Chrome not found by the selenium

Question

I wrote a Python script that has been working for over a year. Recently it stopped working since it doesn't find chromium at all, the terminal keeps showing this

/bin/sh: 1: google-chrome: not found
/bin/sh: 1: google-chrome-stable: not found
/bin/sh: 1: google-chrome-beta: not found
/bin/sh: 1: google-chrome-dev: not found

The latest version of the browser is installed in its usual path 'usr/bin/chromium-browser' and I also have the latest driver version, here's the part of the script that should open a Chrome window and goes to its designated URL:

import pandas as pd
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
driver_path = './chromedriver'
url = [URL]
loginid=input("id: ")
loginpass=input("password: ")
options = Options()
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=Service(ChromeDriverManager().install()), options=options)
driver.get(url)
driver.find_element(By.ID, "loginid").send_keys(loginid)
driver.find_element(By.ID, "loginpass").send_keys(loginpass)

what should I update?

You have to switch to version, version='114.0.5735.90'.

driver=webdriver.Chrome(ChromeDriverManager(version='114.0.5735.90').install())
it's because https://chromedriver.chromium.org/downloads only goes up to version 114.
OR Update your selenium and checkout the solution There is no such driver by URL https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/LATEST_RELEASE_115.0.5790 error with Python webdrivermanager & Chrome 115.0
