Failed to get the text of the list view item.

I am getting an error that says "failed to get the text of list view item." when running a test. The check that I have which is basically waiting for a job to not show up anymore in a queue has been working before, but recently it seems like TestComplete is loosing it and this is causing my tests to fail. The check works for a while, but then suddenly it shows the above error and this causes it to continue on without the job completing which causes other problems and eventually the test is a complete failure.

    I would but the log file ended up being over 10GB because it continued on and kept erroring at one point. TestComplete would not even open the log. I was able to work around this error by putting a longer delay between checks. Instead of 1 second I changed it to 25 seconds and so far I have not seen that error again.

    I am now encountering this problem again everytime I run the tests. I do not have a log with it because I have errors being supressed, I will remove the error supression and run again so that I can send you the information.
