[19:03] <foo> Trying to get Selenium working on Ubuntu with Chrome driver. I get this: (unknown error: DevToolsActivePort file doesn't exist) (The process started from chrome location /usr/bin/chromium-browser is no longer running, so ChromeDriver is assuming that Chrome has crashed.) - I've spent hours trying to get this to work with no solution, have tried various suggestions via Google. Any two cents?
[19:22] <foo> Trying to install chrome on my ububtu server. Per this: https://askubuntu.com/questions/245041/how-do-i-install-chrome-on-a-server - how do I find my arch? uname -a shows x86_64 - I believe I should be fine with $ sudo sh -c 'echo "deb [arch=amd64] http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google.list' ?
[19:25] <foo> Looks like yes
[20:49] <tomreyn> foo: chromium and chrome are separate things, right?
[20:50] <tomreyn> foo: also be aware that chromium is nowadays only provided as a snap package by ubuntu (other apt based distributions exist)
[20:51] <tomreyn> i suspect that the chromium snap would not provide anything at the /usr/bin/chromium-browser location (have not verified this), but you could probably set a symlink.
