iMacros EOL - Attention!

The renewal maintenance has officially ended for Progress iMacros effective November 20, 2023 and all versions of iMacros are now considered EOL (End-of-Life). The iMacros products will no longer be supported by Progress (aside from customer license issues), and these forums will also no longer be moderated from the Progress side.

Thank you again for your business and support.

Sincerely,
The Progress Team

not running with runner / running with out runner

Post by JonnyDee » Sat Nov 15, 2014 8:17 pm

Config:
VirtualBox Win7x64 Ultimate, iMacros 9, develop on IM browser, testing & production is IE11, starting IMRunner.exe manually & RunAs Agent verifies runner is active w 1 session, executing a ***.php

Problem:
'runner' only works for the IM browser. RunAs Agent only shows 1 active. Regardless if I start IE11 before or after manually starting 'runner'.

RunAs Agent shows 0 instances of IE/IM browsers if IM browser isn't open, and 1 IM/IE if IM browser is open (even if IE11 is/isnt open). the ***.php only executes on IM browser. :shock:

Eventually I need to use IE11 as the browser for ***.PHP and ***.JS so I am wanting this to work asap. :?

For some reason I decided to run IM browser without 'runner' started, (ie 'X'd RunAs Agent and there is no instance in TaskManager) and the ***.php ran correctly in IM browser (did a restart) but still not in IE11. :cry:


Suggestions are appreciated!

No idea on how to help you, I don't use the iMacros Browser nor IMRunner..., open a Ticket with TechSupport, I would say..., and come back to this Thread to post the final Feedback/Solution...
- (F)CI(M) = (Full) Config Info (Missing): iMacros + Browser + OS (+ all 3 Versions + 'Free'/'PE'/'Trial').
- FCI not mentioned: I don't even read the Qt...! (or only to catch Spam!)
- Script & URL help a lot for more "educated" Help...

I learn so much answering my own questions! :roll:

Open IE, choose 'tools', then 'Internet options', click on the 'Advanced' tab, slide down to 'Security' and check the following, 'Allow active content to run in files on my computer'. Click on Apply and OK. 'go to' http://localhost/myfile.php :lol:
