[Johny White]

Hi all! I have the same problem when launching Firefox. After this message, another window appears: the provided browser was not found.

my $PATH=/home/user/.local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin:/snap/bin

the firefox binary located at : /usr/bin/firefox , /bin/firefox, snap/bin/firefox

OS: Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS
--------------------------------------------
Java version : openjdk 17.0.5 2022-10-18
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 17.0.5+8-Ubuntu-2ubuntu122.04)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 17.0.5+8-Ubuntu-2ubuntu122.04, mixed mode, sharing)
--------------------------------------------------------
ZAP: 2.12.0
selenium addon version : selenium 15.11.0
Quickstrat: 35.0.0

I don't know how to see the version of the webdrivers, but they come with the app folder. All addons have been updated.

I start the zap through the icon, but also tried to start from cmd . Zap is located in the /opt/zaproxy/
------------------------------------------------
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root zap.sh

I tried deleting the webdriver folder and restarting the zap - it did not help.

firefox root profile directory:
/home/$user/snap/firefox/common/.mozilla/firefox/profile.default

firefox local profile directory:
/home/$user/snap/firefox/common/.cache/mozilla/firefox/profile.default

And ZAP logs:

This is a problem related to snap, there's a workaround:
https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases/tag/v0.32.0

You would have to define TMPDIR to a location that both firefox and
geckodriver can write to.

Best regards.

[Johny White]

It's strange, but it still doesn't work for me.

$ TMPDIR=$HOME/tmp geckodriver --profile-root=~/tmp
/snap/firefox/2356/usr/lib/firefox/geckodriver: error: Unable to write to temporary directory; consider --profile-root with a writeable directory
geckodriver 0.32.0 ( 2023-02-14)
WebDriver implementation for Firefox

Also tried:

$ export TMPDIR=$HOME/tmp geckodriver

But ZAP still keeps giving the error

Also tried other user directories, but no luck

https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/issues/2010 The last comment suggests that not only I have problems with the gecodriver

Did you ensure that the tmp directory you created as the required
permissions for geckodriver and Firefox to write to it?

Best regards.

[Johny White]

Like all rights are allowed

drwxrwxrwx  2 user user  tmp

when I specify the full path or through the environment variable that I set earlier, the following is launched:
$geckodriver --profile-root=$TMPDIR

1676629932214    geckodriver    INFO    Listening on 127.0.0.1:4444

Should firefox be launched in ZAP now? Just an error also says that the profile was not found.

I will attach a screenshot of the setting in ZAP, at which it says that the profile was not found

The logs says:
Driver info: driver.version: FirefoxDriver
remote stacktrace:
org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: Process unexpectedly closed with status 1

But when I try to specify a local gecodriver, the "Profile not found" error disappears, but it says that the browser cannot be found, although I tried to manually point to the local browser along the path /usr/bin/firefox

After the above setup, the logs write:

Driver info: driver.version: FirefoxDriver
remote stacktrace:

org.openqa.selenium.SessionNotCreatedException: Failed to start browser /usr/bin/firefox: no such file or directory


After the above setup, the logs wite:

Driver info: driver.version: FirefoxDriver
remote stacktrace:

org.openqa.selenium.InvalidArgumentException: binary is not a Firefox executable

My firefox version in newest 109.0 (64bit) Snap for Ubuntu, canonical-002 - 1.0
