Failed once so far on a Windows 7 machine, with Aurora it locale:

It looks that it didn't open the results page, failing here:

Most likely it was an AMO page issue, didn't happen again since then. I tried to reproduce it but without any luck on Windows machines.
Please reopen if necessary.

Happened again today on Windows NT 6.1.7601 (x86) Firefox 24.0 (24.0, it, 20130902131354). It seems to be the same Windows type (might be the same machine) and the same FF 24 it.

Before we start to open and close bugs for AMO related remote tests again and again, can we insert a specific step, which could tell us if AMO is not available? I think that would help a lot when it comes to the investigation.

We've also talked about this in the past weeks.
Filed bug 911909 for it

Comment 5

[mario garbi]

I agree, it might have been a AMO issue since I cannot reproduce it on the failing machine. Until the enhancement Andrei talked about is up is there a way of telling if AMO wasn't available at the time of the failure since the Jenkins log didn't said much in this case.

Also should we close this again or do we want to wait a few days?

Did not happened again since that failure, I assume it was the page not being available. The work there is being handled in bug 911909, so this is safe to close.
