Error message : to-be-sent trailing metadata size exceeds peer limit

serici · 20 October 2020 16:55

Hy there,

i’m starting to rewrite my selenium testing code to rfBrowser.

As far as I can tell it’s better and meets my needs in terms of

cross browser testing
ease of use
ease of installation

but some error messages are cryptic to me.

i’m using version 1.6 with robot framework 3.2.2
I’m testing a HUGE html page made with Primefaces (some network transfer are 2.2Mb) and i have, on certain version of my server this error message

to-be-sent trailing metadata size exceeds peer limit

and only with Chromium driver (firefox driver is ok)

it appears on click instruction

in a general manner : how can i investigate ?
in a particular point of view : what’s the matter here ?

thx for your help

aaltat · 21 October 2020 12:37

Interesting would it possible to see corresponding error from the logs?

serici · 21 October 2020 13:59

Hi @aaltat

sure, how can i send it…
i assume you want to see playwright-log.txt

do I copy paste it here in preformatted text ?

is there a pastebin or something like that ?

as far as i undestand. thereis a loop upon click instruction

waiting for selector "css=.BWTabScreen:nth-of-type(1)>a"
  selector resolved to visible <a tabindex="-1" href="#tabscontent:tabView:tabview…>Recherche Fournisseur</a>
attempting click action
  waiting for element to be visible, enabled and not moving
  element is visible, enabled and does not move
  scrolling into view if needed
  done scrolling
  checking that element receives pointer events at (67.89,418.78)
  <div id="tabscontent:tabView:j_idt3691" class="ui-out…></div> from <div id="tabscontent:tabView:j_idt3689" class="ui-out…>…</div> subtree intercepts pointer events

then rfbrowser retries 22 times

retrying click action, attempt #21

i then have a bunch of rough words

For starters coping here is good. Have read it from a bigger screen and let’s see what it reveals.

what’s annoying me is that it appears only on certain versions, only in chromium, only with rfbrowser (not with selenium)

aaltat · 29 October 2020 21:09

We have an idea what causes this, but we have not been able to fix it. But it is on our scope.

serici · 30 October 2020 08:37

Thx for your insterest and work, tell me if i can help !

aaltat · 30 October 2020 10:12

There was indication that this should be resolved in 2.0 release. Would it possible to try it out?

serici · 30 October 2020 11:24

already tested…
can give you the log if you want

aaltat · 30 October 2020 16:29

Could you raise a new issue in the Browser library issue tracker. With details how to reproduce the issue.

serici · 30 October 2020 17:54

Hi,
I can raise a new issue of course. But i don’t know how to reproduce … i will try a diff between a working html page and a bug trigger one. but html file is 2.6mb ! not sure to find my way

apple-blossom · 20 November 2020 12:51

I have the same error, also testing quite big html page. Have you raised the issue? can’t find it

serici · 20 November 2020 14:19

nope, i didn’t create an issue on bug tracker

i could’nt figure out how to make a repro case …

apple-blossom · 23 November 2020 17:29

Found similar issue in their github https://github.com/MarketSquare/robotframework-browser/issues/403
This seems to be an error message when an element was not found

aaltat · 24 November 2020 10:36

The trailing metadata problem should be now fixed in latest Browser library release (2.2.0). Now library should report the original problem correctly.

serici · 24 November 2020 10:59

gonna try it this afternoon !!!

serici · 24 November 2020 18:18
