That was me reporting before, just used the wrong email address..

I looked at the JavaDoc and tried to use what appears to be the quasi-desirable workaround:

DesiredCapabilities ieCapabilities = DesiredCapabilities.internetExplorer();  ieCapabilities.setCapability(InternetExplorerDriver.INTRODUCE_FLAKINESS_BY_IGNORING_SECURITY_DOMAINS,
true);
WebDriver driver = new InternetExplorerDriver(ieCapabilities);

After doing this, I see an IE window that says it's the base WebDriver window (progress!),
but then immediately after I see a big nasty stacktrace:

#
# A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:

Does the problem you're experiencing happen on the line of code creating the InternetExplorerDriver
(i.e. the line that reads "WebDriver driver = new InternetExplorerDriver(ieCapabilities);"),
or does the crash happen when attempting to execute the next line of code?

It's a sign of flakiness you've asked to introduce :)

Corporate policies are good for workstations and production servers, in a test lab
you'd better have some additional abilities to change computer settings, install additional
software, monitor system logs etc. Try to explain to your boss that you need a special
policy for the test lab.

My bad, I should have included the rest of the stack trace.

Instantiating the driver passes with the override in place.  The crash happens when
I try to actually use it:

My code is calling driver.get to load our home page, and then uses PageFactory to initialize
a WebElement bound to id=search-input.  I'm not seeing IE ever load the homepage though
which would explain the exception.

I'm working on talking to our corporate systems people to see what can be done about
this.  We are given the ability to be local system administrators so that we can install
tools, but this particular setting is beyond what can be changed.  We may end up setting
up an additional group to circumvent the issue.

Talked to the corporate systems folk, and it sounds like my organization may have hit
an impasse on this issue.

My initial thought was that we could set protected mode as enabled for all zones, as
we don't want to have it disabled on individual workstations for external access. 
However, as it turns out we have internal applications that don't work if protected
mode is turned on for internal sites.  We also discussed having test machines separate
from workstations that could be remotely accessed, but there's the logistical complication
of people needing to have their IDE/Maven and such set up in such a way.

Our corporate systems team is going to talk to our security team on the issue and get
back to me.  In the meantime, I'm still curious to figure out what's happening when
flakiness == 1, because not even loading the page is beyond just being flaky.

Hi

I have the same problem also when using Selenium 2.0rc2. I am running it on Windows
7 IE8 and VS2010. In my system I and disable UAC and also protection mode in IE8. But
i still see this issue.

When i revert the dll to Selenium 2.0b3 i do not see this issue. I hope a fix will
for this soon.

also the error comes up when executing IWebDriver driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();

About a year ago, the IE driver was rewritten from the ground up. This rewrite is what
caused the need to manage the Protected Mode settings of IE. A good discussion of why
this requirement for mananging Protected Mode can be found in the Selenium developers
mailing list archive. The specific thread containing this disucssion can be found at
http://groups.google.com/group/selenium-developers/browse_thread/thread/4dd6330f97bd2312/3e904642ac3dac6?q=
.

The only new information from that thread is that we have discovered where in the registry
the Protected Mode settings are stored and can check the settings thereof. Passing
the flag in the Capabilities object merely bypasses the registry check. In short, when
crossing a Protected Mode boundary, the COM object that the IE driver is connected
to becomes orphaned. This is by design in IE from version 7 onward and Microsoft has
made it impossible to be worked around, disabled, or ignored.

If you're truly interested in what the code is doing, look at BrowserFactory.cpp in
the project sources. That's where IE instances are created and attached to.

Reverting to the Selenium 2.0b3 dlls will eliminate the error, because the registry
check was not in place until 2.0rc1. I absolutely do *NOT* recommend disabling UAC.
If you re-enable UAC, and reset Protected Mode for each zone (in IE, Tools > Internet
Options > Security tab, checkbox at the bottom of the dialog labeled "Enable Protected
Mode"), what happens?

After re-enable UAC, and reset Protected Mode for each zone I still get the same error.

