Chrome browser fails to launch

Hi, sometimes when I run my script in GUI (SciTe Editor) or as an executable file, the chrome driver launches but the chrome browser does not but when I re-run the script again - chrome driver launches and so does the browser. Here is the error that I'm getting: 

__WD_Post: StatusCode=0; ResponseText=WinHTTP request timed out before Webdriver...

__WD_Post ==> Send / Recv error: WinHTTP request timed out before Webdriver

_WD_CreateSession: WinHTTP request timed out before Webdriver

_WD_CreateSession ==> Webdriver Exception: HTTP status = 0

Just wondering if there's a way to re-launch both the driver and browser without having to rerun the script/executable.

Thanks for responding, here's the function i have for capabilities:



Func SetupChrome()

    _WD_Option('Driver', 'chromedriver.exe')

    _WD_Option('Port', 9515)

    _WD_Option('DriverParams', '--log-path="' & @ScriptDir & '\chrome.log"')

    $sDesiredCapabilities = '{"capabilities": {"alwaysMatch": {"goog:chromeOptions": {"w3c": true, "args":["start-maximized","disable-infobars"]}}}}'

EndFunc   ;==>SetupChrome

It's not a capabilities issue, it launches sometimes and other times it doesn't launch at all.

@Danp2 Hi, is this some kind of a glitch in Auto It v 3.3.14.5, and  SciTe Editor (32-bit Version 4.2.0)? Or is there a way to solve it?

From a quick read (so I might be wrong), @Danp2 mentions here to try:

  • Update to the latest WinHTTP here
  • Change the default WinHTTP Timeouts
  • Set the following in your capabilities and use _WD_LoadWait  
    "pageLoadStrategy":"none"

If I remember rightly, I had the same problem and set the timeouts in the capabilities which fixed the issue. 

"timeouts": {"implicit": 0, "pageLoad": 60000, "script": 30000}

Try: 

Func SetupChrome()

    _WD_Option('Driver', 'chromedriver.exe')

    _WD_Option('Port', 9515)

    _WD_Option('DriverParams', '--log-path="' & @ScriptDir & '\chrome.log"')

    $sDesiredCapabilities = '{"capabilities": {"alwaysMatch": {"goog:chromeOptions": {"w3c": true, "args":["start-maximized","disable-infobars"], "timeouts": {"implicit": 0, "pageLoad": 60000, "script": 30000}}}}}'

EndFunc   ;==>SetupChrome

I wasn't able to test the above code.

      Wallpaper UDF
      By Kanashius
      This UDF can be used to draw at the Desktop Wallpaper (Windows 8+) with GDI+ without using files.
      The example runs with 60-120fps at my machine, so the speed is acceptable.
      When the script exits, the original wallpaper is restored.
      Have fun :).
      PS: The UDF uses the window between the background and the icons, so it could be used to add an own child window at the desktop. Just look at the begin of __Wallpaper_Startup ($hWorkerW).
       
      Example:

      Help needed with simple workflow for WebDriver UDF
      By TTE26
      For the past two days I've been reading all Wiki pages, installed all the demos etc. but I am still unable to do this simple workflow
      1. I want to use WebDriver UDF to open Chrome (Set chrome option arguments - Window Size, Pixel ratio, device type and platform name, user-agent.)
      2. On new Tab I want to read the tab Title and save it into a TXT file.
      3. I need to save the Session ID with my previosly set Capabilities into a file.
      4. I want to close the chrome window.
      Then
      5. I want to open Chrome again, but with my previosly saved Session ID and Capabilities list from the file.
      6. And minimaze the window state.
      7. After 30 seconds, close the chrome.
      I would really appreciate for the WebDriver UDF Helper file, to have also basic code examples, for non coders. For example how to open a windwow etc., save sessions, etc.
      Anyway, if someone could help me get started and help me with this workflow, that would be much appreaciated. 😔

      inking toolbar to be used during a PowerPoint presentation.
      By sandgre
      Wondering if you can help a teacher out.  For the last few years of remote, hybrid, and in-person teaching I've been using an AutoHotKey script that creates an inking toolbar to be used during a PowerPoint presentation.  (https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?t=79163) The annotation tools available through Ppt are woefully inadequate, and, on my machine at least, jump around all over the place - sometimes on the bottom, sometimes on the left, sometimes on the right.  It's a scavenger hunt every single time.  The inking tool is always available, and recent updates allowed for the addition of lots more colors, which I used for modeling phenomena with students. One tragic day I arrived to school to find that my district IT dep't took away access to AutoHotKey.  No more tool bar. 
      I've been trying to resurrect some programming skills from a past life. I'm working through various tutorials and help files, with the goal of recreating the toolbar in AutoIt.  I'm really needing some help to move things along though.  I've been going through your PowerPoint UDF and all of your functions seem to just relate to editing the slides. Can you point me in the direction of how to create a toolbar that accesses the annotation tools that are available during the slideshow itself?
