    Do you have same configuration on your both the Machine-

     

    Like -

    1- TestComplete version.

    2- Operating System

    3- You Application Version (UAT)

    4- If Web Application then Browser Version etc..

     

     

    because we have running test on several machine and did not face any issue related to object (Platform should be same on all machine) 

     

    Re-map the objects - is not a very good idea all the time, if your objects (NameMapping) is very huge and running on deferent machines.

    I'm with Bobik on this... something environmental is different on the second machine causing the object to not be found. NameMapping depends upon certain properties of objects in order to find them. So, if those properties are different on a different machine, then the object may not be found properly.

    Additionally, the second machine MAY run things slower than the first... so, it might be that the second machine actually timed out looking for the object (10 seconds is the default usually) and so reported the object as not found.  Double check time stamps on things to see if there is a possibility of a timeout.
