You are using an unsupported command-line flag: --ignore-certificate-errors

[Austin France]

Well, my tests have started failing in chrome 35 because they measure element sizes and positions which is now being messed up because chrome now insists on putting up this warning.

I can't see where this option is being set. the only thing that matches in my project is the chromedriver binary.

I need to either:-

- be able to unset this option when starting chrome

- be able to dismiss the warning programatically before I continue with my tests

- add another flag that will suppress the warning

Looking for some pointers / suggestions on where to start looking.

Thanks

I'm getting this same issue with chrome 35 as well.

if I access the same website manually using chrome on my local machine this warning does not appear.

however if  I launch the website using chrome via RemoteWebdriver, (node on the same local machine) then the  warning appears.

The website is an "https" website.

I can't see where this option is being set.

I don't have any command line switches in my DesiredCapabilities configuration for Chrome.

Any pointer will be welcome.

How does your DesiredCapabilities instantiation look like ?

What version of WebDriver are you using ?

I think WebDriver is automatically doing this behind the scenes. Are you sure you are also on the latest version of the ChromeDriver binary ?

It would be good if you could please help add a bit more contextual information around the problem.

Thanks & Regards

Hi All,

Even i am facing the similar error when try to luanch with chome with some swictches:

here i am describing my problem:

I am trying to automate a WebRTC (Real Time Communication) Application ,designed on HTML5 and it runs on Chrome browser .
In this application i need to access and capture the input from the Microphone or Camera from web application.

When i click on capture button, chrome is showing info bar(a kind of popup alert) with “allow” and “deny” options., Since this info bar i cannot handle with Selenium web driver.

After doing some research i came to know that, If i manually launch chrome browser from command line with a switch “–use-fake-ui-for-media-stream” chrome is allowing to access the camera without info bar.

Example: C:\Users\user>start chrome –use-fake-ui-for-media-stream

 

But if try the same with simple web driver script i am still getting the info bar with same allow and deny options how to suppress this info bar as it worked manual chrome browser launch from command line? :
here is my code:

import java.io.IOException;
import java.net.URL;
import java.util.Arrays;
import org.openqa.selenium.By;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.DesiredCapabilities;
import org.openqa.selenium.remote.RemoteWebDriver;
public class UseChromeSwitch {
public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
DesiredCapabilities capabilities = DesiredCapabilities.chrome();
capabilities.setCapability(“chrome.switches”,Arrays.asList(“use-fake-ui-for-media-stream”));;
RemoteWebDriver driver1 = new RemoteWebDriver(new URL(“http://127.0.0.1:4444/wd/hub”), capabilities);
driver1.get(“http://www.html5rocks.com/en/tutorials/getusermedia/intro/”);
driver1.findElement(By.id(“capture-button”)).click();
}
}

Note Before running above code you need to run the from command line:
java -Dwebdriver.chrome.driver=”C:\chromedriver.exe” -jar “C:\selenium-server-standalone-2.41.0.jar”

Note: Please try this on laptop which has built-in camera otherwise you cannot access the camera.

Thanks,
Rajendra

So this definitely looks like a problem with the chromedriver binary. When I enabled logs and ran a simple test, I noticed the following:

0.566][INFO]: Launching chrome: /Applications/Google Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google Chrome --disable-background-networking --disable-client-side-phishing-detection --disable-component-update --disable-default-apps --disable-hang-monitor --disable-prompt-on-repost --disable-sync --disable-web-resources --enable-logging --ignore-certificate-errors --load-extension=/var/folders/z0/c631_ql16cbbjcq975xc2fch38xdjj/T/.org.chromium.Chromium.eCTDf9/internal --logging-level=1 --metrics-recording-only --no-first-run --password-store=basic --remote-debugging-port=12750 --safebrowsing-disable-auto-update --safebrowsing-disable-download-protection --use-mock-keychain --user-data-dir=/var/folders/z0/c

I see that this issue dates backs to 2014 and still I have a hard time to find a satisfactory solution in different forums.

Does anybody knows how to get run chrome with selenium 3 ?

I am getting the error You are using an unsupported command-line flag: --ignore-certificate-errors

I have tried this piece of code withour success

ChromeOptions chrome = new ChromeOptions();

chrome.addArguments("test-type");

capabilities.setCapability(ChromeOptions.CAPABILITY, chrome);

WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(chrome);

Thanks
