LineageGlueRule "java_web" exception RNRX4.0

Post by krstcs » Wed Dec 12, 2012 5:39 pm

I am seeing a LineageGlueRule exception being thrown for "java_web" with Ranorex 4.0.

I have deleted all ProgramData folders for Ranorex 3, but still get the issue.

EDIT TO ADD: OK, dropped reporting to debug level and now I have the following in the report:
**************************************************************************************
"LineageGlueRule 'java_web' caused NullReferenceException on Execute. Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

at Ranorex.Plugin.JavaWebRule.CreateApplet(GlueRuleExecutionState state) at Ranorex.Plugin.JavaWebRule.Execute(GlueRuleExecutionState state) at Ranorex.Core.ElementEngine.ApplyGlueRules(Element element, GlueRuleExecutionState state)"
**************************************************************************************

Again, this isn't stopping my test, but it should not be displayed.

This happens on both my development system with Ranorex 4 Pro, and my test system (VBox VM) with Ranorex 4 Runtime.

Both are Windows 7 x64.

The system under test is Silverlight 4, with no Java on the front-end (I assume that the java_web reference is for Javascript...).

Hello,

Thank you for reporting that issue.
Are you using Java (e.g. to access a web service) within your Silverlight application?
Are there some other java programs opened on your machine?

In order to reproduce this issue it would be helpful to get access to your application or to get a sample application.

Regards,
Markus (T)

Due to the nature of our application and the contract with the customer, I am not a liberty to release the application or a snapshot of it.

I do have a Websphere server running in the background (runs on Java), but the front-end interface, which is where Ranorex is working, does not have any Java in it, it is pure Silverlight.

This appears to only happen on interactions with the Silverlight container, but it happens with every interaction with anything inside that container.

I am working on re-producing the problem in a generic application that will allow you to verify the issue.

I am seeing this error since upgrading to 4.0.0 as well. My application is flash/java via a browser.

LineageGlueRule 'java_web' caused NullReferenceException on Execute. Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

Anyone else seeing this or have a resolution/workaround would be great!

Hello,

This is a bug in Ranorex 4.0. It will be fixed in our next release, which is planned to be released in the next few days.
