WebPageTest

I've tried to run a test numerous times - tried a couple of different URLS from my site - but each time I get the following issue, "Timed out waiting for the browser to start"

Any idea how I get round this ?

Thanks.

Which test location? That's a new message that was just added yesterday and it sounds like one of the test locations isn't working well with the agent changes.

Sao Paulo, Chicago, Tokio, all three display that error message for me. http://www.webpagetest.org/result/140311...d6b400dd3/

Thanks for the report and sorry about that. Should be fixed now: http://www.webpagetest.org/result/140313...3d8f861bc/

Same for me again... i run about 150 test each day but since couple of days i get around 4 "Timed out waiting for the browser to start" tests per day...

Sample test-ids:

170919_Q2_295c8fe84e74498a44a09af39f943e7d
170919_KB_bd53a58eb94e733cdb40f885dae06230

Is there someone else with same prob?

Looks like 4 of the 40 VMs were running high error rates (90+%, normal is 2-5%). Both of the failed tests were on the VMs with error issues. I just rebooted them and will keep an eye on them to make sure the rates come back down to normal.
