any idea why Angular cannot be found? or how should i fix this?

I've actually had this exact same issue on OSX.

After this, the instance of Chrome it had opened up remains open in a hung state.

[andreyselitsky]

me too

[cm325]

same here, why is this issue closed?

[cm325]

downgrading to 1.8.0 fixed this issue-

[glepretre]

Do you call browser.get() inside your onPrepare function? See #1978

[cm325]

I'm using browser.get(), but i don't think I'm using onPrepare, I'm running this example for angular todomvc - https://github.com/mknabe/angular-testing-starter/blob/master/test/e2e/scenarios.js

[dremonkey]

bump...

like @cm325 I am getting the "angular could not be found on the window" error when running 2.0.0 but downgrading to 1.8.0 fixes the issue

[JesusLopezCh]

BUMP!

same issue after upgrading to v2.1.0, had to downgrade to 1.8.0 to fix the issue

[badisa]

Having this same problem also on OSX

Edited - Fixed

So I fixed this by changing the following code in one of my Page Constructors:

this.currentUrl =  browser.getCurrentUrl();

To

this.currentUrl = function(){
    return browser.getCurrentUrl();
  };

[srajagopalan1712]

My tests were running fine and for no reason this showed up. I made no changes to the system or code to cause this. I cannot downgrade, I need 2.0. I did the last workaround for currentUrl and that does not help either. ANy help will be awesome..

I'm experienced the same at Monday. Last Friday everything was fine, then from Monday I cannot run any test because when the login page needs to be loaded, which is a non-Angular page, I get the same error. Tried to downgrade protractor to 1.8.0 and 1.4.0, nothing, tried to change the framework to 'jasmine2', again nothing, I'm not using browser.get in onPrepare. I haven't got more idea what can I try. Any other suggestions, what can I change or try? Thx!
