Trying to autofill username and password

krzyche · January 13, 2022

Hello,

I'm a new to Autoit, i like very much the idea of automatization of work. 😀

For my first task I wanted to automate to process to login to my work VPN. Everything is working fine up to the moment of getting the name of the forms from IE,

I've cut out my code, to the error lines - I want to get collection of the forms on that page, but this code itself is giving me an error:

#include <IE.au3>

$oIE = _IECreate("https://aecom.okta.com/signin/")
Sleep(5000)
$oForm = _IEFormGetCollection($oIE)

Error msg: Line 1785

Return SetError($_IESTATUS_Success, 0, $oObject.document)

Return SetError($_IESTATUS_Success, 0, $oObject.^) ERROR

Error: The requested action with this object has failed.

Can someone advise me what I'm doing wrong?

Does this throw the same error?

; Get a reference to the collection of forms on a page,
; and then loop through them displaying information for each

#include <IE.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>

Local $oIE = _IECreate("https://aecom.okta.com/signin/")
Local $oForms = _IEFormGetCollection($oIE)
MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Forms Info", "There are " & @extended & " form(s) on this page")
For $oForm In $oForms
    MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Form Info", $oForm.name)
Next

Above is Example 2 of _IEFormGetCollection.

Might be worth registering a error handler. Do a search for _IEErrorHandlerRegister.

Yes, using you code, I'm getting the same error.

I haven't search for the _IEErrorHandlerRegister, I don't know how to use that...

I assume IE appears and loads the webpage, correct?

Run this and let us know the output:

; Get a reference to the collection of forms on a page,
; and then loop through them displaying information for each

#include <IE.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>

_IEErrorHandlerRegister('_Error')
Local $oIE = _IECreate("https://aecom.okta.com/signin/")
Local $oForms = _IEFormGetCollection($oIE)
MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Forms Info", "There are " & @extended & " form(s) on this page")
For $oForm In $oForms
    MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Form Info", $oForm.name)
Next

Func _Error($oError)
    ConsoleWrite(@ScriptName & " (" & $oError.scriptline & ") : ==> COM error handler - COM Error intercepted !" & @CRLF & _
            @TAB & "err.number is: " & @TAB & @TAB & "0x" & Hex($oError.number) & @CRLF & _
            @TAB & "err.windescription:" & @TAB & $oError.windescription & @CRLF & _
            @TAB & "err.description is: " & @TAB & $oError.description & @CRLF & _
            @TAB & "err.source is: " & @TAB & @TAB & $oError.source & @CRLF & _
            @TAB & "err.helpfile is: " & @TAB & $oError.helpfile & @CRLF & _
            @TAB & "err.helpcontext is: " & @TAB & $oError.helpcontext & @CRLF & _
            @TAB & "err.lastdllerror is: " & @TAB & $oError.lastdllerror & @CRLF & _
            @TAB & "err.scriptline is: " & @TAB & $oError.scriptline & @CRLF & _
            @TAB & "err.retcode is: " & @TAB & "0x" & Hex($oError.retcode) & @CRLF & @CRLF)
EndFunc

Page is loading correctly.

After using your code I'm getting a response "There are 0 forms(s) on this page",

But there are visible login and password fields right on this page.

Was there no output in the SciTE console?

I'm using Windows 10.

I have the RPC service running, I've done this instruction:

Quote

Method 1:

The RPC (Remote Procedure Call) service in Services should be started and the startup type should be set to Automatic.

Steps:

a. Press Windows key + R.

b. Type services.msc

c. In the Services window, find Remote Procedure Call and right click on it to select Properties.

d. Under the General tab make sure the Startup type is Automatic and the Service status says Started.

I will try do the same on a different computer to see if if works.

A few more solutions here.

Have you tried using _IEAttach to reestablish the connection?

#include <IE.au3>

_IECreate("https://aecom.okta.com/signin/")
$oIE = _IEAttach("AECOM")
$oForms = _IEFormGetCollection($oIE)

krzyche · January 13, 2022

Interestingly on the other computer the code is working without any errors and it result of showing 2 forms.

I'm not sure what setting on the first computer is preventing from working.

I've done pretty everything that was linked here:

I'm having the Symantec Endpoint Protection, but I've turned that off, and it's still the same. The services are working normally...

krzyche · January 13, 2022

Ok, I have found something really interesting. When I run the program SciTE as an Administrator it works fine.

Otherwise, just by double clicking it, there will be an RPC error.

krzyche · January 13, 2022

Does anyone now what rights to add to my windows account to have working RCP ? I doubt I need to be a admin to run the Autoit script.
