I have this issue with selenium i can not find i textinput : it alwayes
rases this exeception: Element is not currently interactable and may not be
manipulated

Waiting.Until(driver =>(By.Id("ctl00"))); and
Waiting.Until(ExpectedConditions.ElementExists(By.Id("ctl00"))); but no
luck thanks

Selenium is finding the element - it's the Clear() command that's failing
due to the element being in an invalid state (e.g. <input readonly>).

Can't say more without a reproducible test case with HTML, CSS, and JS for
the relevant site.

We are also facing with this issue. In our case it happens from time to
time and very dificult to debug it. One more comment: this issue occures in
Jenkins. We use Selenium WebDriver 2.24.2 + Selenium GRID 2.24.2.

I am doing the following:
WebElement element = d().findElement( By.id("billing:city"));
element.clear();
element.sendKeys(city);
element.sendKeys(Keys.TAB);

in line: element.clear()

I have had this message from a input type text in chrome when
isDisplayed=false, which is basically due to some earlier part of the test
not working.

I found the problem, but I don´t now how fix it.
The problem is element.clear() but in some cases, because in other runs
smoothly.

My test was comment the line and test runs whitout problems, but in this
point my problem is a very big, because my test is multi browser then in
the some browsers runs whitout problem and the other with problem.

I am very stressed with this problem, because don't found the solution to
multibrowser.

Any comments? or any suggestions??

In my case the problem was caused by element.clear() when used with chrome
browser.

I have the same issue, my code:
WebDriverWait pageWait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 30);
pageWait.until(ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElementLocated(someLocator));
driver.findElement(by).clear();
driver.findElement(by).sendKeys(keys);

Exception in the third line, this input element is present on the page
before I do clear().

Please let me know what may cause the issue, thanks!

Issue is still present, although sporadic - occurs maybe 1 out of 10 times.
I’m using Selenium 2.47.1 (python).

In setup class:
cls.user_login = 'some...@somedomain.com'
cls.user_password = 'somepassword'
cls.user_box = driver.find_element_by_id('username')
cls.password_box = driver.find_element_by_id('password')
cls.login_button = driver.find_element_by_id('loginButton')

Test case:

@data( some data set )
@unpack
def test_invalid_login(self, username, password, msg):
self.user_box.clear()
self.user_box.send_keys(username)
self.password_box.clear()
self.password_box.send_keys(password)
self.login_button.click()
self.assertEqual(msg, self.element_loaded_return(10, By.CSS_SELECTOR,
'div[id="loginErrorMessage"] > span').text)

Error:
selenium.common.exceptions.InvalidElementStateException: Message: invalid
