@xtianus79 could you please press (Ctrl + Shift + I for Windows, or Cmd + Shift + I for Mac) in order to open the developer tools window, and try clicking the Restart Conversation button?

Once you do, please send a screenshot of the console tab with any error messages.

I have tried reproducing this on version 4.7.0-107479 and the button works as expected for me.

here is image @tonyanziano this is the screenshot. It works sometimes but after it breaks it won't refresh anymore.

@xtianus79 thanks for the screenshot, that's very helpful.

I think I may know where this error is originating from. I'll take a look.

I have found the issue that is causing the error you are seeing. The error is resulting from this line here, because we are calling text() outside of the context of response which is wrong.

However, once I fixed that, I noticed that the code is still not surfacing the correct error that you should be seeing which is the result of not being able to post an activity to your bot. I'm working on fixing that now.

@xtianus79 There is a PR out #2087, that will show a more detailed error in the console so we can debug why restarting a conversation is sometimes failing for you.

Hi @xtianus79 ,

Please update to the newest nightly version, 4.7.0-109326, and try to reproduce this issue again.

When you run into the issue, open the dev tools console window, and you should now see a detailed error message about what went wrong. Feel free to post that error here and we can help you debug.

@tonyanziano yes that is working!!! thank you sir

[xtianus79]

@tonyanziano the emulator still seems to have memory issues. Refresh now works sometimes and the need to open and close the emulator to reuse it.

@xtianus79 can you please open the dev tools and take a screenshot of the console tab with any errors when you encounter this issue again?
