I’m sorry, but I can’t tell what is wrong here unless you provide the full log from geckodriver. I suspect protractor is swallowing it, so you need to find some way to expose the stdout/stderr from geckodriver.

I can tell from the stacktrace that it has something to do with creating a new Marionette (remote protocol) connection to Firefox.

[floriankammermann]

Will try to create a reproducer.

[andreastt]

Closing due to inactivity. I will happily reopen if reproducible steps are added.

[floriankammermann]

Couldn't create a reproducer.

Hello,

I have a similar stacktrace on :

• RHEL 7.2
• Firefox 55.0.2
• geckodriver 0.18 (64 bits)
• Selenium 3.5.2
• Serenity 1.5.9

Note : On Windows 10 everything is running well with FF 55 and gecko 0.18

@mmanach can you please provide a trace log? The output above is not enough. Thanks.
