"WebDriverException: Message: chrome not reachable" When loading chrome profile #5998
Description
I am unsure if i should post this issue here or at
"If the issue is with Google Chrome consider logging an issue with chromedriver instead:
https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/help"
Hence I will be posting at both, but any help here is very much appreciated!
selenium version 2.53.6
ubuntu 16.04
python 2.7.15 on anaconda//jupyter notebook
chromedriver 2.39
Trying to run headless chrome
If I:
from selenium import webdriver
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument('--headless')
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path="gdrive_path", chrome_options=options)
it works fine
However, i have a warsaw plugin installed, which by my understanding is on associated to the chrome profile. Hence i need to load it.
So, if i try:
from selenium import webdriver
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument('--headless')
options.add_argument("--user-data-dir=/home/ubuntu/.config/google-chrome") #Path to your chrome profile
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=gdrive, chrome_options=options)
It shld work, but instead I get an error msg:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
