UnhandledPromiseRejectionWarning: Error: Protocol error (Runtime.callFunctionOn): Target closed. (Puppeteer)


I am new to Puppeteer and Node and I get this error when trying to execute the following code:

'use strict';

const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');
const evalLib = require('./oaa_a11y_evaluation.js');

function evaluateRules() {
  var ruleset = OpenAjax.a11y.RulesetManager.getRuleset("ARIA_STRICT");
  var evaluator_factory = OpenAjax.a11y.EvaluatorFactory.newInstance();
  evaluator_factory.setParameter('ruleset', ruleset);
  evaluator_factory.setFeature('eventProcessing', 'fae-util');
  evaluator_factory.setFeature('groups', 7);
  var evaluator = evaluator_factory.newEvaluator();
  var evaluation = evaluator.evaluate(window.document, document.title, document.location.href);
  // var out = evaluation.toJSON(true);
  return;
}

(async() => {
  const browser = await puppeteer.launch();
  var page = await browser.newPage();
  await page.goto('http://mihirkumar.com/', {waitUntil: 'load'});
  page.evaluate(evaluateRules);
  await browser.close();
})();

Here's the error message in full detail:

Other examples from https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/puppeteer-examples run perfectly fine so I don't believe I need to use the fixes mentioned here. Thanks for the help.


Solution

  • Thanks for the responses. Making the function async is definitely a change for the better. My problem was that I wasn't injecting the OpenAjax javascript libraries into the loaded page. Once I did that with puppeteer's page.addScriptTag function things worked just fine.
