Srilakshmi,

You are using a very old version of Webdriver [ 2.44.0].

I would suggest that you please upgrade to using 2.53.0 and try again.

If it still doesn't work you would need to tell us what version of Firefox are you working with as well.

Thanks & Regards

Downgrade your Firefox to one of the following versions:

v2.44.0
	=======
	* Supports native events for Firefox versions 33 (current), 32 (immediately
	previous release), 31 (current ESR), and 24 (immediately previous ESR).

You can get previous Firefox version from the Mozilla FTP Site

When it comes to an error message there is no such thing as 'almost the same'. This is a human concept and does not apply to error messages.

The System.TypeLoadException is a C# error. I suspect the ChromeDriver you are running is written in C# and you are on a Windows computer. It was attempting to load a system type called OpenQA.Selenium.IllegalLocatorException. The thing which jumps out to me is the IllegalLocatorException. This makes me think you have an illegal locator. When your code attempts to use this illegal locator it is throwing an exception. Solution: fix your locator.
