Getting Error about puppeteer-examples

[tnolet]

@itaditya Let me check! I just noticed Puppeteer hit 1.0.0 over night, so that could be an issue if you installed freshly. In the meantime, can you tell me:

• your OS
• Node version

I just checked with Puppeteer 1.0 and it seems to work fine. My setup:

• MacOs Sierra
• Node v8.6.0
• Puppeteer 1.0.0-post

My machine :

• Windows 7
• Node v8.6.0
• Puppeteer git+https://github.com/GoogleChrome/puppeteer.git#12b57e31f386b1bd8845aba0246894fde8fe9ed8

@itaditya I'm afraid this must be a Puppeteer issue with Windows issue then. I have not tested this yet. Can you try the simplest possible puppeteer scripts, like the one on the Puppeteer page itself and see if that works?

const puppeteer = require('puppeteer');

(async () => {
  const browser = await puppeteer.launch();
  const page = await browser.newPage();
  await page.goto('https://example.com');
  await page.screenshot({path: 'example.png'});

  await browser.close();
})();

Yeah I guess this is a puppeteer issue, and quite common for a beta service. However, I'm suggesting that we should atleast handle the exception with try/catch.

Yes, correct. In any other situation I would wrap the examples in try catch blocks. But I want to keep the examples clear and unfuzzy. I think maybe an extra specific category on error handling would work nicely!
