UiPath robots stopping execution and just hanging untill killed

License type(Free, Trial/License code): Enterprise, unattended connected to Orchestrator

Studio/Robot version: 2019.4.4

Current behavior: robot stops at random step and hangs forever or untill killed from Orchestrator

A process running on an unattended robot (windows 10 vmware virtual) the process then stops at a random time, and does nothing untill i kill it from Orchestrator. no timeouts, no errorlogs, just nothing.
This has now happend more than 5 times in about 2 weeks.

The Windows log on the win10 machine has the following entries:
"UiPath.Service.Host 19.4.4.0
Subscribe hub failed, err : Connection started reconnecting before invocation result was received. "

Hi @dampergud1

Could you check with our technical support about this one?
It might be tricky to debug on the Forum, but I’m sure our support can offer some direct assistance :slight_smile:

Hi,

I am also experiencing the same problem where my Bots just completely hang even on simple tasks such as printing a log message. I have been advised by someone else who faced this issue to try version 2019.4.3 who he has said that it fixed all hanging issues! I suggest that you do the same and also Orchestrator (2019.4.2) works fine as well but it looks like a problem with StudioRobot versions: 2019.4.2 and 2019.4.4

I would only make one side remark - please make sure that the robot process and studio run on the same version. Version mismatch between the two will often lead to unexpected behaviours and instability.
