Doesn't this tell you what needs to be done ?

INFO: ---------------***LAUNCHING INTERNET EXPLORE***-----------
java.lang.IllegalStateException: The path to the driver executable must be set by the webdriver.ie.driver system property; for more information, see http://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/InternetExplorerDriver.

Have you gone through that wiki link for IE ?

Thanks & Regards

[Jagatheswaran Selvakumar]

yes ,I download iedriver and set path

[Krishnan Mahadevan]

Can you please elaborate more here as to what do you mean by you set the path ? Did you use System.setProperty() or did you update your PATH variable ?

What do you see when you open up a command prompt and type : echo %PATH% ?

Where is your IEDriverServer.exe downloaded in your local file system ?

Thanks & Regards
Krishnan Mahadevan

[Jagatheswaran Selvakumar]

I set path in environment variable and in cmd i type echo %PATH%
 I GOT THIS
C:\Documents and Settings\jagatheswaran_s\Desktop\IE-2.0\IEDriverServer.exe

[Krishnan Mahadevan]

We seem to be going around in circles here. 

So lets do this one step at a time.

1. How did you start your Grid ?

2. How did you start your node ?

3. Is your Grid and Node running on the same machine or are they running on different machines ?

4. Is the machine from where your test is running the same as the machine in (3) or are all these different ?

If your node is running on a DIFFERENT machine than the machine from wherein your code is running, then you need to add the IEDriverServer binary's path in your Node machine's PATH.

I am using this code to launch IE .check this
private WebDriver driver;
URL server = new URL("http://localhost:4444/wd/hub/");
         selectedBrowser.equalsIgnoreCase("iexplore")) {

            log.info("---------------***LAUNCHING INTERNET EXPLORE***-----------");
            driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();
            capabilities = new DesiredCapabilities();

            capabilities.setJavascriptEnabled(true);
            capabilities.setBrowserName("iexplore");
       
        if (selectedPlatform.equalsIgnoreCase("WINDOWS")) {
            capabilities.setCapability(CapabilityType.PLATFORM,
                    Platform.WINDOWS);
           
        }
        driver = new RemoteWebDriver(server, capabilities);
        driver.get(applicationURL + applicationContext);

reply krish

[Krishnan Mahadevan]

Jagatheeswarn,

Trying to be pushy on a forum or demanding an answer is NOT going to help you in any way. I am merely here trying to help. But it looks like you are not happy with whatever I have given to you as suggestions.

So I would merely step aside and let someone else help you from here !

Thanks & Regards
