The object "Sys" does not exist

[JackalNZZ]

Hi,

I have developed a simple keyword test that is working except for one line. It is clicking a Yes button on a window dialog rather than the No button.

So I changed the test to click the No button. I had to map the No button in the NameMapping object and save the change.

When the test is rerun I keep getting the following

If I restore the original NameMapping object without the newly mapped No button everything goes back to working.

Now I know the process LabWare-prePROD exists because the immediate prior message is 

because of the below script code

Set p = Sys.WaitProcess(processName)
While not p.Exists
    Call Log.Message("Waiting for " + processName + " to start", "", pmNormal, logAttributes)
    Set p = Sys.WaitProcess(processName)
Wend
Call Log.Message(processName + " exists", "", pmNormal, logAttributes)

What would make the Sys object not found?

regards

Thank you for posting your question @JackalNZZ !

I can recommend taking the following learning course that is specifically designed to help deal with the object not found errors - https://academy.smartbear.com/store/727583-testcomplete-handling-the-object-not-found-errors 

In the meantime, let's see if the Community has ideas!

Any thoughts @Wamboo @Reshail @tristaanogre @BenoitB ?

Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately it does not address the question.

I know how to handle object missing errors, that's fairly trivial.

The problem is I get a Sys object missing when I map a simple button object and add it to the NameMapping object and I want to know why.

Hi,

It might help if you post here a screenshot of your keyword test and indicate what line/operation throws the error.

I also assume that you followed the procedure (https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/testing-with/object-identification/name-mapping/add/..., https://support.smartbear.com/testcomplete/docs/testing-with/object-identification/name-mapping/how-...) when you modified NameMapping.
