New issue 1181 by marcin.floryan: Firefox driver connection problem
http://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=1181
Using firefox driver version 2.0b1 in openSuse 11.3 x64 with Mozilla
Firefox 3.6.12
I'm getting the following error trying to use selenium firefox driver to
run functional tests
(grails development but I don't think it's relevant)
System info: os.name: 'Linux', os.arch: 'amd64',
os.version: '2.6.34.7-0.5-desktop', java.version: '1.6.0_22'
Driver info: driver.version: FirefoxDriver

Caused by: org.openqa.selenium.firefox.NotConnectedException: Unable to
connect to host 127.0.0.2 on port 7055 after 45000 ms
at
org.openqa.selenium.firefox.internal.NewProfileExtensionConnection.start(NewProfileExtensionConnection.java:96)
The issue seems related to issue #705
(http://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=705)
Notice how the driver is trying to connect to 127.0.0.2 although firefox is
being launched and is listening on 127.0.0.1 as per the following command:
netstat -atp
tcp 0 0 localhost.localdom:7055 *:*
LISTEN 10965/firefox
and
netstat -atnp
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:7055 0.0.0.0:*
LISTEN 10965/firefox
openSuse has the following network configuration:
# Loopback (lo) configuration
IPADDR=127.0.0.1
NETMASK=255.0.0.0
NETWORK=127.0.0.0
BROADCAST=127.255.255.255
IPADDR_2=127.0.0.2/8
and the /etc/hosts file is the following
# Syntax:
# IP-Address Full-Qualified-Hostname Short-Hostname
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
# special IPv6 addresses
::1 localhost ipv6-localhost ipv6-loopback
fe00::0 ipv6-localnet
ff00::0 ipv6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ipv6-allnodes
ff02::2 ipv6-allrouters
ff02::3 ipv6-allhosts
127.0.0.1 mandrax.mm.waw.pl mandrax
If the file looks suspicious because of the last line, I have tried when it
was removed as well with no luck.
<host localhost> returns 127.0.0.1
<dig localhost> returns:
localhost. 655360 IN A 127.0.0.1
Setting -Dsun.net.spi.nameservice.provider.1=dns,sun
-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true makes no difference
Running <java -classpath selenium-java-2.0b1.jar
org.openqa.selenium.networkutils.NetworkUtils> returns
wlan0
address.getHostName() = 192.168.37.21
address.getHostAddress() = 192.168.37.21
address.isLoopbackAddress() = false
lo
address.getHostName() = 127.0.0.2
address.getHostAddress() = 127.0.0.2
address.isLoopbackAddress() = true
address.getHostName() = localhost.localdomain
address.getHostAddress() = 127.0.0.1
address.isLoopbackAddress() = true
Loopback interface LO:
lo
address.getHostName() = 127.0.0.2
address.getHostAddress() = 127.0.0.2
address.isLoopbackAddress() = true
address.getHostName() = localhost.localdomain
address.getHostAddress() = 127.0.0.1
address.isLoopbackAddress() = true
After changing the lo configuration to exclude the alternative IP address
the command returns:
wlan0
address.getHostName() = 192.168.37.21
address.getHostAddress() = 192.168.37.21
address.isLoopbackAddress() = false
lo
address.getHostName() = localhost.localdomain
address.getHostAddress() = 127.0.0.1
address.isLoopbackAddress() = true
Loopback interface LO:
lo
address.getHostName() = localhost.localdomain
address.getHostAddress() = 127.0.0.1
address.isLoopbackAddress() = true
and all works fine. However, I would expect it all to work in the first
case as well.

I believe I have a fix for the issue - but not having an OpenSuse machine
at hand, I ask the reporter to use the attached jar file for running his
tests and reporting if they work.

Unfortunately the attached jar doesn't seem to contain the
org.openqa.selenium.networkutils.NetworkUtils class. Has it been moved
elsewhere? I can make an attempt at running the tests with this jar though.

I'm marking this issues as fixed as of r12004. Please feel free to reopen
if it does not work as expected, and please include the output of "java
-classpath selenium-java-2.0b3.jar org.openqa.selenium.net.NetworkUtils"

Digging around in some linux docs, it seems like the preferred binding port
should be the last added, whatever that means in practice. I also see
indications that this can be overridden in distro-specific routing tables
(and set by the administrator).
It would seem by the current data that we might have to go with the
loopback address that has hostName.startsWith("localhost") if the strategy
in r12004 does not work. (r12004 selects the last loopback address in the
list)

I'm using Maven, and selenium - and I tried (unsuccessfully) to load an
extension with a new profile. Now, after removing the profile creation
code, etc., every time I try to use FirefoxDriver - get this error:
org.openqa.selenium.firefox.NotConnectedException: Unable to connect to
host 127.0.0.1 on port 7055 after 45000 ms. Firefox console output:

I've tried delete the default profiles to no avail. I'm wondering if I
should just totally remove and re-install FF - or if its something that I
did?

I was also getting the message:
org.openqa.selenium.firefox.NotConnectedException: Unable to connect to
host 127.0.0.1 on port 7055 after 45000 ms.
....
and after some digging found that I had 2 different versions of selenium in
my path. After removing the old version, the problem went away
