Re: Ranorex fails to run, system.TypeInitializationException

Hello Johannes,

After talking with my team we decided our solution contains too much sensitive information. We discussed sending it with the information removed but that may alter the solution enough to not be useful for your troubleshooting. What are your thoughts?

Thank you

Re: Ranorex fails to run, system.TypeInitializationException

There was no Debug folder in the <Project>\bin folder, so that config file does not exist. There is one in the project directory.

Thank you.

Re: Ranorex fails to run, system.TypeInitializationException

The InnerException pointed out a section of the app.config file that wasn't correct. I removed the section and Visual Studio is working again. Ranorex is still seeing the null value error, and I agree that this is an app.config problem still. I've been looking for where the path to locate the app.co...

Re: Ranorex fails to run, system.TypeInitializationException

The problem is I can't do any debugging involving MailLogger because if it is referenced it crashes. I turned off Debug Just My Code, set a breakpoint and tried again but it still crashed. Now I will try the other Core.dll

Edit: Changing out the dll did nothing.

Re: Ranorex fails to run, system.TypeInitializationException

The app file is in the project and the values are not null. I recently deleted everything on my machine and got a fresh copy of latest in an effort to solve this problem. My next step will be replacing the Ranorex.Core.dll with a coworker's who isn't having problems. If that doesn't do it I will rei...

Re: Ranorex fails to run, system.TypeInitializationException

I had a coworker go through the debugger step by step while I watched the MailLogger hit the proper constructor with no errors. My machine is the only one with problems. When I comment out all references to MailLogger the code works in Ranorex but in VS the system.TypeInitializationException still h...

Re: Ranorex fails to run, system.TypeInitializationException

I have tried a clean install and reboot, didn't make a difference. This code hasn't been touched in over 200 days and never had any errors before, which is why I think the problem is something else. The error happens before the first line of code is reached in VS, naturally it would occur in Main. u...

Re: Ranorex fails to run, system.TypeInitializationException

I have tried release and debug mode in both VS and Ranorex. The error doesn't change, although in Ranorex the report doesn't say TypeInitialzationError:
ranorexError.PNG
I'm thinking of replacing the Ranorex.Core.dll file on my machine with a coworker's copy to see if that makes a difference.

Re: Ranorex fails to run, system.TypeInitializationException

Thank you for replying so quickly. I went to the options but the "Pause on handled Exceptions" was already off. I tried it turned on, nothing changed. Just to be clear, I am seeing this not just while debugging, it happens no matter how I try to run the code. Is there any more information I could gi...

Ranorex fails to run, system.TypeInitializationException

Hello, I recently started having a problem with the Ranorex.Core.dll. Whenever a test case is run, a runtime error occurs immediately. systemInitializationError.PNG When run with the debugger it is clear the code does not run any lines, it crashes as soon as it starts. I have tried reinstalling Rano...

Re: Trouble with references while reading from Excel

I found a fix. Before I tried like this, which did not work. if(reportSheet.Cells[i,j].Value2 != null) { Console.WriteLine(range.Cells[i,j].Value2.ToString()); } Separating the range assignment and the value2 assignment did the trick. Edit: after doing a bit more work, I found a few more problems an...

Trouble with references while reading from Excel

Re: Repository won't save properly

I am using TFS 2015 and I generally edit with the entire solution loaded. Turns out restarting Ranorex wasn't enough but restarting my computer fixed the issue.

Repository won't save properly

When I add items to the repository and then try to save it doesn't save on the same file, rather it acts as though I chose 'Save as...' and opens a windows explorer to determine a new save location. What might be causing this? How do I force the original repository to retain the changes?

Thank you.

Yes, that gave me some ideas to try out. Thank you!
