I have installed HP UFT v12.01 and when trying to connect via HP UFT to HP ALM Quality Center v11.0 and I get the following error:

Failed to update components from server. Failed Hosting the Spider ActiveX

Any suggestions?

Follow the steps below

  • Launch IE as admin and navigate to ALM Tools
  • From the ALM Tools page, select "HP ALM Connectivity" and run. You should receive an "Installation Successful" message.
  • From the ALM Tools page, select "HP ALM Client Registration" and "Register HP ALM."
  • Log into your ALM Client to make sure that works.
  • Run UFT as administrator (this just needs to be done the first time when connecting to ALM).
  • Try connecting to ALM and see if the problem is still there.
