Browser not closing

I know you have probably answered this in many ways, but it is the first time I have come across the problem and I cannot find a solution that works for me in the forums. I don't recall making any changes to configuration, but suddenly, the browser no longer closes at the end of a script. This happens if I am running a single script OR a suite. No, error, it just never closes. I've gone as far as to 'try' to put the commands at the end of my script. The ones I have tried thus far:

close();
_close();
_closeWindow();
browser.close();
stop();
_stop();

So far, nothing is working. The browser never closes.

Can anyone please help?

    Hi TSheeley,

    Once you run the suite file, the browser is closed automatically. If you are running a single script from the Controller then the browser is not closed.

    Could you please post the <browserTypes> contents by clicking on the Configure on the dashboard.

    Also, have a look at : http://sahi.co.in/forums/viewtopic.php?id=2272

    I'm running a suite from the command line. I don't remember making any changes to the configuration, but now the browser never closes. Here is my browserTypes content:

    <browserTypes>

    <browserType>

    <name>firefox</name>

    <displayName>Firefox</displayName>

    <icon>firefox.png</icon>

    <path>/usr/bin/firefox</path>

    <options>-profile "$userDir/browser/ff/profiles/sahi$threadNo" -no-remote</options>

    <processName>firefox.sh</processName>

    <capacity>5</capacity>

    </browserType>

    </browserTypes>

    Thanks once again

    Hi TSheeley,

    Could you replace

    <processName>firefox.sh</processName>

    with

    <processName>firefox</processName>

    Restart Sahi and check?

    If that does not work, try with <processName>firefox-bin</processName> Restart and check .

    I checked the url you sent "after" I posted my reply. Removing the .sh fixes this perfectly!!! Thanks.

    This still does not explain why the browsers were closing before. I never altered this until you told me to. But it works now, so again, thanks.
