Selenium test in Internet Explorer always times out?

Question

I'm trying to run a basic test in Internet Explorer via Selenium-RC/PHPUnit, and it always returns with

# phpunit c:\googletest.php
PHPUnit 3.4.15 by Sebastian Bergmann.

E

Time: 35 seconds, Memory: 4.75Mb

There was 1 error:

1) Example::testMyTestCase
PHPUnit_Framework_Exception: Response from Selenium RC server for testComplete()
.
Timed out after 30000ms.


C:\googletest.php:17

FAILURES!
Tests: 1, Assertions: 0, Errors: 1.

The last command in command history is waitForPageToLoad(30000). The same test runs fine and completes in firefox. How can I get this test to run and complete in internet explorer?

Thanks

Try going into Internet Options and turn off Protected mode under the security tab. You may also want to decrease the security level for the Internet zone.
