browser=chrome in wptdriver.ini

The only time that happens is if the locations.ini only has one browser listed. If you have multiple browsers that are comma separated then the browser will always be specified and it won't be used.

I have been asked to set up a private instance of WPT on a Windows XP VM. I have installed all the third party tools and the /install page shows everything green except for the agent section at the bottom of that page.

No test agents are configured to render video

xp : xp
xp-Chrome : Chrome - No Agents Connected
xp-Firefox : Firefox - No Agents Connected
laptop : laptop
laptop-Chrome : Chrome - No Agents Connected
laptop-Firefox : Firefox - No Agents Connected
Public_Dulles : WebPagetest.org - Dulles, VA
WPT_Dulles_IE8 : WebPagetest.org Dulles, VA - IE8 - No Agents Connected
Appurify : Appurify Mobile Testing
Appurify_Mobile : Appurify Mobile - No Agents Connected


It appears that it is possible to set up the agents and server on this one VM. I have not been able to get the locations.ini and wptdriver.ini settings correct.

What am I doing incorrectly? And where how does the install page know where to look for the wptdriver.ini file?

My locations.ini is:
[locations]
1=xp
2=laptop
3=Public_Dulles
4=Appurify
default=xp

;
; These are the top-level locations that are listed in the location

dropdown
; Each one points to one or more browser configurations
;

[xp]
1=xp-Chrome
2=xp-Firefox
label=xp

[xp-Chrome]
browser=Chrome
latency=0
key=webpagetest
label="Chrome"


[xp-Firefox]
browser=Firefox
latency=0
key=webpagetest
label="Firefox"

[laptop]
1=laptop-Chrome
2=laptop-Firefox
label=laptop

[laptop-Chrome]
browser=Chrome
latency=0
key=webpagetest
label="Chrome"


[laptop-Firefox]
browser=Firefox
latency=0
key=webpagetest
label="Firefox"

[Public_Dulles]
1=WPT_Dulles_IE8
label="WebPagetest.org - Dulles, VA"
group=Public

;
; These 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 8
latency=0
label="Test Location - IE 8"
;browserExe=pagetest.exe
key=webpagetest

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

[WebPagetest]
browser=Chrome,Firefox,Safari,IE
label="Chrome"

;
; This is an example of a "remote" configuration where tests can be proxied

to a remote
; webpagetest instance. The test will be run by the remote server but the

results
; will be downloaded to the local server and deleted from the remote agent
;
; Each location that you want to use from the remote server needs to be

configured
; individually on the local configuration (location names do not need to

match)
;
; To use the public webpagetest.org instance you will need an API key

[WPT_Dulles_IE8]
browser=IE 8

;relayKey=<your API key>

; Appurify offers mobile device testing as a service.
