WebDriverException: Message: Can not connect to the Service /usr/lib/chromium/chromium
One of the only places which seemed to show you how, but that might only work on Windows. That's where I got the code from. How to load default profile in chrome using Python Selenium Webdriver?
My code.
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument("user-data-dir=/home/me/.config/chromium/Default") #Path to your chrome profile
w = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path="/usr/lib/chromium/chromium", chrome_options=options)
w.get("https://google.com")
The browser opens up, pauses, doesn't go to the URL, then gives me that error message.
This code stops giving me the error message, but my user data does not show up.
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
config = "_config/"
chromedriver = config+"chromedriver"
options.add_argument("--profile-directory='Default'") #Path to your chrome profile
w = webdriver.Chrome(chromedriver, chrome_options=options)
w.get("https://google.com")
And if I used this executable path instead, with everything else being the same, it opens up the browser with all of the desired user data, but then gives this error. WebDriverException: Message: Service chromium unexpectedly exited. Status code was: 0 The browser stays open:
w = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path="chromium", chrome_options=options)
