What is the error message you are seeing in cmd prompt

[aman4you]

After some snapshot, snapping process stop. there is no error message in cmd prompt

[aman4you]

When snapping process not completing than i have to use ctrl + c command for try again.

Hi,

I tried your config,

#Headless browser option
browser:
  phantomjs: "phantomjs"

#If you want to have multiple snapping files, set the file name here
snap_file: "javascript/snap.js"

# Type the name of the directory that shots will be stored in
directory: 'shots'

# Add only 2 domains, key will act as a label
domains:
  dev: "http://hcldev.prod.acquia-sites.com"
  live: "http://www.hcltech.com"

#Type screen widths below, here are a couple of examples
screen_widths:
  - 600
  - 1024

#Type page URL paths below, here are a couple of examples
paths:
  Page1: /careers/explore-hcl
  Page2: /financial-services
  page3: /i-have-an-idea/straighttalk
  page4: /servers-and-storage
  page5: /i-have-an-idea/hcl-global-meet
  page6: /grassroot-innovations
  page7: /consumer-electronics
  page8: /geo-presence/united-states

#Amount of fuzz ImageMagick will use
fuzz: '20%'

and JS file

var system = require('system');
var page = require('webpage').create();
var fs = require('fs');

if (system.args.length === 3) {
console.log('Usage: snap.js ');
phantom.exit();
}

var url = system.args[1];
var image_name = system.args[3];
var view_port_width = system.args[2];

page.viewportSize = { width: view_port_width, height: 1500};
page.settings = { loadImages: true, javascriptEnabled: true };

page.settings.userAgent = 'Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_8_2) AppleWebKit/537.17 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/28.0.1500.95 Safari/537.17';

page.open(url, function(status) {
  if(status == 'success') {
    window.setTimeout(function() {
      console.log('Snapping ' + url + ' at width ' + view_port_width);
      page.render(image_name);
      phantom.exit();
      }, 5000);
  } else {
    console.log('Error with page ' + url);
    phantom.exit();
  }
});

It's possible there are some spaces or format issues with your files, could you try copy and paste mine and see if they work.

Thanks for reply. I tried the above code but still snapping process not finishing. I think may be these problem occur because of parallel execution of snapshot. How to take one snapshot at one time.

[dblooman]

Could you confirm you have imagemagick installed

[aman4you]

yes, imagemagick is installed.

If i run command "wraith capture config" for some url's like 3 and at screen width like 1024 then snapping process is completing. If i increase the number of url's like 10 and at screen width like 1024, 600 and 300 then snapping process is not completing.

Hi, I have same problem as described above.
My config:
Windows 8 Lenovo W540 laptop, PhantomJS 1.9.8. Wraitha 3.2.0, Imagemagick 6.9.5, Ruby 2.3.

On "Snapping..." it freezes... it just creates the first images but not the thumbnails.
I've tried different options... basing on default capture.yaml config :/

[ChrisBAshton]

We recommend using PhantomJS 2+. If upgrading Phantom does not work, please open a new issue.

Thanks

[Qlczas]

Hi,
I had the issues as everyone else e.g. #441
when used Phantom 2+. It's not even starting to take screenshot.

With Phantom1.9.8 I got stuck at "snapping"...

[nimishsinghal]

Hi,
Even I am facing this issue Error: Cannot find module '../javascript/disable_javascript--phantom.js'. My version of PhantomJS is 2.1.7, I tried using 1.9.2 but support is not there for this version.

[jcmartinez]

Same issue here.
It only finishes the job when I have one screen resolution. If I configure more than one resolution, it freezes at the end.
I enabled "verbose: true" and I don't see feedback of anything breaking; however, it apparently freezes right before showing the "CROPPING IMAGES" message.
