Geckodriver stack overflow with Android

[testingbot]

System

• Version: v0.26.0
• Platform: Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS with a Real Device Android connected via ADB
• Firefox: fennec-68.2.1.en-US.android-aarch64.apk

Testcase

Trying to get geckodriver to work with Firefox on Android on a (real device) Pixel.
I installed geckodriver v0.26.0, then started it with geckodriver -p 3031 --log trace.
When I send a start session request, the geckodriver process crashes:

thread 'webdriver dispatcher' has overflowed its stack fatal runtime error: stack overflow Aborted (core dumped)

I start the session with:
curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -v http://localhost:3031/session -d '{"capabilities":{"firstMatch":[{"moz:firefoxOptions":{"androidPackage":"org.mozilla.firefox"}}]}}'

Does it work with the default port, means when you remove the -p option?

Figured out what the problem is: the screen was turned off and locked while sending the curl command.

Had to do this: adb -d shell input keyevent 26 && adb -d shell input keyevent 82 to wake up and unlock the screen, after that it worked like a charm 👍

Great to hear that! If there are other issues please let us know!

Is there anything we can do to turn the screen on? Perhaps adb shell input keyevent KEYCODE_POWER?

[whimboo]

Hm, I wonder if chromedriver handles that? If yes we might also wanna do it.
