Maybe there is a connection to bug 1207038, but it wouldn't explain the failure on aurora since Tuesday given that the patch has been backported yesterday.

Not been seen in a while so closing

Comment 3

[Andreas Tolfsen ❲:ato❳]

I see this all the time.  It happens when you send messages to commands that make proxy calls to the listener after the content browser context has been lost by switching to another or by discarding it.

Comment 4

[Andreas Tolfsen ❲:ato❳]

This also blocks WebDriver compatibility because a “no such window” error should be returned.

Comment 5

[David Burns :automatedtester]

Please raise a bug for comment 4 so that the sheriffs don't conflate an intermittent/flaky test with this.

Also, when you see this in automation, can you classify it so that it is easy for me to spot in OF. Currently there have been no classifications for this bug in a very long time.

Comment 6

[David Burns :automatedtester]

Closing as intermittent has not been seen in last 45 days

Comment 7

[BMO Automation]

Moving bug to Testing::Marionette Client and Harness component per bug 1815831.
