Issue
Executing a GET action results in that action being called a second time. The first call shows cookie information. The second does not show cookie information.
What we've tried:
Occurs for GET requests but not POST requests
Occurs without a view (NOT a javascript issue)
Browser does not show two requests. This occurs server-side.
Does not occur in Firefox Privacy Mode
Does not occur on localhost. Only in production.
Occurs with HTTPS off
Fork of the solution does not exhibit this behavior (makes middleware unlikely cause)
Best guesses:
.NET 5 (deprecated) or dependencies (a bad developer blames his tools)
IIS Settings
Session
Code example:
Controller
// no other filters
[HttpGet]
public IActionResult DupeRequestTest()
{
// database insert with Dapper
var sql = #"INSERT INTO TrackingTable
(CookieJson, CreateDate)
VALUES(#CookieJson, GETDATE());";
using var con = new SqlConnection(_connectionString);
con.Open();
con.Execute(sql, new
{
CookieJson=JsonConvert.SerializeObject(Request.Cookies),
});
// returning a status code so no View, javascript, or other requests
return StatusCode(200);
}
Database results:
CookieJson
CreateDate
[{"Key":"SessionId","Value":"ac6f292c-1ca1-5179-9123-78a04d382dea"}]

Thank you. Any help, such as next testing steps, would be appreciated - short of building a new app.
I'm sure the answer is either very stupid or very hidden.
I am fairly new with using Selenium in my Ruby script. Basically my script will make a get request to some url and log in. However my script is failing to send the email and log in automatically due to the Google Chrome pop up about insecure content blocked since one of the images on the page is using http and not https.
I was able to run the script successfully months ago however just recently when trying again, it is unable to proceed with logging in so I dont know why it stopped working all of a sudden.
The error that I see in terminal is this. In irb, I can go through each line of code successfully including using Selenium's "send_keys" and "click" to automatically sign in.

web_app.rb:54:in `': Console Errors Found! (Exception)
I tried searching for some solution but have been unsuccessful. There has been some variations of responses to similar problem but not too much luck with getting it to work.
Any feedback on how to fix would be appreciated.
start Chrome manualy and disable the warning - https://www.thewindowsclub.com/disable-insecure-content-warning-chrome
and use the set browser profile, there is my setup:
#BeforeClass
public static void setUpClass() {
System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "C:\\Users\\pburgr\\Desktop\\chromedriver\\chromedriver.exe");
ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("user-data-dir=C:\\Users\\pburgr\\AppData\\Local\\Google\\Chrome\\User Data");
driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
driver.manage().window().maximize();}
Is it possible to disable cache for the Webview control for a Windows Phone 8.1 runtime universal app? My App seems to be remembering the information it received the first time. My app logs me into a service and when I go back to rerun app in the emulator (without completing shutting down the emulator) it logs me in automatically rather than giving me the prompt. This behavior is in the NavigationCompleted handler if that helps explain a bit more on where I am hitting this issue.
If I were to shut off the emulator completely and then restart it then I am prompted for the login name and password again. I have gotten over this cache issue, when I was using the HttpClient in other part of my app, by sending the no-cache in the header as:
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Add("Cache-Control", "no-cache");
Can I do something similar for the webview control?
Thank You!
here is the code which I used to clear the cookies which resolved my issue:
Windows.Web.Http.Filters.HttpBaseProtocolFilter myFilter = new Windows.Web.Http.Filters.HttpBaseProtocolFilter();
var cookieManager = myFilter.CookieManager;
HttpCookieCollection myCookieJar = cookieManager.GetCookies(new Uri("target URI for WebView"));
foreach (HttpCookie cookie in myCookieJar)
{
cookieManager.DeleteCookie(cookie);
}
There is no way to do it programmatically.
But for the test purposes for Windows application you can do it manually - http://blogs.msdn.com/b/wsdevsol/archive/2012/10/18/nine-things-you-need-to-know-about-webview.aspx#AN7.
We're trying to configure MiniProfiler with an ASP.NET WebForms app that runs in a classic mode app pool (cannot change it to integrated). We couldn't get the handlers to work so loading the resources failed.
To solve this we included the .js, .css, .tmpl, and .html from https://github.com/SamSaffron/MiniProfiler/tree/master/StackExchange.Profiling/UI After doing that these resources get loaded, but we still don't see anything.
The initialization script is rendered in the final html, but the ... block never gets generated. I'm assuming because the script never runs. We tried loading jQuery v1.7.1 and a newer version; neither worked.
There are no 404s or anything in the console (Chrome or FireFox). Any ideas? Thanks.
Are you having the issue running the profiler in IIS on your local machine or on a server?
The quick code sample on the miniprofiler.com site suggests wrapping the MiniProfile.Start() call in a Request.IsLocal condition (code below), this would prevent the profiler from being rendered on the server (unless you were viewing the page from the server itself). Try removing the Request.IsLocal code and see if that helps.
protected void Application_BeginRequest()
{
if (Request.IsLocal)
{
MiniProfiler.Start();
}
}
I am running several tests with WebDriver and Firefox.
I'm running into a problem with the following command:
WebDriver.get(www.google.com);
With this command, WebDriver blocks till the onload event is fired. While this can normally takes seconds, it can take hours on websites which never finish loading.
What I'd like to do is stop loading the page after a certain timeout, somehow simulating Firefox's stop button.