Setting it to the same value fixed the issue, but this problem is exceedingly complicated
for my organization.  I needed to have another user account created, as the way our
infrastructure is set up these permissions are bound to the account itself and not
a group.  I had to have another account created because changing my master account
would have locked me out of a litany of important services.

I understand that you are at the behest of what Internet Explorer provides you, but
I have a feeling this is going to cause us some issues.

I understand the issue, and I am sympathetic. I'm open to suggestions how to solve the
problem, and I'm happy to provide guidance into the architecture of the C++ code if
you want to try to refactor that code in such a way as to solve the problem in a different
way. You may be able to work around the problem by clever manipulation of the places
the browser visits so that you never cross a Protected Mode boundary, but I think you're
going to find that exceedingly difficult too.

I have a request in for permission to work on this open source project with my employer,
so I may dig into it to see if I can help in any way.  Based on what you guys have
said so far, it sounds daunting to say the least.  It seems like our site ends up in
mixed mode quite often, so I don't know if I'd be able to set up the tests to avoid
the issue.

By the way, my issue of not finding the element with flakiness = 1 above was due to
my own ignorance, and was not a fault of web driver. :)  Still trying to find a way
to work around the protected mode thing within my organization though.

Hi Ian

How did you get it working. In my org i can change security setting as i like but i
still get the same issue. What are the settings did you do to get selenium to work.
I am getting error even after enabling UAC. 
What did you mean by "Setting it to the same value fixed the issue". It would be greatly
help full what you had done to make it work.

did you create ur script using java & eclipse or C# & VS2010.  

Thanks
Tk

@Tk Either the zone settings are not set correctly, or our check of the registry is
incorrect. You can also add the "ignoreProtectedModeSettings" capability to a DesiredCapabilities
object to bypass the zone setting check. This is not really the appropriate forum for
real-time troubleshooting. I would suggest hopping on the IRC channel. You could also
check the registry yourself to see what the values are that we are checking.

I have the same issue. Protected mode is disabled. 
IE9 + Win 7 + C# + VS 2010

 IWebDriver driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();
 driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("http://google.com");
 driver.Close();

I tried to resolve the error by turning on the Protected mode in IE and still no luck.
I'm using windows 7 and selenium-java 2.16.1 jar with selenium-ie 2.16.1 jar file.
The piece of code when it crashes is 

InternetExplorerDriver driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();

The next piece of line is not getting executed. Please provide an solution for this
or comment if additional details is required.

I get the "Protected Mode must be set to the same value" error randomly. IE9, Win7.
I have all zones set to Protected Mode On. I run my selenium test and it terminates
almost immediately. Change nothing, start the test again, and it runs fine. Start the
test again and the failure occurs.

Looking though the BrowserFactory.cpp code, I note that there's error handling in the
GetZoneProtectedModeSetting if the registry key read fails. Why that might happen I
don't know, but it might be better to report such a failure separately as with the
current behaviour it's very hard to see whether that might be what's wrong.

Also, to me the result of the error handling for GetZoneProtectedModeSetting looks
wrong: it's returning value 3 for when the default mode is on, and 0 for off. But inspecting
the registry seems to indicate the 0 = on and 3 = off.

@43 please file a new issue

Did we get this sorted out ....

Has someone raised a new issue 

@43 You're right. The logic is backward for installations where the value in the registry
doesn't exist. This is, in my experience, a pretty rare case, usually only on brand-new
virgin installations of Windows. Nevertheless, I've corrected the logic as of r16751.
Additionally, if you've checked the code in BrowserFactory.cpp since r16733, you'll
notice that various error conditions now report different error strings, so it should
be easier to diagnose where the issue is occurring.

DesiredCapabilities ieCapabilities = DesiredCapabilities.internetExplorer();
        ieCapabilities.setCapability(InternetExplorerDriver.INTRODUCE_FLAKINESS_BY_IGNORING_SECURITY_DOMAINS,true);


WebDriver dr = new InternetExplorerDriver(ieCapabilities);

Add the below snippet works fine

By ignoring the protected mode settings 

var options = new InternetExplorerOptions();
options.IntroduceInstabilityByIgnoringProtectedModeSettings = true;
IWebDriver driver = new InternetExplorerDriver(options);

This feature works as intended, and the workaround in comment 48 is the right one.

