Selenium 3 & Firefox 50

[Jim Byrnes]

Ubuntu 14.04
Selenium 3.0.1
Firefox 50.0
Selenium-server-standalone-2.53.0.jar
Geckodriver dated 10-10-16 (is on my path)

Getting the following message:

Unable to connect to host 127.0.0.1 on port 7055 after 45000 ms.

Googling turns up lots of hits but they seem to be about Firefox 47 and
Selenium 2.xx.

I get that error running this little test script.

from selenium import webdriver

desired_caps = {}
desired_caps['platform'] = 'LINUX'
desired_caps['browserName'] = 'firefox'
driver = webdriver.Remote('http://127.0.0.1:4444/wd/hub', desired_caps)
driver.get('http://www.yahoo.com')

This is my first attempt at using the standalone server so maybe I am
doing something wrong.

Regards, Jim

It would be useful if you could produce a verbose log from geckodriver.
See the README on how to crank up the logging verbosity:

https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver#log-object

Here is a pastebin link of the logging:

It doesn’t look like the verbose output from Marionette is included
there. I notice you’re using the Python bindings, so you should check
if geckodriver.log in your CWD has any more information.

Hi,

are you using geckodriver?

I think you should use something like 

System.setProperty("webdriver.firefox.marionette","G:\\Selenium\\Firefox driver\\geckodriver.exe");

 

             // if above property is not working or not opening the application in browser then try below property

 

             //System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver","G:\\Selenium\\Firefox driver\\geckodriver.exe");

 

            WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();

Hi Moises,

Yes, I am using the geckodriver. I did see that link when I was
googling for a solution, but it seems to be fore Windows and Java while
I am using Linux and Python.

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. As I was trying to get the
info you requested I discovered that nothing had been written to the
geckodriver.log since Nov 19. After awhile I realized that was about the
time I started experimenting with the standalone server. As a test I ran
a small working non-server script and info was written to the log.

It seems that I some how must not have been using the geckodriver when I
was experimenting with the standalone server. Once I figure out what I
was doing wrong maybe the error will go away.

Regards, Jim
