Not able to run scripts in chrome browser

[gaurav garg]

Hi,

I am trying to launch chrome browser using selenium webdriver but I am getting error while doing so.Not able to know the reason as I have downloaded latest Chrome driver 2.15 and given its correct path.I am using 64-bit Windows 7 OS.

Please suggest a solution of this.

Here is my code

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;

import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver;

public class chrome_test {

public static void main(String[] args) {

System.setProperty("WebDriver.chrome.driver","G:\\chromedriver.exe");

WebDriver driver =new ChromeDriver();

}

}

And getting below exception everytime I run this script

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalStateException: The path to the driver executable must be set by the webdriver.chrome.driver system property; for more information, see http://code.google.com/p/selenium/wiki/ChromeDriver. The latest version can be downloaded from http://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/index.html

Thanks

Hi 

  

  It seems the path for chrome.exe is incorrect. Change the slashes( // ) and try 

Hope this helps you

Thanks,

S Bhanu Prasad.

Hi,

Try with webdriver.chrome.driver and give correct chromedriver.exe location..

Let me know, still you are facing issue..

Thank You,
Murali

Hi Bhanu and Murali,

Thanks for your reply.But I m still facing same issue after making all of your suggestions.

So please suggest me another solution regarding this.

Now my code is as below:

public class chrome_test {

public static void main(String[] args) {

System.setProperty("webDriver.chrome.driver","D:\\chromedriver.exe");

WebDriver driver =new ChromeDriver();

}

Can you suggest me certain checks on this so that I can be sure that I am not doing anything wrong here.

We cant know if the string is case-sensitive.

So please dont use webDriver.chrome.driver but instead use webdriver.chrome.driver. Try this first before further evaluating the problem.

[A R K Satyanarayana Raju]

Hi Gaurav,

'webdriver.chrome.driver' is very clear in error message. We should not use capital letters here.

public void beforeClass() {
        final String CHROME_LOCATION = "/src/testcases/chromedriver";
        System.out.println(System.

getProperty("user.dir") + CHROME_LOCATION);
        System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver",
                System.getProperty("user.dir") + CHROME_LOCATION);
        driver = new ChromeDriver();
    }

It's require chromedriver binary file not exe file.

Are you using the appropiate bit-version of the chrome driver? 

If you are using a 64bit OS then use the 64bit ChromeDriver and vice versa.

Check that.

[Krishnan Mahadevan]

@Mercious,

When it comes to Windows there is no 2 bitness flavors of chromedriver. there is only a 32bit chromedriver.

The stacktrace seems to suggest that Gaurav was perhaps working with a Windows box

Build info: version: '2.45.0', revision: '32a636c', time: '2015-03-05 22:01:35'

System info: host: 'cstechadmin', ip: '192.168.5.100', os.name: 'Windows Server 2008 R2', os.arch: 'amd64', os.version: '6.1', java.version: '1.8.0_40'

Driver info: org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver

@Gaurav,

You seem to be working with Java 8. Would that be a problem ? A quick way to find out is to try and run a test with Firefox or InternetExplorer..

Your error stack trace also seems to suggest that the chromedriver may have perhaps come up, but something crashed it after that.

So first try to spawn the chromedriver manually. You should see an output as below 

krmahadevan@MYMACHINE ~  $ chromedriver

Starting ChromeDriver 2.14.313457 (3d645c400edf2e2c500566c9aa096063e707c9cf) on port 9515

Only local connections are allowed.

[Ignore the version, I am running on an older version ]

Then try loading the URL : http://localhost:9515/status [ Here 9515 should be replaced with the actual port number on which your chromedriver is listening to ]

If you see an output as below it basically confirms the fact that your chromedriver doesnt have any issues and the issue could perhaps be in your JDK.

{"sessionId":"","status":0,"value":{"build":{"version":"alpha"},"os":{"arch":"x86_64","name":"Mac OS X","version":"10.10.3"}}}

Thanks & Regards

I see that also, there appears to only be 32 bit drivers and my Chrome is 64bit now.
