OpenQA.Selenium.WebDriverException : No response from server for url
http://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=3719

When using ChromeDriver via ChromeDriverService and RemoteDriver
and run multiple tests. They _sometimes_ fail with the exception above.

The tests run OK when I start individual ChromeDriver per each unit test.

The stack is as follows:

I'm still seeing this with latest chromedriver, grid, and selenium.

Running tests on the local computer through chromedriver works great, but I
run tests through a grid(on the local machine) the failure rate goes way up
- lots of these No Response exceptions.

http://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=3719

I see this error with windows 2003 R2, firefox 13, using webdriver.
it just started occuring recently, for me.

Also with the most recent chromedriver this happens frequently as well
on windows XP sp3 with chrome 20, 21, or 22. i resorted to disabling the
updates for chrome to keep the chrome 20 driver able to work.

I've read elsewhere that it may be a request limit (for proxy servers
having too low of a conection limit), that causes the server to return null
and crash with the "No response from server for url" exception.

The "No response from server for url" exception seems to occur whenever a
request by the server returns null or an empty response at which point the
server crashes.

It Might be a load related issue, as in when the load of requests is too
much for the drivers to carry, then they throw the "No response from
server for url" exception

OpenQA.Selenium.WebDriverException : No response from server for url

http://localhost:7057/hub/session/283a5d58-82dd-483b-a3ef-0ff3ee37841c/element

Am on WebDriver C# bindings 2.25.1 Win 7,FF 14/13

They all worked fine until early today nothing has been changed.
However if i rerun them again they work alright a few times.

Are we going to get a fix for this in future releases ?

Hi, I'm solved it
if there are no timeout (based on machine speed - usually thread.sleep(250)
works fine) between interactions with driver - driver couldn't throw event
from browser to test - and you gets error.

And watch at some "Explicit Implicit Wait Webdriver" articles.

We are seeing the same issue intermittently on Chrome and Firefox.
Unfortunately, it is not feasible for us to add sleeps between each
interaction with the WebDriver given how widely it is used.

Is there any traction on when this issue will be solved?

What, exactly, would you like the .NET bindings to do? That's not a
question asked to be flippant, it's a genuine question. Before you answer,
though, please see

What would be quite helpful in many cases is to add the raised WebException
as an InnerException in the WebDriverException you throw. This will allow
clients to investigate the underlying causes and the perform their own
retry logic if appropriate.

I don't know if this will help, but I just starting seeing this issue this
week. My intern started seeing it last week. At first I thought it was just
his machine, as I was not seeing it. Yesterday it started showing on my
machine.

I built a testing app around the WebDriver that tests a web based Learning
Management System for our regression testing. As far as having a
reproducible scenario, I might have one. I am seeing this in only one
portion of my test (e.g. clicking a link to access the work submission page
of an Activity created by the testing app) and it happens pretty regularly.
It's on a Click() and the click happens, but WebDriver is stuck in the code
on the Click event, as if it's waiting for a something. The testing app
won't get past the third (of five) activities for the first (of four)
students without throwing an exception. This is the only place that I see
it and it is in probably the most in depth tests that I have made for the
app. The tests in all my other suites pretty much pass as I would expect
them to.

I just upgraded from VS2010 to VS2012 hoping that might help. It didn't.

Using Visual C# 2012 Premium, WebDriver 2.21, Firefox 18, Chrome
23.0.1271.97

I would be willing to help in any way that I can

To those who've run into this issue, please update to 2.30.0 of the .NET
bindings when they are available. I've made a change to the .NET
bindings[1] that should allow us to have more diagnostic information in the
exception that is thrown when this happens. Please note that this change
I've added *WILL* *NOT* *FIX* the problem. It is only intended to provide
more details so that we might be able to narrow down root causes to the
issue a little more cleanly.

I quit seeing this error all together when I explicitly set the command
timeout via the driver constructor. Looking at your change, it looks like
this is the information you’re logging now.

I'll put some tests together using a default constructor on the drivers to
see if I can get this exception to be thrown.

Explicit set of timeout in driver constructor didn't help.

I am getting this error as well in the firefox driver. It seems to be
caused by one of my sites waiting on a resource and never receiving it. So
while it waits for that page to give it it's resource, the other selenium
calls after that fail with this error. Eventually it gives up on that
resource and all the calls that failed run in rapid succession in firefox
even though they already reported as failing. I have a small test
application that seems to reproduce the error if you are interested. I am
on the latest version of selenium.

