Re: SocketException: An address incompatible with the requested protocol was used [::1]:7055

Does anyone have a clue about my problem described in this thread? Rui seems to be facing this problem too – so it is not just me.

Thank you,

Guys, I just moved this small test project (that works) into my bigger solution (that does not work). I set it as the startup project, and ran the solution. Now, I get the SocketException. My new project does not depend on the other solution projects in anyway and has only two lines of code. It worked perfectly independently – but as a project in my solution it does not work.

 

I am using selenium-dotnet-2.30.0. Sorry I did not mention this before.

 

Thank you,

This is really strange. I made a small test project with the following code in the Main Method and I do not get this exception:

 

IWebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

            driver.Navigate().GoToUrl(SELLER_HOME);

 

 

I don’t think I am doing anything differently – why am I getting this exception. I’d be grateful if anyone can shed light on this.

 

Thank you,

Hi,

 

            I am attempting to use Selenium and it is giving me the following error in C#:

 

Code:

 

IWebDriver Driver = new FirefoxDriver();

 

Exception:

 

SocketException

An address incompatible with the requested protocol was used [::1]:7055

 

I would appreciate any help to fix this problem. I am using selenium-dotnet-2.30.0 on Windows 7 64 bit. This exception appears in Debug Mode.

 

According to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929852 I attempted to disable IPv6 by setting DisabledComponents to 0x20 and 0xffffffff – both do not work. Also I have disabled IPv6 on all my network interfaces. It seems to be that you cannot disable the IPv6 loopback interface – hence my problem.

 

Thanks to anyone who has an idea in this matter.

I think my problem might be related to issue discussed here: https://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=4629 I am curious if someone can tell me if patch at the end of this issue has been incorporated into selenium-dotnet-2.30.0.

 

Thank you,
