Problem

During the replay of an Ajax TruClient script in Vugen or the Controller the following error was observed:

Error -205177: Failed to startup RRE due to a timeoutfunction xlrCReplayEngineStartupNotifier::WaitForStartupNotification in .\xlrReplayEngineStartupNotifier.cpp(82), modified Sun Sep 5 16:57:31 2010, compiled Sep 14 2010 08:22:14 [MsgId: MERR-205177]

Solution

Two workarounds are available to resolve this issue as follows:

First save the script locally and then save it in the UNC path.

Option B:

1. Save the script in the UNC path
2. Open the script directory
3. Rename the RRE folder
4. Reopen the script
