IE6 Test chashes in Windows 7 / DebugBar forums

Satsuki · 2011-04-13 04:24:28

When trying to test a page with the IE6 tab I get this error:

'A tab has chashed for an unknown reason. You can reopen the tab by clicking the "Reopen tab" button'

If I press the "Reopen tab", it doesn't solves anything, the tab chashes again.

Can you help me to find a solution? I really need to test my forms in IE6

Thank you and have a nice day!

OS: Windows 7 Professional
IETester version: 0.4.8
IE Tab: 6
Test case: any url, wwwgoogle.com

I have a similar problem. I'm running Win7 32 bits Professional (I don't think there is any service pack installed) with IE9 installed and my ietester version is 0.4.10

Every time I try to open an IE6 tab, it automatically crashes, IE7/8/9 tabs are working perfectly, but IE6 and 5.5 tabs just wont open.

"A tab has crashed for an unknown reason. You can reopen the tab by clicking the "reopen tab" button".

And if I click it, the tab will just close again and again. Is there anything I can do to solve this?

Hi,

Do you have a proxy defined ? If so try to disable the proxy and see if it's working. IE6 crashes when reading proxy data set by newer IE version.
That might be your problem.

Regards.

x32 Windows 7 SP1 Corporate Edition with installed IE 9.0.8112.16421, IETester v.0.4.10

I've opened two tabs (IE6 and IE7) and when IETester minimized to taskbar the tabs will crash through few minutes. In this tabs was opened link http://pikachoose.com/demo/ (also I was opened other link where used Superfish drop down menu and program also crushed).

I've encountered same problem with you.

I am having the same problem as described at the top of this post. IE 5.5 and IE 6 tabs crash every time on open.

I am running:

OS: Windows 7 Professional 64-bit
IETester version: 0.4.10
IE Tab: 5.5 & 6
Test case: any url, crashes before url is entered

As far as I can tell I have not defined a proxy (would someone be able to tell me where in the settings to look?)

Is there another solution to fix this problem?

I'm having the same problem.

OS: Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit Service Pack 1
IE installed: 8.0.7601.17514
IETester version: 0.4.10
IETester Tab that crashes: 5.5 & 6

Both tabs open fine and point to http://www.my-debugbar.com/ietester/?version=0.4.10 but crash as soon as another URL is entered into the address bar.

I am in desperate need to test something on IE6 today!

I have the same problem as described in the posts above. I do not have any proxy settings configured.

* Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit Service Pack 2
* IE 9.0.8112.16421
* IETester v0.4.10
* IETester tabs: 5.5 & 6

Is there any news about this? IETester is an awesome tool that has rapidly made me dependent on it. I'm a bit lost without my IE6 tab...

This is another thread discussing the same problem:
