New issue 5650 by dengke_...@163.com: Unexpected error launching Internet
Explorer. IELaunchURL() returned 80070490
http://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=5650

The problem is when I execute a C# code to exec IE with IEDriverServer.exe,
it doesn"t work.
i have following lines code for ie driver open

InternetExplorerDriverService ieservice =
InternetExplorerDriverService.CreateDefaultService();
ieservice.LoggingLevel =
InternetExplorerDriverLogLevel.Trace;

string path =
typeof(Setting).Assembly.GetModules()[0].FullyQualifiedName;
string directory = Path.GetDirectoryName(path);
ieservice.LogFile =
Path.Combine(directory, "IEDriver.log");

var options = new InternetExplorerOptions();

options.IntroduceInstabilityByIgnoringProtectedModeSettings = true;
webDriver = new InternetExplorerDriver(ieservice, options,
TimeSpan.FromMinutes(5));

Selenium version: 2.28
OS: Windows7
Browser: Internet Explorer
Browser version: 8

Hi,

I got a bug when i update the version of selenium to 2.32 .I used "try
catch" block to solve this problem , it will reopen webdriver when
exception occurs .But i think it is not the solution to this bug ,so i
wonder anyone can help me ?

Hi!

As i unerstand 80070490 means usually that some file is corrupted.

Could you redownload iedriverserver, run chkdisk or something similar to
check disk, run Windows restore?

Also does IE run/work correctly when you run it manualy?

It runs well when i run it manually .
Exception occers when IEDriver initialize ,i use try catch block to
re-initialize it till IE runs normally . I wonder the transaction whether
lead to explore exception or not(no enough memory to open IE)
If my analysis is right ,how can i do to slove the explore exception

I am seeing this intermittently running IEDriverServer 2.35.3 and
selenium-webdriver 2.35 (ruby). Have not been able to reproduce manually.
The only solution I have found is to restart Windows 7. Just restarting
the browser or webdriver doesn't work for me.
Using ruby 1.8.7, and IE 8.
