Hi @David Jansen​ ,

 

I am bit confused, the above issue is you are getting error while running the bot at delay step, do you also notice bot launcher is not responding? (i.e Bot is not deployed in your machine)

Hi @David Jansen​ ,

 

Would you be so kind as to include few screenshots of the workflow so that we may be in a better situation to help you out?

Hi @David Jansen​ ,

 

Can you check one line above the Comment or Delay? Also i'd suggest keep try Catch Blocks in the code to capture the exact error in the logfile.

Hi @David Jansen​ ,

 

A screenshot of the workflow would be most appreciated, also there is a chance that the error did not occur at the Delay action.

 

The task window tends to lag a little so I would suggest adding a Log to File Action followed by a Take Screenshot Action into the Catch Action so that we can record the exact line at which the error occurred along with its actual cause(from the logs).

 

Kind Regards,

hi @ChanduMohammad S​ 

 

to straighten things out, so the issue is the bot is stuck at a certain point, which gave an error as in the first picture which is "Bot launcher for user session unresponsive". and for additional info i've tried restarting and the bot was perfectly fine until today, no process was changed.

hi @Ashwin A.K​ 

i cannot screenshot the workflow as the company restricts me from doing so but as i said the process was succesful over and over until today and so i can assure you that there are no issue on the process itself. but based on the error screenshot i gave do you have any idea as to why the bot launcher is unresponsive?

Hi @David Jansen​ ,

 

One of the reason for this error is missing permission on folders.

 

Grant full access to the current user at the following location - 

  • C:\Users\<currentUserProfile>\AppData\Local\AutomationAnywhere\
  • C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData

 

If not , I'd recommend opening a support ticket with AA using below link to identify the exact cause.
