I am attempting to write an automation script for a process on a website using PhantomJS. I have done this same type of automation many times before, but I am having trouble with this one particular website that uses Oracle Access Manager.
When I log in with Chrome or any other desktop browser, I have no problems. However, when I try to log in with the headless browser I receive an OAM9 error which is very unspecific "for security reasons"
I have tried changing the user agent string and ignoring bad ssl certificates, I am running out of ideas and my higher ups promised this functionality to someone. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm using BurpSuite to intercept the HTTP/HTTPS requests sent when logging in on https://www.nike.com/. I'm trying to achieve this with the following step:
Opening BurpSuite and Firefox
Turning on the proxy intercept
Turning on FoxyProxy on Firefox
Opening the website and trying to logging
These steps usually work for me, but in this case, I'm getting a "we are unable to connect to our servers" error without anything appearing on the intercept tab when trying to logging (I have tried turning off the intercept feature but it still yields the same issue, so I think it might be a proxy and certificate problem).
To clear things up:
I'm running the latest versions of BurpSuite and FireFox.
I have installed and reinstalled the BurpSuite certificate using this guide.
I've tried all of this on my iMac, MacBook and iPhone all of these devices yield the same issue
Here bellow is the error message I'm getting:
Here are my BurpSuite Proxy setting:
(in the Certificate tab I just have Generate CA-signed per-host certificates selected)
I have been using BurpSuite for over 2 years now and it's the first time I'm facing such an issue, any help is appreciated
I have shared my question with the Portswigger support (the team behind BurpSuite) and got the following response:
Hi
Thanks for your message.
We have reproduced the issue in our testing environment.
It looks like Nike.com are performing a fairly sophisticated check to
stop automated tool from accessing parts of their site.
Please let us know if you need any further assistance.

i have installed Jmeter 4.0 in my local machine.
i made some necessary changes for recording traffic using IE browser.
i want to record a travel website's scenario but while doing this my browser gets automatically shuts while recording.
I also tried that website's URL in trusted site mode. I'm still facing the issue. Any help would be appreciated.
You question doesn't contain enough information so we cannot suggest exact steps to overcome the issue. If for any reason you need to continue using IE browser I would recommend checking the following:
jmeter.log file. It is located in "bin" folder of your JMeter installation and normally contains enough information in order to guess where the problem is
the reason of IE crash potentially can be discovered via Event Viewer
Alternative recording options are in:
Use Firefox browser. It has its own proxy configuration which is not using system-wide proxy settings so it might be more suitable for recording applications which require Internet access
Use JMeter Chrome Extension. In this way you won't have to worry about proxies, SSL certificates, etc.
I have a server running on debian. It runs a scraper using ruby and watir which loads up in a headless fashion. I notice that a site can read the HTTP header my browser passes. How can I hide the HTTP info, or give false info, so a site cannot see my computer operating system?
I figured out a solution. I used x11 forwarding to access chrome from my local computer which has a user interface. It is possible to change the User Agent via dev tools -> network conditions, but this does NOT persist on new sessions. So I installed the first result on google for "plugin change chrome user-agent" and this does the trick.
I've been handed a Genexus KB to make an SD app for it. But each time i want to try it i get a "an error occurred in the application server (Not found)" each time i've ran it in a real device (connected in the internal network thorugh) or in an Android Emulator (Andy).
I've setted the KB to point to a local DB stored in my computer and i've tried different ways to try it and it keeps with no luck.
What else should I do?
PS: when i run the web version of it, there's no problem.
Altight people, first of all thanks for the help you gave me!
Secondly #fpanizza that link you gave me was very useful, I could use CatLog with android emulator Andy (after installing Andy Rootkit) and I found out that my app wasn't reaching REST services in the server which leads me to #Franklin, who was right to let me know that it had to do with REST services and I've found out later that i didn't had installed HTTP Activation at one of the WCF Services at the .Net Framework 4.5 Advanced Services, which allowed to reach REST services, and now it worked.
You can try setting the server URL with the IP of your server.
Is probable that the local host is trying to access itself, the android device.
Service URL property: http://wiki.genexus.com/commwiki/servlet/hwikibypageid?21146
Update
I would do what fpanizza suggests on the comment.
Another troubleshooting idea that may bring some light into problem would be to try to access the rest services from a web navigator on the emulator. The idea would be to validate that the emulator/device can "see" the server. Testing outside the app will help understand if the problem is in the app or the server or the connection device - server.
Thank you #Juan.

I have a Windows service written using Topshelf. I'm trying to configure it to run using a Windows account with restricted privileges rather than using LocalSystem. That's also necessary as I'd like to connect to a database using integrated authentication.
The service works when run as LocalSystem (albeit with a database connection string containing credentials) and running the console application as my limited account (using runas) also works.
However, when I try to start the service the service control manager times out waiting for a response:
The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.
I also get the following in the Application Popup event log:
Application Error : The exception unknown software exception (0xc06d007e) occurred in the application at location 0x77e4bef7.
The first thing that the application does is writes to a log file but it doesn't reach that when I start the service. The logging works if I run via the console.
Any suggestions what I might be missing or what I might try next?
This problem seems to be related to the server (a domain controller) rather than TopShelf. A service built with the .NET service component also exhibits the same behaviour.
The service runs successfully on a different machine (in the same domain).
Unfortunately this doesn't help diagnose the problem but gives me an acceptable workaround.
Check the MSDN article Debugging windows services which describes how you debug windows services.
I've just started seeing this on a few of my services written in .net 2.0. They'll start fine when the server boots, but if I were to restart them throughout the day, they would not start, and give this error message.
They currently ran under a domain account which has admin rights on the box, but for kicks, I switched it to Local System, and the service started normally. I stopped it, changed it back to the domain account (reentering the password), and it started normally again as expected.
Don't know if this counts as a 'fix' so much, but that's what worked for me.
