Errors in PageTest 2.0.0.217

Support
1

I’m trying to use the plugin version of PageTest on a fresh install of windows XP running IE7. I have disabled all other plugins. When I open the pagestats window and open a new page (google.com or facebook.com), I don’t see a waterfall, and I see this error in the Optimization report.

Any ideas?

Results for ‘/home.php’:

Also, is it possible to check out the latest version of the source from SVN? Where is the repository?

The SVN repository is here: http://code.webpagetest.org/svn/pagetest

You need Visual Studio 2008 with the latest service pack to build it - if you build the debug configuration it will spew a bunch of trace information that you can capture with DebugView (DebugView - Windows Sysinternals | Microsoft Docs). If you have any problems let me know and I can work with you on it. If you want me to look over a trace file just shoot it to me at pmeenan@webpagetest.org

One thing to try might be to set about:blank to your home page and then open Pagetest immediately after launching the browser but before navigating to any pages. I think there’s a case where if you do some browsing before opening it you might not get the results (has to do with some just-in-time hooking changes I made recently). This may not be the problem you are seeing but it’s worth being aware of.

Thanks for the quick reply. Setting my homepage to about blank solved the problem!

Thanks. It was one of those things that after I implemented I started to get a nagging feeling that it might cause some grief in some cases so I’ll probably go and undo the JIT hooking for the next release.
