Switching to Selenium 3.4.1, geckodriver 0.16.1 (0.17.0 for Linux 32)

Closes #1933

History

#1 Updated by Luke Murphey over 7 years ago

Things to try:

1) Running older libraries
2) Running 64-bit drivers

#3 Updated by Luke Murphey over 7 years ago

Downgraded to the version of Selenium (3.4.1) and the geckodrivers that Network Toolkit uses and it works.

#4 Updated by Luke Murphey over 7 years ago

I suspect that Network Toolkit was using Geckodriver 0.16.1.

Worked in search too:

#6 Updated by Luke Murphey over 7 years ago

Yeah, its 0.16.1:

  • 3.4.1/0.16.1: works
  • 3.4.3/0.16.1: didn't work
  • 3.0.1/0.11.0: didn't work
  • 3.4.3/0.17.0: didn't work
  • 3.4.1/0.18.0: didn't work

#8 Updated by Luke Murphey over 7 years ago

Going back to 3.4.1/0.16.1 and I still can't get it to work.

#10 Updated by Luke Murphey over 7 years ago

64-bit didn't help.

#11 Updated by Luke Murphey over 7 years ago

Option is to downgrade to 3.4.1/0.16.1.

#12 Updated by Luke Murphey over 7 years ago

With this approach, Linux 32-bit is using 0.17.0 while the rest are using 0.16.1 since there is no 32-bit driver for 0.16.1.

#13 Updated by Luke Murphey over 7 years ago

#14 Updated by Luke Murphey over 7 years ago

Here is my observations on the Selenium and Geckodrivers:

  • 0.18.0/*: doesn't work on anything
  • 0.17.0/*: doesn't work on Windows
  • 0.17.0/3.4.3: doesn't work on Windows
  • 0.17.0/3.4.1: works on all

  • % Done changed from 0 to 90

Just need to:

  1. Test on the servers
  2. Update deps list
  3. Update README with limitations and guidance on using Chrome instead of Firefox on Windows
