Waiting at the front of the queue and not progressing

Hi

I have just set this up for the first time and having some problems.

I am running a private instance on ubuntu with a Windows7 client running the agent.

The agent requests are getting through I think as my access.log looks like this:

10.62.134.98 - - [19/Apr/2012:15:11:18 +0100] "GET /work/getwork.php?location=Trevor_Windows7&key=&pc=TSIMPSON-PC&ver=312&freedisk=14.478 HTTP/1.1" 200 378 "-" "urlBlast"

locations.ini
[locations]
1=Test_loc
2=Trevor_Win7
3=Trevor_Windows7
default=Test_loc

;
; These are the top-level locations that are listed in the location dropdown
; Each one points to one or more browser configurations
;

[Test_loc]
1=IE
2=Test
label=Test Location


[Trevor_Win7]
1=IE
2=Test
label="Trevors Win7 Machine"

[Trevor_Windows7]
1=IE
2=Test
label="Trevors Windows 7"

;
; Tese are the browser-specific configurations that match the configurations
; defined in the top-level locations. Each one of these MUST match the location
; name configured on the test agent (urlblast.ini or wptdriver.ini)
;

[IE]
browser=IE 9
latency=0
label="Test Location - IE 9"
;browserExe=pagetest.exe
;key=TestKey123

[Trevor_Windows7]
browser=IE 9
latency=0
label="Trevors Windows 7 - IE 9"
;key=TSIMPSON

;
; For a wptdriver configuration (chrome, firefox), the browser labels here
; MUST match the labels used in wptdriver.ini
;

[Test]
browser=Chrome,Firefox
label="Test Location"

[Firefox]

Any help would be gratefully received!

Looks like your locations.ini needs a little TLC. If you are just running a single test location/browser combo then you want it to look like this:

[locations]
1=Test_Group
default=Test_Group

[Test_Group]
1=Trevor_Windows7
label="My Office or some other logical grouping"

[Trevor_Windows7]
browser=IE 9
latency=0
label="Trevors Windows 7 - IE 9"

Hopefully that makes sense - I need to create a drawing for the docs that explains the structure better but there are basically 2 levels of groupings. The [locations] section lists all of the physical locations/groupings and nothing in that list should ever end up in an agent config.

Each grouping then has a list of the "locations" which are really the agent configurations (browser mostly) in that logical grouping. These are the ID's that show up in the agent config.
