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

I have the same issues as well on Firefox 33.01.

For me it is never the same action. It is a random spot in the script.

I also run a loop of 300 plays. I can get freeze on #117 after working fine up until then.

Sometimes it will freeze and sometimes I get an infinite loop of a single line.

Thanks Tech Support.

I confirm that I have had no issue with the 8.8.7 addon.

I tested several scripts (js+iim) on the new version with :
- Win XP + FF31
- Win XP + FF33.0.3 (new Cache Bakend activated)
- Win 7 Pro + FF33.0.3 (both new Cache Bakend activated and desactivated)

Skippyto.

Sorry the issue is still not solved for me under Windows 8.1, FF33.0.3 and iMacros 8.8.7. The script I posted on Tue Sep 28 under the same topic still blocks at line 13. The form field is not filled and the file is not saved in the folder indicated. Instead the file is saved in the default Windows download folder. When repeating the download the file is in addition not overwritten but an new file SA(1).csv is created.

Hello, is there anybody out there? ;-)
I still have this issue. Can anyone (especially the support) reproduce it?

Once a new version is released, there's a high chance that developers will ignore posts referring to previous versions which are supposed to be properly fixed even it they're still buggy.

So, my recommendation is to open a new thread with a clear, unique and unambiguous subject, just like I did here:
Please, add your comments there, so that the developers could quickly focus on the issues related to current version.
