TYPE_014 ERROR CODE

Hi All,  

I’m attempting to start playing with automation anywhere, so I’m using the community edition.  I imported a couple of the free bots so I can run/evaluate them (shopping assistant, car search), however I’m having trouble running them.  The shopping assistant doesn’t create a log file as far as I can tell, but displays message boxes saying how each of the website (CVS, Walmart) searches encountered a problem.  The car search runs, but gives me the following in the log file :

Plug-in action failed. Make sure that your browser plug-in is properly installed and enabled. For more help with this issue go to A-People, the Automation Anywhere community forum. Error code:TYPE_014

I do have the plugin installed/enabled.  There is a post on this community (‘Facing TYPE_014 ERROR CODE’) that includes a link to a resolution, but I can’t access it because I’m not yet a customer :(

If anyone could offer some guidance on the above I’d really appreciate it as I’m trying to demo Automation Anywhere to the powers that be in hopes that they will OK a purchase of it.  Thanks in advance for any assistance provided.

Hi Ramesh,

Thanks for the reply.  I believe I do have the chrome ‘Automation 360’ extension installed enabled:

@JustinK i suspect the objects are unable to find due to the screen resolution of your system.. please check that one as well.

OK thank you because unfortunately after following the link you sent, the bot still fails at the first ‘Capture’ step (which isn’t using the ‘GetProperty’ method referenced with the error 14) - below.   Will try changing screen resolution

Hi Ramesh,

Thanks for your suggestions, but unfortunately I’m still having the same problem :(.  I guess I might ask - are you able to import this bot into community edition and run without issue? If there is anything else you can think of, please let me know as I would have really liked to demo this to some folks.  Thanks again.

Will just throw this out there as well - when attempting to ‘record’ manually, I received the below, so I guess something isn’t right with my plug in:

Hi Ramesh,

I’ve tried the reinstall quite a few times (and have tried again), but unfortunately still having the same issue.  When attempting to run the ‘carbuyerbotdemo’ bot that I downloaded from the AA site, the process hangs at 37% (after it launches the car guru site in chrome):

Line 51 of 139

When the bot finishes, end up with the below log file:

@JustinK ,

Kindly verify if you dont have another Chrome installation.If so, try uninstall both and install  it under Program files.
