There is an exception issue which i am facing running selenium webdriver

[Sanchit Jalan]

I am facing an exception called  java.lang.IllegalStateException while running selenium webdriver gecko using java in eclipse ide. I have been struggling with this since for the past 5hrs.
Selenium java jar files             : 3.8.1
Mozilla Gecko Driver              :  0.19.0 (http://www.seleniumhq.org/download/)    
Browser                                 : Mozilla 57.0.1 (64-bit)
OS                                        : Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
Using Latest Eclipse IDE

My Code is
package newpackage;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

public class Myclass {

   
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver","/home/sanchit/geckodriver.exe");
        WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(); // Launches Firefox Browser with blank url
        driver.get("https://www.google.com"); // Navigates to the specified URL
        String Title = driver.getTitle();
        System.out.println(Title);
        driver.close(); // Closes the Browser
    }
}

I am facing an exception called  java.lang.IllegalStateException. The exception stack is :
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalStateException: The driver executable does not exist: /home/sanchit/geckodriver.exe

On ubuntu, there’s no file extensions. So you might want to drop the “.exe” in your System.setProperty() and try again.

 

Alternatively I would suggest that you merely have the geckodriver available as part of your PATH variable, so that you can invoke it directly from the command line terminal. Once you have that working, your test should work fine.

 

Thanks & Regards

Krishnan Mahadevan Sir, thanks for the reply.
Sir currently I am facing the issue that after running the below code, browser is opened but url is unable to open.  SIr, I also want to know, what setting should i do so that i can see the trace level log for the gecko driver.

My code is

package newpackage;

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;

public class Myclass {

  
    public static void main(String[] args) {

        System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver","/home/sanchit/eclipse-workspace/geckodriver");

        WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver(); // Launches Firefox Browser with blank url
        driver.get("https://www.google.com"); // Navigates to the specified URL
        String Title = driver.getTitle();
        System.out.println(Title);
        driver.close(); // Closes the Browser
    }
}

Sanchit,

 

Am not quite convinced that you are sharing the proper code.

The code you shared and the exception stacktrace are completely unrelated. The stacktrace seems to indicate that you are forcing Selenium to use the legacy protocol of working with firefox plugin.

 

Am guessing that somewhere you are passing in the JVM argument: 

 

-Dwebdriver.firefox.marionette = false

 

 

When I ran your test code, I noticed the following console logs.

i too initially faced similar kind of challenges with firefox browser.

Option # 1  - download previous version of selenium and gecho driver

Option # 2  - revert back firefox version to 46 or 48

Option # 3 - it's a work around use chrome browser.

hope it might helps...

Krishnan Mahadevan Sir,

Sir, I agree the mismatch of test code and error. Actually there was something wrong related in my project workspace which I realised when I had removed the test code and just coded to print "hello world" and again resulted in showing the same stack trace as with the original code, which was completely unexpected.

I dereference all the selenium-java jar files from my project, then checked the working of code printing on console and it worked. Then again i added those jar in my project and ran the original test code, it showed the expected result with below log.

Sir, thanks a lot for the effort you put in for helping me. Finally seeing my test code run after 6 days, made me very happy. If i will encounter any further problem in testing, I will seek your help sir.

Thank you.

Sanchit Jalan
