Hi,

I've just received an error '[IError ] [Module]: Parameter is not valid'. I've been running the same test multiple times in a loop for 4 days and not had this error. My test doesn't use parameters - it's a very simple soak test. What could be causing this?

Thanks

We think that the error has been generated because of a memory leak; and so have been pursuing this line of enquiry.
