HI,

I am having an issue with opening our site in chrome.We are using latest Chrome Brwoser,Chromedriver and standalone server.But when I am trying to open the said URL in remote server using Chrome it is returning blank page.But correct page is displayed If I am trying to open a site like "google.com".

Please advice if there is anything I can do to fix this,

This is the error message I am getting when I am trying to run the test.

I think the platform should be "Windows XP" [1]

This did not make it more clear unfortunately. But I could guess that this.baseURL does not include protocol type. (http://yourWebStite or https:// or else).

Yes, seems like the issue, it was resolved for me by updating the ChromeDriver version and also Chrome Browser must be the latest.