Okay, this issue in general does not manifest itself in IE, or so it seems
from the comments. I'd like people to try with Firefox and Chrome, and
the .NET bindings 2.40.0 (will be the next release at the time of this
writing) or later, and see if this is still happening.

I've seen fewer reports of this happening in Chrome since 2.35.0, so I need
to know if this is still an issue with the .NET bindings and a recent
chromedriver.exe.

2.40.0 may have a fix for at least one of the issues that may cause this in
Firefox.

If all you have to contribute to this issue is a "me too" or "when will
this be fixed" comment, at the very least, please provide the version of
the .NET bindings and which version of which browser you're encountering
the issue in. It would be more helpful in these cases to also have the
exact text of the exception, since the change mentioned in comment #33
gives more detail about what is actually happening.

Experiencing this issue in a 100% reproducible fashion with 2.38.0 and
2.39.0 against FF 27.0

OpenQA.Selenium.WebDriverException: The HTTP request to the remote
WebDriver server for URL

http://localhost:7055/hub/session/1a5eb28a-c9b2-4b18-a0ce-79291d66f1b1/element/%7B7ba38b04-f9f2-4c5c-8c40-93b5238d0306%7D/click
timed out after 60 seconds. ---> System.Net.WebException: The operation has
timed out


One of the failing tests basically looked like this (locking up when
clicking the breadcrumb on the 4th line):
VerifyBreadcrumbNavigation(detailPage, BreadcrumbType.Category4, "Cats");
VerifyBreadcrumbNavigation(null, BreadcrumbType.Category3, "Quadrupeds");
VerifyBreadcrumbNavigation(null, BreadcrumbType.Category2, "Mammals");
VerifyBreadcrumbNavigation(null, BreadcrumbType.Category1, "Pets");
VerifyBreadcrumbNavigation(null, BreadcrumbType.Supplier, "Addimplower
Holdings");

I tried reordering the breadcrumb navigations and no matter what I did it
would always fail on the 4th attempt no matter which breadcrumb it was
doing at the time. I also added longish sleeps (2000ms) all over the place
thinking that maybe the driver couldn't handle so many navigation attempts.
This also did nothing to mitigate the problem.

Just reporting back that I tried Selenium WebDriver bindings 2.40.0 and
this solved the problem for me - thank you. Looking at the change log,
there is a commit from 1/31/2014 to remove console logging redirection:

"No longer redirecting console output for Firefox in .NET bindings."

Which is the workaround I used in
http://stackoverflow.com/a/20181669/746754. So, it all makes sense.
Anyways, this no longer happens for me, hopefully it will solve it for

OpenQA.Selenium.WebDriverException : No response from server for url

I have to same problem 100 times every day at the random places of code.

For example show last errors:

OpenQA.Selenium.WebDriverException: The HTTP request to the remote
WebDriver server for URL

http://localhost:55481/session/5b75e908adaab7d93efc61913134a984/execute

timed out after 60 seconds.

Using .net 3.5 and 4.0. Compile as x64 or x86. No better difference :(

WebDriver v2.40 and much versions previous
ChromeDriver.exe v2.9 and all previous
Chrome v33 and much versions previous

Every new release does not fix it :(

http://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=3719

The issue is reproducing both for Selenium 2.40 java and c# , just tested
with java-maven for my app and the same error is throwed on Firrefox and
Chrome, for IE it works with no problem. The element which is causing me
this problem is a button that when you click then a new Window is opened...
Any ideea why is this happening? is Selenium Webdriver bug " The HTTP
request to the remote WebDriver server for URL "?

Hello.
I have same issue with WebDriver 2.40 and FF

http://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=3719

The cause of this error was comming from the SUT ( my System Under Test
) , my application , it is not a Selenium Bug.
The issue is like this : in my application when I reach to that point of
crashing selenium , actually it is a file that is not received in the HTTP
Response/ request, I have found this by investigating with Fiddler tool .
In conclusion in my application in the Http response there is a missing
file that is not found , and Selenium does throw the error : " No response
from server " which is valid error. Actually Selenium helped my found a
very "HardToFOund" bug.
So in conclusing the Error is corect , It is not a Selenium Problem.
You can do the same actions and check with Fiddler is the responses are
Corekt ( 200 Response status ) , or bad (404 response statuses .
For more details , feel free to contact me.

http://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=3719

But in most cases that his happens on some url, if the server returned 404
isn't the entire page shouldn't load?

