Hi everybody,
I'm posting here as a last resort hoping that you that know how webdriver works can give me me some hint to solve the following issue I've been facing with no success.
Basically I'm running Webdriver (Firefox) in a Hadoop task on a cluster on Google Compute Engine (ubuntu 12.04 machines). I believe there is a silly network setting that I miss.
What happens is that:
My code runs with no issues on these machines outside hadoop.
The same code, when run within Hadoop, fails to connect to Firefox. I'm sure Firefox is started regularly and I can telnet it on
127.0.0.1:7055.
However, I have noticed that the error message doesn't refer to the ip 127.0.0.1 but rather to the eth0 ip of the machine e.g., 10.240.194.134 and I cannot telnet this ip on 7055.
Do you have any idea of what could be happening here?
Many thanks in advance for your time.
Gio
