Cannot run multiple instances in parallel #18

Closed vmeurisse closed 11 years ago

vmeurisse commented 11 years ago

Hello,

When running two instances of SlimerJS in parallel, you get an error message:

SlimerJS is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing SlimerJS process, or restart your system.

PhantomJS handle this correctly.

Regards

Like Firefox, you have a specific parameter, -no-remote to open a new instance.

laurentj commented 11 years ago

Probably we should have this parameter by default. I'll see.

laurentj commented 11 years ago

We have still an issue. -no-remote seems to not be enough. We have a dialog box opened by the mozilla framework when we launch a second instance..

This seems to be an issue for on Windows 7 x64. A new profile should be created on each instance if I understand the documentation properly but I am receiving an popup that says:

"SlimerJS is already running but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing SlimerJS proecss, or restart your system".

This works fine on Mac (Yosemite 10.10.1 (14B25)) so just seems to be a Windows issue.

@jamesryanbell Please create a new issue since this one is closed long time ago....

jamesryanbell commented 9 years ago

No problem I have created a new issue for this.

Thanks, James
