Upgrading to selenium/standalone-chrome:127.0 Gives 'DevToolsActivePort file doesn't exist' and cannot start chrome

[EuclidHeron]

Hi,

Apologies if I am not asking in the right forums; I did my research and it seems like the issue was seen before ('DevToolsActivePort file doesn't exist'), but not when upgrading from standalone-chrome 126.0 to 127.0 .

I have the following docker file and everything works fine (I can make calls to websites, etc) with with 126.0 using headless=new . But when I upgrade to 127.0 I get an error (note 'session not created: DevToolsActivePort file doesn't exist'), even when I am on the latest version of the selenium Java libraries (4.25.0). Does anyone know a solution or how to diagnose? Error is:

```

```

I am already using:

```
chromeOptions.addArguments("--headless=new");

 arguments.add("disable-infobars");
 arguments.add("--disable-gpu");
 arguments.add("--no-sandbox");
 arguments.add("--incognito");
 arguments.add("--disable-application-cache");
 arguments.add("--disable-dev-shm-usage");
```

My Dockerfile is:
```

I was able to get it working with the following. There were two main issues:
1) I thought I was using al2023 (Amazon Linux 2023) but I was using AL2
2) I needed to add some more dependencies
