ZAP chrome headless docker

[Hammad Ali]

Hi,

I need help in starting chrome browser in headless mode, we are running in docker and have installed google-chrome-stable and chromedriver. Both are install in directory /usr/bin/ and setting chrome via python API

Enviorment

System info: os.name: 'Linux', os.arch: 'amd64', os.version: '4.14.255-311-248.529.amzn2.x86_64', java.version: '11.0.18'

Python

zap.selenium.set_option_chrome_binary_path("/usr/bin/google-chrome")

zap.selenium.set_option_chrome_driver_path("/usr/bin/chromedriver")

zap.ajaxSpider.set_option_browser_id("chrome-headless")

CHROMEDRIVER_VERSION=114.0.5735.90 CHROME_VERSION=114.0.5735.90-1

But getting this error

Caused by: org.openqa.selenium.SessionNotCreatedException: Could not start a new 

session. Response code 500. Message: unknown error: Chrome failed to start: crashed. (unknown error: DevToolsActivePort file doesn't exist) (The process started from chrome location /usr/bin/google-chrome is no longer running, so ChromeDriver is assuming that Chrome has crashed.)

Can you start Chrome in headless mode from the command line?

Cheers,

Simon

Is there something wrong with code though?

I cant see anything obvious.

But you've installed Chrome in your image.

The very first thing you need to do is to check that it works in isolation.

If you cant start it from the commandline then ZAP has no chance of doing so...

Sure thanks I will check it out and update you.

Is there a way we could set flags for chrome driver I see python zapv2 start it like this, maybe via selenium chromeOptions?

Command: [null, newSession {capabilities=[Capabilities {acceptInsecureCerts: true, browserName: chrome, goog:chromeOptions: {args: [--proxy-bypass-list=<-loopb..., --ignore-certificate-errors, --headless=new], binary: /usr/bin/google-chrome, extensions: []}, proxy: Proxy(manual, http=127.0.0....}]}]

[psiinon]

Not at the moment.

Have you confirmed Chrome starts from the command line?

What command line options do you need to add?

Cheers,

Simon
