python, selenium, chromedriver 'selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: u'chrome not reachable

Question

I am using this code to navigate a webpage, using selenium and chromedriver 2.9 (have also tried 2.8 without success)... I get this errors, all I want is test to show up in a firefox iframe:)

What happens it that the firefox has no problem with supporting an image link in an iframe, and the image pops up great. But text will not show up in the iframe. Not sure why the image link works, but the text does not.

def pickbrowser(browserchoice):
    usrplatform = _platform.system()
    if browserchoice == "1":
        browser = webdriver.Firefox()

    elif browserchoice == "2":
        if usrplatform == "Linux":
            chromepath = os.path.abspath("Webdriver/Linux/86/chromedriver")
            os.environ["webdriver.chrome.driver"] = chromepath
            browser = webdriver.Chrome(chromepath)

        elif usrplatform == "Windows":
            chromepath = os.path.abspath("Webdriver/Windows/86/chromedriver.exe")
            print "checkpoint chrome, windows 1"
            os.environ["webdriver.chrome.driver"] = chromepath
            print "checkpoint chrome, windows 2"
            browser = webdriver.Chrome(chromepath)

        elif usrplatform == "Windows":

        elif usrplatform == "darwin":
            browser = webdriver.PhantomJS(os.path.abspath("Webdriver/Mac/86/phantomjs"))

    return browser

driver = pickbrowser(raw_input("which browser do you want to use\n 1. Firefox\n 2. Chrome\n 3. PhantomJS\n 4. Internet Explorer\nYour choice: "))
print "\ncheckpoint 1"
driver.get("https://www.chess.com/login")
print "checkpoint 2\n"

WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.ID, "btnLogin")))
driver.find_element_by_name("c1").send_keys(raw_input("Username: "))
print "\ncheckpoint 2.1\n"
driver.find_element_by_name("loginpassword").send_keys(raw_input("Password: : "))
print "\ncheckpoint 2.2"
driver.find_element_by_id("btnLogin").click()
print "checkpoint 3\n"

driver.get(raw_input("Link to receivers send pm page: "))
print "\ncheckpoint 4\n"

WebDriverWait(driver, 10).until(EC.presence_of_element_located((By.ID, "c15")))
driver.find_element_by_name("c15").send_keys(raw_input("Subject line: "))
print "\ncheckpoint 5\n"

driver.switch_to_frame("tinymcewindow_ifr")
print "checkpoint 5.1"
driver.find_element_by_id("tinymce").clear()
print "checkpoint 5.2"
driver.switch_to_default_content()
print "checkpoint 6"

driver.switch_to_frame("tinymcewindow_ifr")
print "checkpoint 6.1\n"
driver.find_element_by_id("tinymce").send_keys(raw_input("Message: "))
print "\ncheckpoint 6.2"
driver.switch_to_default_content()
print "checkpoint 7"

driver.find_element_by_id("c16").click()

Here are the errors messages which are generated from the python script. The script tried to go through checkpoints, but then would produce errors. I am completely lost.

Consider that your chrome browser version should be the same as your chrome web-driver version. — Zeinab Abbasimazar, Mar 25 '14 at 11:29

I noticed from your code that you are manipulating TinyMCE. This editor needs to be handled by JavaScript. There are many answers on SO and Internet how to handle this. Here is one good enswer: Selenium and wordpress: New post test
