Intermittent 'Navigating frame was detached' Error with GoToAsync Method

[BiQingQing]

Description

Hi,

I am using the “IxBrowser” to open multiple Chrome instances and interact with them through a WebSocket connection. Occasionally, when using the GoToAsync method to navigate to a page, I encounter the following error:

Navigating frame was detached: Connection failed to process Target.attachedToTarget. Timeout of 1000 ms exceeded.

The browser is configured with a proxy, and when this error occurs, the page is still loading normally in the browser.

Could you please provide some advice or suggestions on how to address this issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

 var browser = await Puppeteer.ConnectAsync(new ConnectOptions
 {
     BrowserWSEndpoint = "ws..."
 });
 var page = await browser.NewPageAsync();
 await Task.Delay(2 * 1000);
 var navOptions = new NavigationOptions
 {
     Timeout = 60 * 1000,
     WaitUntil = new[]
     {
         WaitUntilNavigation.Load
     }
 };
 await page.GoToAsync("https://www.facebook.com/", navOptions);

Expected behavior:

jump link

Actual behavior:

page.GoToAsync method throws a NavigationException, Navigating frame was detached: Connection failed to process Target.attachedToTarget. Timeout of 1000 ms exceeded.

Versions

PuppeteerSharp v16.0.0 or v20.0.5
.NET Core 6.0

@BiQingQing did you report that to IxBrowser? I bet something is crashing on their side.

[BiQingQing]

Thank you very much for your answer. I haven't reported this issue to IxBrowser yet, but I will do so now.

@arronax23 Hi, are you also opening Chrome through IxBrowser?
I currently have no way to avoid this error. I can only catch this error, open a new page, and then jump again.

Do you have any piece of code I can use to test this?

I'm not sure if this is exactly relevant to your issue but every version after 20.0.2 will not goto/load a page. It gets stuck forever loading the about:blank initial page. After a while of trial & error tests, I downgraded to PuppeteerSharp 20.0.2 and everything worked normally again so far.

Note: Debugged with Visual Studio 2922 on Win 10 Enterprise

Could you provide a test to reproduce it? We have tests running on Windows.
