I'm writing a watir script. It runs fine on OS X but when I run it on ubuntu, after the the first few watir commands, I get the following error:
empty body: "application/json" (500)

NOTE: the 1 line form my file in the stack trace is
frame.select_list(:name => 'SOME_ID').select('SOMETHING')
and frame is frame = @browser.frame(:id => 'SOME_FRAME')
Again, this works in OS X. I am using Firefox as my browser. When I use Chrome, it gets passed this issue but breaks later on in a part of the site not compatible with Chrome (don't blame me, I didn't write it haha)
