Subject: bug#65633: python-selenium raises a WebDriverException because driver is not found in PATH
Date: Wed, 30 Aug 2023 18:10:57 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <613a2c473a3924dba39b181aeadf1ac9@dismail.de> (raw)

Hi Guixers,

I'm adding this as a future TODO for myself or anyone else that would like to work on it.

python-selenium fails with the following when webdriver.Chrome is called:

driver = webdriver.Chrome('./chromedriver') 
  File "/gnu/store/hz5k0k0lggsn6j2ij49xriawbwrq988n-profile/lib/python3.10/site-packages/selenium/webdriver/chrome/webdriver.py", line 73, in __init__
    self.service.start()
  File "/gnu/store/hz5k0k0lggsn6j2ij49xriawbwrq988n-profile/lib/python3.10/site-packages/selenium/webdriver/common/service.py", line 81, in start
    raise WebDriverException(
selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: 'chromedriver' executable needs to be in PATH. Please see https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/home
