Selenium HtmlUnit Driver Exception

Question

I'm using JUnit, Selenium WebDriver and try to make some tests with HtmlUnit and http://vk.com site but fail. It looks like FirefoxDriver works great for me.
Here is code:

@Before
public void setUp() {
    DesiredCapabilities capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.htmlUnit();      
    capabilities.setBrowserName("Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:24.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/24.0");
    capabilities.setVersion("24.0");
    capabilities.setJavascriptEnabled(true);
    driver = new HtmlUnitDriver(capabilities);  
    driver.manage().timeouts()
            .implicitlyWait(Integer.parseInt(TIMEOUT), TimeUnit.SECONDS);
    driver.get("http://vk.com");
}

@Test
public void SomeTest() {
    /* LoginPage - described class in PageObject traditions */
    LoginPage start = new LoginPage(driver);
    LOG.info(driver.getPageSource());   
    //...     
}

When I start it I get the an exception:

    org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: com.gargoylesoftware.htmlunit.ScriptException: Exception invoking setInnerHTML

Any suggestions? ps. This is black-box testing I've no access to change internal code on site.

Different drivers have different ways to handle javascript.

Htmlunit uses Rhino and firefox-driver uses Firefox's default javascript handler and hence, you see different results with different drivers.

Replace htmlUnit() with firefox() for your fix.

DesiredCapabilities capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.firefox()
  capabilities.setBrowserName("Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:24.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/24.0");
  capabilities.setVersion("24.0");      
  driver = new HtmlUnitDriver(capabilities);
