    Use NameMappingRefresh before performing an action on the object, it may resolve your issue example as given below

     

      NameMapping.Sys.Refresh()
      NameMapping.Sys.RefreshMappingInfo()
      aqUtils.Delay(500)

     

      object,Click()

      //or any other operation

     

    small delay is required (or observed) to make it work smooth.

     

    Also try the below settings

    Options->Engines->Name Mapping->Update Name Mapping during test run

     

    Make that check box enable (Checked)

     

    Hope it may resolve your problem

    I have added this code. this  problem happens occasionally   . i did n't this problem again. so i am not sure. Because earlier i used to refresh  object browser manually it did not solve problem. so let me check it for a while to see it happens or not.

    I really appreciate the response. Thanks.

    I've seen that happen occasionally and the only way we fixed it was by rebooting.  Seems like TestComplete forgets the name mapping every once in a while.  We couldn't reproduce it on demand so Support couldn't really help us.

    Did you try launching application via testedApps?

      Usually i start application manually. On installation it is launched automatically. Then i ran test scripts.

      I will try starting application from the script.

      Thanks for the response,
