Hi Lauren! I've seen this error when the app goes down while my tests are running.
Have you verified that you can access the site manually with IE6? If so, the next step I would try is to use irb to step through your test. If all else fails, I'd uninstall/reinstall IE6 and/or ruby and watir since it seems the problem is just with this one system. Sometimes a fresh start is a quicker solution than troubleshooting a hosed configuration. Hope this helps! -Tiffany On Oct 22, 3:11 pm, LaurenL <llangs...@gmail.com> wrote: > About two weeks ago I stopped being able to run all watir scripts on > my machine.
