Browser Diagnostics

Use the diagnostics page to test whether your browser can run WEPPcloud, to copy a report you can attach to a bug report or support email, and to reset WEPPcloud's stored browser state when sign-in or requests misbehave. It works with or without signing in.

What This Page Helps You Do

WEPPcloud depends on browser features that occasionally break or get blocked: cookies, JavaScript, local storage, and the live connections that stream run progress to your screen. The diagnostics page runs a series of checks against your current browser and this site, then summarizes whether WEPPcloud is expected to work.

Open it when:

  • pages load but runs never seem to start or update,
  • you can't stay signed in, or sign-in loops back to the login page,
  • progress bars or status messages freeze while a run is actually still going,
  • support asks you to "send a diagnostics report."

You can reach it from the More → Diagnostics menu on the WEPPcloud home page, signed in or not.

Watching a Run

Checks start automatically when the page opens. Every check appears immediately as its own row, and each row updates live as its check runs:

Row state Meaning
queued The check is waiting its turn
running The check is in progress
pass This capability works in your browser right now
warn / fail Something is limited or broken; the row explains the impact and what to do
skipped The check didn't apply — most often because it requires being signed in

A counter above the list shows how many checks have finished. The full run takes about half a minute to a minute, because the connection checks deliberately watch for dropped connections rather than only testing that one opens. The connection and network checks are the slow ones; that is normal.

Use Re-run diagnostics to repeat all checks without reloading the page — for example after changing a browser setting, disconnecting from a VPN, or disabling an extension.

Reading a Result

Passing rows just show a short confirmation. Rows that warn or fail show three things:

  • Impact — what this means for WEPPcloud in plain language. Some failures mean WEPPcloud cannot run at all in this browser (JavaScript or cookies blocked); others mean WEPPcloud still works but a capability such as live status updates may be limited.
  • What to do — the suggested fix, such as allowing cookies for this site or trying without a VPN.
  • Technical detail — the underlying measurement, useful when sharing the result with support.

Sharing a Report

After the checks finish, use Copy JSON to copy the full report to your clipboard, then paste it into an email or issue. The report is redacted — it contains no passwords, tokens, or cookie values — so it is safe to share with support. A preview of exactly what will be copied is available under Report Preview.

Browser Session Reset

The Browser Session Reset card clears WEPPcloud's cookies and WEPPcloud site storage in this browser, then signs you out. It does not change your account, your runs, or anything stored on the server — only what this browser remembers about this site.

Use it when damaged browser state is the suspected problem:

  • sign-in keeps failing or looping in this browser but works elsewhere,
  • archive downloads or token requests fail repeatedly,
  • support suggests "clear your WEPPcloud browser state."

It works without signing in, which matters for the most common case: browser state broken badly enough that sign-in itself fails. After the reset you land on the sign-in page with a clean slate.

Limits and Common Mistakes

  • The network speed numbers are approximate and environment-dependent. VPNs, Wi-Fi, and browser throttling all affect them; treat them as a rough signal, not a measurement.
  • Ad blockers, strict privacy modes, and some corporate proxies can block the live-connection checks even though the rest of WEPPcloud works. If those checks warn, try re-running after disabling the blocker for this site.
  • If you are not signed in, the sign-in-related checks show as skipped. That is expected, not a failure.
  • Browser Session Reset only affects the browser you run it in. If the same problem follows you across browsers or computers, it is not browser state — include a diagnostics report when you contact support.