@29 & @30. You people told that after Turned on the Protected mode,its working for you,
but when i changed the setting to Default in Security tab, i am getting the same error.
Please find the code below.

Please help me on this issue.

I am using windows XP and IE8 in my system. so I am not getting the Enable Protected
Mode Option. Can anyone suggest me workaround on this....

I second the previous question. We are on Windows XP and do not have the Enable Protected
Mode Option. What should we do in this case?

If you're running XP, I've repeatedly asked for a log at either the debug or trace levels
from IEDriverServer.exe so that I can diagnose the issue. No such log has been forthcoming.
If you're using the Java language bindings, you can change the logging level by setting
the appropriate attributes on the InternetExplorerDriverService, using the Builder
class (InternetExplorerDriverService.Builder). 

win 7, ie 9. Set all zones ( 4 tabs) protected mode on. And the problem is gone.

Look in your registry under the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet
Settings\Zones key. Under there, you should see keys number 0-5. Under keys 1-4, look
for a value named 2500, and list either the value for each of the keys, or if the value
does not exist.

thanks,my problem is solved.

If you turn ON protected mode in ALL Internet Explorer Zones (Security Tab in IE settings)
I believe the issue is resolved.

Hi, I'm having issues similar to the original poster;

I work for a company that enforces zone settings via Domain Policy/GPO. Our application
is a webapp that is currently IE-only (although we're looking to change that, thus
why I was tasked with investigating Selenium), and requires that Protected Mode be
disabled, and our site added as a Trusted Site in IE.

Our domain settings, however, leave Protected Mode on for the regular Internet zone;
our Security team will not budge on this, nor should they have to.

I've tried the following to bypass the registry check, but it doesn't seem to work.

InternetExplorerOptions options = new InternetExplorerOptions();
options.IntroduceInstabilityByIgnoringProtectedModeSettings = true;

(I'm writing in C#, not Java.)

Are there any other options to get this to work?

No. As discussed in multiple other places, including comments on this issue, there is
no other way around this issue. The reasons for this behavior in the IE driver are
technical, and well-documented. In other words, they are not arbitrary, put there to
frustrate you or your IT department. However, in point of fact, yes, they should be
expected to change their policy, if the expect WebDriver code to work with IE. The
technical reasons are documented in a post on the blog at http://jimevansmusic.blogspot.com.
As I also mentioned in comment #14, I'm willing to review any patches to the IE driver
that you believe would fix the issue.

Thanks, I was wondering if there may have been any developments since the last post
on this thread was a few years old.

Hi All,
You can use the below snippet.

                System.setProperty("webdriver.ie.driver",System.getProperty("user.dir")+"\\Drivers\\IEDriverServer.exe");
                //driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();
                DesiredCapabilities capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.internetExplorer();
                capabilities.setCapability(InternetExplorerDriver.INTRODUCE_FLAKINESS_BY_IGNORING_SECURITY_DOMAINS,true);
                driver = new InternetExplorerDriver(capabilities);
                driver.manage().window().maximize();

yup. Thanks. I resolve my issue with IE with above suggestions

Hi All, I use IE 8 on WIndows Server 2008. Even after disabling or enabling protected
mode on all 4 zones I still get this error. How can I resolve this issue without using
the INTRODUCE_FLAKINESS_BY_IGNORING_SECURITY_DOMAINS flag? Thots?

Hello all,

I just fixed this issue in my PC .. i m using Windows 8.1.. My code is as below:

case "ie":
            System.setProperty("webdriver.ie.driver",   
                                      "D:/Prathima/Selenium/IEDriverServer.exe");
            driver = new InternetExplorerDriver();
            openWebPage();
            break;

even I got same errors.. but I fixed them by setting Enable protected mode option in
all levels as shown in attachments. 

Set all zone settings also Enable protected mode.

Issue Solved, Thanks

Grt buddy, after enabling the protected mode in all zones it is worked for me. Thank
you
