code showing error Relay: Invalid API Key

WebPageTest Private Instances

hi,

i am sending my different datas used as follows,

locations.ini:

[locations]
1=Test_loc
2=Public_Dulles
default=Test_loc

;
; These are the top-level locations that are listed in the location dropdown
; Each one points to one or more browser configurations
;

[Test_loc]
1=IE
2=Test
label=Test Location

[Public_Dulles]
1=WPT_Dulles_IE8
label=“WebPagetest.org - Dulles, VA”

;
; Tese are the browser-specific configurations that match the configurations
; defined in the top-level locations. Each one of these MUST match the location
; name configured on the test agent (urlblast.ini or wptdriver.ini)
;

[IE]
browser=IE 8
latency=0
label=“Test Location - IE 8”
;browserExe=pagetest.exe
;browserExe=“C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe”
key=TestKey123

;
; For a wptdriver configuration (chrome, firefox), the browser labels here
; MUST match the labels used in wptdriver.ini
;

[Test]
browser=Chrome,Firefox
label=“Test Location”

;
; This is an exaple of a “remote” configuration where tests can be proxied to a remote
; webpagetest instance. The test will be run by the remote server but the results
; will be downloaded to the local server and deleted from the remote agent
;
; Each location that you want to use from the remote server needs to be configured
; individually on the local configuration (location names do not need to match)
;
; To use the public webpagetest.org instance you will need an API key
;

Delete the keys.ini in your settings folder. You usually don’t need it for a private instance.

hi patrick,
thanks for the reply…and it worked for an instance…i mean i am unable run it on other browsers like firefox and chrome installed on the same machine and my doubt is that i also want to run it different locations like Dulles,VA etc. for that i need there API keys …pls forward me the API keys for different locations of world(like 4 to 5 places) and mention the necessary changes to be made,so that i can test my sample application from various locations using different browsers…and thank you once again…

To use the public instance you will need keys - email me at pmeenan@webpagetest.org and I can provide one. The same key works for all locations but you will be limited in the number of tests that you can submit to it per day.

Thanks,

-Pat

Hi Patrick,

As I try to test instances from a public location, I’m unable to and receive the following error messages - Relay: Invalid API Key. Would you be kind to provide me with API key?

Thank you,

Kevin

Yes, if you email me like I mentioned :slight_smile:

How/Where do you obtain the relayKey for:

[WPT_Dulles_IE8]
browser=IE 8
label=“WebPagetest.org Dulles, VA - IE8”
relayServer=“http://www.webpagetest.org/”
relayKey=
;relayKey=
;relayKey=
relayLocation=Dulles_IE8
