Anyone experiencing issues using msedgedriver for version 105?

[Quorie]

I had the issue previously with version 100 where it crashes upon opening Edge. 101, 102, 103, and 104 all behave nicely, but I'm starting to see 105 in my environment and it's crashing as soon as Edge opens.

Here's my code if that's relevant:

#include "wd_core.au3"
#include "wd_helper.au3"
#include <wd_capabilities.au3>
#include <AD.au3>


;Detects which version of Edge is installed and selects the respective version of msedgedriver.

$oEdgeVersionArray = StringSplit($oEdgeVersion, ".")
$oEdgeVersion = $oEdgeVersionArray[1]

$oMSDriverPath = "C:\senthelp\AutoIT Drivers\"
if($oEdgeVersion == 100) Then $oMSDriverPath &= "msedgedriver100.exe"
if($oEdgeVersion == 101) Then $oMSDriverPath &= "msedgedriver101.exe"

No... I just checked and it ran ok AFAICS. Can you show us the complete results from the Scite output panel?

[Danp2]

Also, you should check out _WD_WaitElement, which could be used to eliminate all of your For..Next loops.

[Quorie]

Here's the output from Scite:

_WD_Option ==> Success [0] : Parameters:   Option=Port   Value=9515
_WD_Option ==> Success [0] : Parameters:   Option=DriverParams   Value=--verbose, --remote-debugging=false

 

And that's it. Here's the log I have from the edge driver:

I'll check that out. It would be a lot cleaner than the hard coding for sure.

You should update both of these UDFs.

FWIW, I saw similar behavior when using mismatched versions of the browser / webdriver. You should manually verify the version numbers involved.

Unfortunately that yielded the same results. I downloaded the newest stable msedgedriver, updated my webdriver to 10.1, and downloaded the newest WinHTTP files. Here are those results from the log:

You need to manually grab the source from this link and update your local copy.

Have you tried removing the comma?

I copy and pasted the file from that link and replaced it in the include file, and I also removed that comma from the debug call. Same results.

@QuorieYour setup is unique, so we can only guess at what the issue might be. Here are some ideas for you to try --

• As previously mentioned, you should manually verify the version numbers involved for both the browser and the webdriver
• Add debugging code to your script so that you can observe the value of variables
• Try removing the "binary" portion of your desiredCapabilities string
• Test with a different script, such as wd_demo, that doesn't depend on the logic / results associated with version.bat

Removing binary worked! I'm going to package this up and test on the computers running different versions to make sure. Thank you so much!

[Quorie]

Unfortunately it's failing on any computer other than mine but I'll troubleshooting that myself and report back if I'm not able to figure out what's going on.

[Danp2]

Check out _WD_GetBrowserPath to see if it will work in your environment.

[Quorie]

It ended up being a bit of sloppiness on my part. My initial check for the Edge version was being superseded too fast by _WD_Startup and it would pull the wrong version. What I think happened after that is even though the second run would get the right version, the wrong driver from the first run would still be running in the background since the script wouldn't progress and never get to _WD_DeleteSession / _WD_Shutdown at the end.

I switched my ShellExecute at the beginning of the code to RunWait and that resolved the weird interaction.

I also tested using _WD_WaitElement but the site I'm using generates the fields before it makes them interactable. Due to that, I need to loop using _WD_ElementAction as a boolean to tell when the page is ready to move on. Otherwise with just _WD_WaitElement it clicks on basically an image and doesn't progress.

Did you try using the $iOptions parameter? Instead of this --

;Looks for the Production icon and clicks once loaded.
$oLaunchEpic = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, '//img[@alt="Production"]')
For $var = 10000 to 0 Step -1
    If(_WD_ElementAction($sSession, $oLaunchEpic, 'click')) Then ExitLoop
    sleep(250)
    $oLaunchEpic = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, '//img[@alt="Production"]')
 Next

It would look something like this --

;Looks for the Production icon and clicks once loaded.
$oLaunchEpic = _WD_WaitElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, '//img[@alt="Production"]', Default, Default, $_WD_OPTION_Visible + $_WD_OPTION_Enabled)
If @error = $_WD_ERROR_Success Then
    _WD_ElementAction($sSession, $oLaunchEpic, 'click')
EndIf

Yup, that works! I went ahead and replaced all my loops and it works wonderfully. Thanks Dan!
