Companion.JS Debugger could not connect to IE instance

Hi,

I am still getting this message even after unchecking 'Disable Script Debugging (Internet Explorer)':

"The Companion.JS Debugger could not connect to IE instance yet. Be sure to have unchecked the "Disable Script Debugging (Internet Explorer)" in the IE options. If yes, do not hesitate to contact us at http://www.debugbar.com/contact.php to report the problem."

I am on Windows xp sp2, IE 6.0.2900.2180

If you have any other ideas I could try I would appreciate it.

Thanks,
Tom

Hi,

Did you install Microsoft Script Debugger ?
If not, please check the Companion.JS install page :

http://www.my-debugbar.com/wiki/CompanionJS/Installing

If yes, if you have Office 2003 installed, this may also affect Companion.JS. You can read here #10 (end of page) some info :

http://www.my-debugbar.com/wiki/Public/Bugs

Hope those will solve the problem.

Re: Companion.JS Debugger could not connect to IE instance

Hi fabrice,

It was the Microsoft Script Debugger... I didn't have it installed.

Also your forum "subscribe to this topic" never notified me of your reply so you may have an issue there.

Lastly,  I too cannot get the console.log to work.  It just does nothing:

In [15]=
    console.log('yo')
Out[15]=

Thanks,
Tom

Hi,

Did you try to use "console.log" from a web page directly ?

You can try this test page :

Hi Fabrice,

Thanks for manually 'subscribing me to the topic' smile

That test page results in 4 errors/0 log.  The errors are around the console.log statements.  From a console I can type console.log w/out error but it does not do anything.

I would be happy to help you investigate this further.  Just let me know of any additional steps you would like me to try.  I would also be willing to install a debug version of your toolbar to capture more info.

Thanks,
Tom

Hi,

Thanks for the proposition ! I will try to send you a custom version that is doing some logs so I can figure out what is happening on your computer.

By the way, I did some correction on the "subscribe" feature. Hope this is working now :-O

Can you be more precise ? what is your OS ? service pack ? IE version ? What's wrong ? Do you have the Companion.JS extension displayed or not ? Do you have errors when trying the console ?

Thanks.

Be sure to have unchecked the "Disable Script Debugging (Internet Explorer)" in the IE options. If yes, do not hesitate to contact us at http://www.debugbar.com/contact.php to report the problem."

Re: Companion.JS Debugger could not connect to IE instance

Can you check what the Companion.JS "About box" is saying ?

Did you install Microsoft Script Debugger ?