Is the resource u got 404 error on, is the exact url you were looking for
or did you tried to navigate to a full url page and only that pic failed to
return?

there can be some specific files that come within a http response , in my
case it is an image file that is not found and it is causing
problems,althought the base response is ok , but depends on each case ,
you need to investigate with Fiddler,

I just wanted to say that, in response to post #42, this issue DOES still
occur in IE. I am using the latest version (2.41.0) of Selenium for C# and
the 32-bit IEDriverServer, and I have found a case in which clicking on a
certain button produces this error ("The HTTP request to the remote
WebDriver server for URL [...] timed out after 60 seconds") 100% of the
time. Unfortunately, this occurs in a web application that isn't publicly
available, but I am currently attempting to create a minimal test case to
share publicly. In the meantime, I at least wanted to point out that the
problem still occurs in IE.

#55 Hi Daniel,
have you managed to make the test case to reproduce this issue? I am
having this issue in both FF & Chrome (everything in a latest version -
selenium server 2.41, C# binding 2.41, ChromeDriver 2.10, latest version of
chrome & ff). I'd be very grateful if you could post the test case to
Selenium devs to work this out.

Thanks,
Marcel

Marcel,

Sorry, I was never able to reproduce the issue, despite my best efforts.
This issue came up while I was working with a previous employer;
unfortunately, I no longer have access to that web application. All I can
say is, I suspect that it either had something to do with Classic ASP (the
back end; I don't know much about ASP...), or, more likely, due to the fact
that we were clicking on an element which was located in a frame (and the
element had a Javascript "onclick" attribute). I'm sorry that I was unable
to come up with a test case; I hope that someone else succeeds and the
issue gets resolved.

in chromedriver.log from relative times to absolute times)

Different times of call Title method:
By my code at 16.06.2014 00:22:35,030
by chormedriver at 16.06.2014 00:24:40,549


And
Why I dont get exception in navigate method? duration is 3 minutes, by
chromedriver.log

CODE:

private static void TryGoToUrl(IWebDriver driver, string url)
{
Trace trace = new Trace(); // Start trace
try
{
trace.Append("Navigate");
driver.Navigate().GoToUrl(url);

trace.Append("Title");
string title = driver.Title;

trace.Append("Check results");
// TODO
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
trace.Append("End trace");
throw new Exception(String.Format("Exception when TryGoToUrl

I'm running my own tests on a virtual machine using Hyper-V.

The program crashes here all the time:

OpenQA.Selenium.Proxy proxy = new Proxy();
proxy.HttpProxy = "127.0.0.1:8877";

var options = new ChromeOptions();
options.Proxy = proxy;

return new ChromeDriver(options);

and the output is this:
OpenQA.Selenium.WebDriverException occurred

Okay I ran the same tests on another VM and they worked - I'm assuming
there's an issue with the firewall here, specifically there's a popup
window that comes up right after you run the tests for the very very first
time, I can't remember what it said now though, something about vstest...

OpenQA.Selenium.WebDriverException : No response from server for url

https://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=3719

Hi all,

I'm also getting this error from time to time. I was not able to find out
where the problem is but what I can tell for sure is that once we encounter
this we can't run tests against the nodes unless we restart them.

We built a library for testing, basically a wrapper over Selenium with some
other functionality the we found useful. We also open sourced the library:
https://github.com/AutoScout24/SeleniumTestLibrary

As I said, once the problem appears we must restart the java processes that
start the nodes. What is also interesting is that the problem appears while
tests are running. That is, from 200 tests, let's say, some will pass and
some will not.

As the nodes are useless once the problem appears and after some googleing,
I suspect that in my case there's a lock happening somewhere. The library
that we are using is reading the output file and almost instantly it
continues with the next test suite, so basically new request that can be on
the same URI as the last one used. The last change that we did and we are
currently testing, is to continue with the testing only after we are done
reading the output file. We don't know yet whether this fixed our problem
or not. Test is in progress.

Do you have a similar scenario? Can you reuse, retry the request once the
problem appears or not? Maybe this is relevant, maybe not, but at least we
know something more.

Hope this helps!
Mario.

