Jobqueue stays empty

[Vandrix]

Hello All,

I've got some problems with configuring Webpagetest private instance version 2.16.

WPT is running on dedicted Linux Ubuntu (14.04) machine with FFMPEG compiled.
/install page says everything is okay.

Agent (WPT driver) is running on separate Windows 2012 standard server with AviSynth and DUMMYNET ipfw driver installed.

/getLocations.php and /install says Agent is connected.

I'm also seeing WPTdriver polling the server in Apache logs like this:

GET /work/getwork.php?shards=1&reboot=1&location=Local-WPTDriver&software=wpt&version=2.16.0.197&ver=197&pc=removed&dns=etc... HTTP/1.1" 200 0 "-" "WebPagetest Driver"

Every time I submit a test, some files are generated in /tmp folder:

- 4aa3cd379a49804e3fb99ee6825e0972ed440eea.queue.gz
last-test-Local-WPTDriver-WPTAGENT-IP.test
- Local-WPTDriver.tests
Local-WPTDriver.tm
- wpt_cron.dat

There are also folders created according to Location name in /work/jobs, but directory stays empty.

Error message on WPT after submitting a test:

The testing completed but failed.
Failed to launch the browser

It looks like for some reason the jobqueue is not getting filled, (/work/jobs), so agent doesn't find any jobs to process.

It's hard to debug, I can't find any specific errors that point in the right direction. Tried debug=1 , strace, Xdebug etc.
I've also tried different locations.ini files (did only some location name changes) I found on the Net but gave same results.

Please help! Thnx!

.Ini files below:

wptdriver.ini:

Code:

[WebPagetest]
url=http://wptservername/
location=Local-WPTDriver
browser=chrome
Time Limit=120
key=test123
;Automatically install and update support software (Flash, Silverlight, etc)
;software=http://www.webpagetest.org/installers/software.dat

[IE]
exe="C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe"

locatins.ini:

Code:

1=Local
default=Local

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

[Local]
2=Local-WPTDriver
label=Local

;
; 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)
;

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

[Local-WPTDriver]
browser=chrome
label="Local"

The browser path in wptdriver.ini will need to change for Chrome and Firefox on 64 bit windows e.g.

Code:

exe="C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"
exe="C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
