Python : Selenium - Message: Unknown Error: Chrome Failed To Start: Exited Abnormally

I am trying to start chrome driver in Linux 3.10.0-327.36.3.el7 using selenium with python. Also got some useful help from the chrome documentation, my extract code snippet is chr

Solution 1:

Not sure if you made your chromedriver executable ( on a Ubuntu/Linux/Mac system). If you didn't do that, your chromedriver wouldn't work.

Please try this - if you haven't

chmod +x chromedriver

 chmod 777 chromedriver

And then try again. I wrote a simple script for this and I was able to get my chrome started perfectly -

import os
from selenium import webdriver

chrome_path="/home/rahul/Documents/SeleniumPy/chromedriver"//this is my chromedriver path

driver=webdriver.Chrome(chrome_path)

driver.maximize_window()

driver.implicitly_wait(30)
driver.get('http://www.google.com')

driver.quit()