Hi,

I found the following facts in my testing. If I run the test and the
browser window is visible, i.e. from the IDE or using a batch file it works
fine. As soon as I run the task in automated mode through a task then the
test will not work. This happens using either FF or Chrome drivers. You can
verify this by trying this page
https://www.horizonutilities.com/pages/login.aspx

Using the chrome driver i get the following error. Chrome doesn't even load
this page
Exeption: WebDriver The HTTP request to the remote WebDriver server for URL
http://localhost:65315/session/337172c9e02776077b2025d9aa16cf80/element
timed out after 60 seconds. ---------------

With the FF driver I get the following error
Exeption: WebDriver [JavaScript
Error: "a.document.getElementsByTagName(...)[0].getButton is not a
function"
{file: "file:///C:/Users/electrocrawler/AppData/Local/Temp/anonymous.6b519c69a3894ef9af8de966e29bc542.webdriver-profile/extensions/fxdr...@googlecode.com/components/command-processor.js"
line: 8877}]'[JavaScript

line: 8877}]' when calling method: [nsICommandProcessor::execute]
---------------


Again, this error will only happen when the test runs hidden, i.e. the
browser window not visible, otherwise it works fine.

I run the hidden tasks using Windows Task Manager with the option to 'run
the task whether the user is logged on or not'. It fails every time with
this option. Switching to 'run only when the user is logged on', works fine
every time.

Hi,

I can confirm Daniel's findings.
When I start the Selenium clients in a background process I get the error
mentioned. If the processes run in foreground everything is fine.

I also find out that version 36 from Chrome doesn't have this problem and
so I downgraded to this version. Now the tests run fine but not with the
latest version.

My workaround is to fire up a chromedriver.exe in session and call it using
remotedriver on http://localhost:9515

This will work even if the user has disconnected from the remote terminal
(but the session is still active).

Closing the issue as it is related to old version of chromedriver.
If the issue is still actual raise an issue on the chromedriver tracker [1]
and profice a reproduction case (if possible)

Actually this is happening with the latest chrome or firefox driver
distributed with Selenium 2.43.

For example this page will not open when running selenium in a background
thread.
http://www.blueskysailing.org/comprehensive-weather

also this one

as explain my my earlier post.

Please keep this issue open and hopefully a resolution can be found

chromedriver is a separate project that has its own tracker (as stated
above), please report the issue there.

Also you should not expect a browser to work in headless environment (with
no GUI).

This issue affects both chrome driver and firefox driver. Out of 10 or so
automated testing sites that I support, 8 of them work great when running
in a background task, but the 2 sites I mention, will not. I am unable to
understand why these site will only work in an active session while the
rest will work well either way.

Write to the browser's issue tracker and request them to implement ability
to work without GUI :)

Or use headless browsers like PhantomJS. Or use xvfb to provide GUI. Or
setup a virtual lab with real GUI sessions to run browsers in.

If it can help people here.

I had the same problem with error messages like :
error: The HTTP request to the remote WebDriver server for URL
http://localhost:62966/session/47a49deeba88be7092a9c435bd4c903e/window/current/maximize

timed out after 60 seconds

I had them only with chromeDriver (2.12) and on my CI server (Windows
2012R2, CruiseControl.NET used as a Windows Service).
If I ran the tests locally I had no problem. I had no problem on the CI
Server with a graphic User Session too.

I think this is caused by request being sent too early to the driver, the
driver does not catch them and they are lost for everyone.

I work around this issue by using the ChromeDriverService and
RemoteWebDriver. Either instanciated outside the code or within the code
before any test is run works fine. You'll see examples at the end of
https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/getting-started

Hope this helps.

To elaborate.

Remote (RDP) on to your server.

Execute ChromeDriver.exe, it will open on port 9515.

Run your tests with Nunit (jenkins / teamcity agent)

The tests will open and run as long as there is a RDP session connected.

Its definitely not a glamorous solution, but it resolves the issue.

In single test there is no exception.
In series of tests it throws the exception in 5th test (~ 2 minutes from

Each test have a loop in webDriver.FindElements() with ~500 IWebElement and
call ((IJavaScriptExecutor)webDriver).ExecuteScript for part of them

Hi All

I've been getting the same issue. I tried a suggested solution here to run
RemoteWebDriver pointing to an Uri. My client application couldn't connect
to the chromedriver.exe I've started and fails with...

"socket could not be performed because the system lacked sufficient buffer
space or because a queue was full"

This seems to be an issue with TCP/IP port exhaustion or am I barking up
the wrong tree?
