Sathya,

Can you post the exact error stack that you are seeing. How are you contacting the Virtual machine?

Thanks.

Satya,

What is the chromedriver version is that v1.0 or 2.0? if its v1.0, please upgrade it and give it a try.

Thanks

Satya,

I was looking on net for support/solution for your issue and found that may be the ChromeDriver is not bypassing the proxy settings.

Try below one :

In Internet Properties->connections->LAN settings, set 'Bypass proxy server for local addresses'?


Hope this should resolve your issue.

Thanks.

This  Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Network and Sharing Center\Internet Options\Connections\LAN settings\Bypass proxy server for local addresses  option works fine for me...

When we run our scripts from with in Eclipse IDE, 3 out of 5 times, the Chrome browser does not get invoked or take a long time to start by the script. When it fails to invoke the browser, it fails with this exception ....

The temporary but painful solution is to go to Windows TaskManager and kill the half a dozen or so, Chrome.exe processes one after another. It is observed that even when we run our script or manually running the application, the Chrome browser processes that get invoked are more like 6 or 7, not less.

Is it a Chrome Browser or Selenium issue. ? Individually, I used NOT to have this problem unlike my team member who is having this problem since a year. As soon as I upgraded Chrome Driver to 2.28 from 2.25, I started having this problem.

Just in case, please ensure your Chrome is the latest version. Chrome Driver 2.28 was updated specifically for Chrome 57. I am not saying this IS your problem - I am only saying this is worth a look.

Hi:

 

We are at Chrome Browser Version 57.0.2987.133 (64-bit)

Chrome Driver 2.28

Selenium Standalone Server 2.53.

 

I think this means I am doing fine.

 

 

 

Thanks,
