Never mind! the issue got resolved after fixing the Testing_Home path to use '\\' instead of'\' in the path value. Thank you for your support though, appreciate it.

When I search Appian community for the below error, the same was mentioned to set Ffitnesse.properties and set FitNesseRootDir to the actual directory of the project. What is actual director exactly mean, is it where the Appian is stored or where test scripts stored?

Error Message

Could not complete testing: fitnesse.slim.SlimError: Error SLiM server died before Header Message could be read. Unable to start test system 'slim': fitnesse.slim.SlimError: Error SLiM server died before Header Message could be read.

David, before no values, from your previous message fitness.properties I have interrupted as set to the actual project directory to the FitnesseRootDir.

I will clear those two values.

In Fitnesse.properties file below are set, same error.

#The directory in which FitNesse looks for top level pages.
FitNesseRootDir=C:\FitNesseForAppian\fitnesse-for-appian-24.2.0
FitNesseRoot=
log.level=DEBUG

How to check the log files?

at search-ms:displayname=Search%20Results%20in%20fitnesse-for-appian-24.2.0&crumb=location:C%3A%5CFitNesseForAppian%5Cfitnesse-for-appian-24.2.0\LogFiles?

Do you see any more error in logs?

This is common error caused by when TESTING_HOME is incorrect. Modify the fitnesse.properties and custom-properties file in the root directory of the FitNesse package so that field FitNesseRootDir is set to the actual directory of the project.

Hi David,

Thanks for the quick response, yes, automated.testing.home=C:\FitNesseForAppian\fitnesse-for-appian-24.2.0

Anything else would be missed?

Hi!!!

Check testing_home variable in custom.properties file, and verify that points to the correct path.

I am new to the Appian for Fitnesse, I face the same exact issue, what could I be doing wrong? I am stuck at this step.

Could you please check if you have connectivity, and also Fitnesse configuration? Check testing_home variable in custom.properties file please.
