows Server 2008 R2 64bit).

It seems like karma-ie-launcher was unable to kill the initial ie process (see wmic comment section in index.js), resulting in the tests actually running but without being connected to karma. During the testrun three IE instances were launched, one of which actually ran the tests, one with "karma disconnected" on screen, and the last with "unable to connect" on screen.

For me the solution was:

change IE_BIN env variable from:

IE_BIN=C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer (x86)\iexplore.exe

to:

IE_BIN=C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe

And disabling Automatic Crash Recovery as mentioned in https://github.com/karma-runner/karma-ie-launcher/issues/6#issuecomment-26907201 made the tests run when logged into the server as a normal user.

I also had to use PSTools to get IE configured on the system account. Without this the system account will not be able to connect because of the initial configuration dialog that pops up the first time you launch IE, leaving karma sad with the following log statement:

WARN [IE 11.0.0 (Windows 7)]: Disconnected (1 times), because no message in 10000 ms.

To launch IE as the system account which is the same account jenkins uses:

psexec -sid "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"

Then just complete the initial config steps in the dialog.

Env: Windows Server 2008 R2 64bit Node v0.10.32 Karma version: 0.12.24 karma-ie-launcher@0.1.5

@kenglxn Follwing your method worked but it spawns ie without localStorage support.Says "This function is not supported on this system."

pllee commented 8 years ago

@kenglxn +100000 I had a feeling that the initial prompt was causing it not to run but I didn't have access to the system account. Running your steps fixed my issue.

ElliotHume commented 8 years ago

I'm still having this error, I have followed all steps and I doesn't seem to be doing anything different but it also now throws in the error of IE 11.0.0 (Windows 7 0.0.0) ERROR You need to include some adapter that implements __karma__.start method! along with opening IE 3 times and the 15 07 2016 11:24:29.128:WARN [IE 11.0.0 (Windows 7 0.0.0)]: Disconnected (2 times), because no message in 10000 ms.

I, too, am having the same issue. Win 7 x64, IE 11. If I have IE opened, then Karma will attempt to start three browsers and fails. Although my tests run. Here is the output

I have turned off automatic crash recovery, as suggested by SathishN did not resolve the issue.

The work around I have is to run karma first and then open a new browser. But then if I stop karma all my browsers close out. This is inconvenient when watching videos on Angular JS testing.

It is interesting that this issue has been open for 3 years with no solution.

I have the exactly same issue. Win 7 x64, IE 11, Karma v1.1.2. If no IE was open before, Karma works fine. But if an IE was opened already, Karma will attempt to start three browsers and fails. although tests were ran. Here is the output:

This issue points to karma-ie-launcher's README, which solved the problem for me.

@jsouthwo Same here. This solved it:

            IE11: {
                base: "IE",
                flags: ['-extoff']
            },
KevinBrogan commented 5 years ago

I had the same issue, but rather than change the IE browser config to have the -extoff flag, I went into the IE options and manually disabled every extension. Seems to have worked.