I first tried execute the following JS code every time that I tried loading a page:
var loadTimeout=setTimeout(\"window.stop();\", 10000);
Unfortunately this doesn't work, probably because :
Because of the order in which scripts are loaded, the stop() method cannot stop the document in which it is contained from loading 1
UPDATE 1: I tried to use SquidProxy in order to add connect and request timeouts, but the problem persisted.
One weird thing that I found today is that one web site that never stopped loading on my machine (FF3.6 - 4.0 and Mac Os 10.6.7) loaded normally on other browsers and/or computers.
UPDATE 2: The problem apparently can be solved by telling Firefox not to load images. hopefully, everything will work after that...
I wish WebDriver had a better Chrome driver in order to use it. Firefox is disappointing me every day!
UPDATE 3: Selenium 2.9 added a new feature to handle cases where the driver appears to hang. This can be used with FirefoxProfile as follows:
FirefoxProfile firefoxProfile = new ProfilesIni().getProfile("web");
firefoxProfile.setPreference("webdriver.load.strategy", "fast");
I'll post whether this works after I try it.
UPDATE 4: at the end none of the above methods worked. I end up "killing" the threads that are taking to long to finish. I am planing to try Ghostdriver which is a Remote WebDriver that uses PhantomJS as back-end. PhantomJS is a headless WebKit scriptable, so i expect not to have the problems of a real browser such as firefox. For people that are not obligate to use firefox(crawling purposes) i will update with the results
UPDATE 5: Time for an update. Using for 5 months the ghostdriver 1.1 instead FirefoxDriver i can say that i am really happy with his performance and stability. I got some cases where we have not the appropriate behaviour but looks like in general ghostdriver is stable enough. So if you need, like me, a browser for crawling/web scraping purposes i recomend you use ghostdriver instead firefox and xvfb which will give you several headaches...
I was able to get around this doing a few things.
First, set a timeout for the webdriver. E.g.,
WebDriver wd;
... initialize wd ...
wd.manage().timeouts().pageLoadTimeout(5000, TimeUnit.MILLISECONDS);
Second, when doing your get, wrap it around a TimeoutException. (I added a UnhandledAlertException catch there just for good measure.) E.g.,
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
try {
wd.get(url);
break;
} catch (org.openqa.selenium.TimeoutException te) {
((JavascriptExecutor)wd).executeScript("window.stop();");
} catch (UnhandledAlertException uae) {
Alert alert = wd.switchTo().alert();
alert.accept();
}
}
This basically tries to load the page, but if it times out, it forces the page to stop loading via javascript, then tries to get the page again. It might not help in your case, but it definitely helped in mine, particularly when doing a webdriver's getCurrentUrl() command, which can also take too long, have an alert, and require the page to stop loading before you get the url.
I've run into the same problem, and there's no general solution it seems. There is, however, a bug about it in their bug tracking system which you could 'star' to vote for it.
http://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=687
One of the comments on that bug has a workaround which may work for you - Basically, it creates a separate thread which waits for the required time, and then tries to simulate pressing escape in the browser, but that requires the browser window to be frontmost, which may be a problem.
http://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=687#c4
My solution is to use this class:
WebDriverBackedSelenium;
//When creating a new browser:
WebDriver driver = _initBrowser(); //Just returns firefox WebDriver
WebDriverBackedSelenium backedSelenuium =
new WebDriverBackedSelenium(driver,"about:blank");
//This code has to be put where a TimeOut is detected
//I use ExecutorService and Future<?> Object
void onTimeOut()
{
backedSelenuium.runScript("window.stop();");
}
It was a really tedious issue to solve. However, I am wondering why people are complicating it. I just did the following and the problem got resolved (perhaps got supported recently):
driver= webdriver.Firefox()
driver.set_page_load_timeout(5)
driver.get('somewebpage')
It worked for me using Firefox driver (and Chrome driver as well).
One weird thing that i found today is that one web site that never stop loading on my machine (FF3.6 - 4.0 and Mac Os 10.6.7), is stop loading NORMALy in Chrome in my machine and also in another Mac Os and Windows machines of some colleague of mine!
I think the problem is closely related to Firefox bugs. See this blog post for details. Maybe upgrade of FireFox to the latest version will solve your problem. Anyway I wish to see Selenium update that simulates the "stop" button...
Basically I set the browser timeout lower than my selenium hub, and then catch the error. And then stop the browser from loading, then continue the test.
webdriver.manage().timeouts().pageLoadTimeout(55000);
function handleError(err){
console.log(err.stack);
};
return webdriver.get(url).then(null,handleError).then(function () {
return webdriver.executeScript("return window.stop()");
});
Well , the following concept worked with me on Chrome , try the same:
1) Navigate to "about:blank"
2) get element "body"
3) on the elemënt , just Send Keys Ësc
Just in case someone else might be stuck with the same forever loading annoyance, you can use simple add-ons such as Killspinners for Firefox to do the job effortlessly.
Edit : This solution doesn't work if javascript is the problem. Then you could go for a Greasemonkey script such as :
// ==UserScript==
// #name auto kill
// #namespace default
// #description auto kill
// #include *
// #version 1
// #grant none
// ==/UserScript==
function sleep1() {
window.stop();
setTimeout(sleep1, 1500);
}
setTimeout(sleep1, 5000);
