According to https://chromedriver.chromium.org/downloads:

> If you are using Chrome version 108, please download ChromeDriver 108.0.5359.71

Yes, agreed but when we open the updated version through the selenium it shows the Exception-Could not start a new session. Response code 500. Message: session not created: This version of ChromeDriver only supports Chrome version 101
Current browser version is 108.0.5359.95

We are facing the same issue.

C# Selenium.WebDriver.ChromeDriver doesn't support Chome browser from version: 108.0.5359.95 without headless mode

We are using nuget: Selenium.WebDriver.ChromeDriver 108.0.5359.7100 We are having issues when creating ChromeDriver since Chome browser latest version: 108.0.5359.95 We are running on windows and while debagging via VS without headless mode we get an exception when trying to create the driver: driver = new ChromeDriver(options); The exception: OpenQA.Selenium.WebDriverException: 'unknown error: Chrome failed to start: exited normally. (unknown error: DevToolsActivePort file doesn't exist) (The process started from chrome location C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe is no longer running, so ChromeDriver is assuming that Chrome has crashed.)'  

  driver = new ChromeDriver(options); Debagging via VS without headless mode Expected to work the same as it did until Chrome browser version: 108.0.5359.72

Waiting for a fix, until then we run debug in headless mode - Very hard to develop blindly.

Similar issue here. Chrome is now at version 108.0.5359.125 and the only ChromeDriver version for 108 that I can find is 108.0.5359.71. However, I get the error(s) when I try to run in headless mode. I am able to run it in normal mode.

[Luis Alberto Juárez Aguirre]

Getting the same issue starting with version 108.x. Prior versions worked as expected.

Using Windows 10 machine, with python chromedriver and selenium. 

The only way to run it is by having the "--headless" option. But that doesn't help us debugging :(

I have the same error here. Using C#, selenium and 109 version of the chrome driver

[Navi Singla]

I am also facing the same issue :

 (unknown error: DevToolsActivePort file doesn't exist)

[sathish]

Did you manage to solve the issue? I have been using python, selenium 4.8.0 & chrome 109. Perhaps we can try downgrading chrome to an older version and testing as well

Was anyone able to find a solution for this issue
