    Do you use a terminal or Docker Desktop to start your Cypress container?
  • s
    Mac terminal ( just ran the command in Mac terminal).
  • c
    Alright, so you have to navigate to your cypress/e2e of your local project (with 
    cd
    ) and than run the command from there, once you are inside the folder.
  • c
    Is there a reason, why you want the version 9.4.1? If not, why not use the current version? 
    docker run -it -v $PWD:/e2e -w /e2e --entrypoint=cypress cypress/included:10.7.0
  • s
    ok. running with 10.7.0 now...downloading contents..
  • c
    Have you already written any tests?
  • s
    cypress tests are working fine when running by npx cypress run or open. It runs in circleci, gitlab, github action also. Issue only with docker 😦
  • s
    as per the error message, the configuration file is missing in /e2e. Do we need any additional configuration for docker?
  • c
    Not sure how to transfer or mount the config file. There is a similar issue here https://github.com/cypress-io/github-action/issues/564 ... You would need to dig into that without me, because it isn't directly docker related. Best of luck

    Hi! I got this warning while running my test: "cy.session() requires enabling the experimentalSessionAndOrigin flag." - Can you advise how to do this? Am I adding a piece of code to cypress.config.js or is there a box somewhere to toggle this on?
  • c
    Yes, you add it into you 
    cypress.config.js
    file. My TypeScript-file looks like this:
    Copy code
    ts
export default defineConfig({
...
  e2e: {
    ...
    experimentalSessionAndOrigin: true,
    ...
  },
...
});
    Should be similar in Javascript

    thank you!
  • n
    correct?
  • c
    I think, it should be one level higher. Outside of setupNodeEvents, not inside.
  • n
    moved it up, still get the same warning though :/
  • c
    I think you have to restart Cypress, so that the config gets refreshed.
  • t
    Afaik it should Auto reload but restarts usually work lol

    Hello Everyone I am running into some issues this morning and getting this error: The command was expected to run against origin but the application is at origin I am able to navigate manually to the url and even with other tools but Cypress throws that error can someone help me with this error?
  • c
    Is there some more information in the error?
  • w
    @chilly-quill-34099 what more information are you requesting. Can you please a little specific?
  • h
    I have a test that sometimes fails on the CI due to timeouts, specifically when there are multiple instances of Cypress running. Guess the server is lagging a bit when that happens. Would setting a custom timeout be okay to remedy this?
  • c
    Very often Cypress gives multiple lines of explanation regarding the error. Are you leaving your website (the origin), while doing the e2e tests?
  • w
    @chilly-quill-34099
  • w
    no, I am not leaving my website
  • w
    @chilly-quill-34099 I am on the same page as far as i know.
  • c
    Would 
    cy.url().should('include', ****)
    be an option? If so, what is the result?
  • w
    trying that now.
  • w
    it failed again
  • w
    I do click the dropdown and then page loads and quickly throws that error SESSION TIMEOUT
