selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: Error forwarding the new session Empty pool-CodePudding

I m running the acceptance tests and facing the following errors in my system only, this is working fine inside my other team systems. I'm using a selenium webdriver inside my docker container, it was working fine on my PC as well but don't know why suddenly it started throwing these errors.

Error stacktrace:

CodePudding user response：

This error message...

selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: Error forwarding the new session Empty pool of VM for setup Capabilities {browserName: chrome, goog:chromeOptions: {args: [--headless, --no-sandbox, --disable-dev-shm-usage], extensions: [], prefs: {intl.accept_languages: en}}, javascriptEnabled: true, version: }

...implies that the ChromeDriver was unable to initiate/spawn a new Browsing Context i.e. google-chrome session and the version of the ChromeDriver can't be detected possibly due to the incompatibility between the version of the binaries you are using.

Solution

Ensure that:

Selenium is upgraded to current released Version 4.1.2.
ChromeDriver is updated to current ChromeDriver v98.0 level.
Chrome Browser is updated to current chrome=98 (as per chromedriver=98.0.4758.48 release notes).

The problem was docker is not getting chrome properly, so I just removed the image locally (selenium hub and node chrome) and just download then again and it works!

docker rmi {imageId}
