Can't use chrome driver for Selenium


You should specify the executable file path, not the directory path that contains the executable.

driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=r"C:\Chrome\chromedriver.exe")



For Linux

1. Check you have installed latest version of chrome browser-> "chromium-browser -version"
2. If not, install latest version of chrome "sudo apt-get install chromium-browser"
3. Get the appropriate version of chrome driver from http://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/index.html
4. Unzip the chromedriver.zip
5. Move the file to /usr/bin directory sudo mv chromedriver /usr/bin
6. Goto /usr/bin directory and you would need to run something like "chmod a+x chromedriver" to mark it executable.
7. finally you can execute the code.

from selenium import webdriverdriver = webdriver.Chrome()driver.get("http://www.google.com")display.stop()


For windows

Download webdriver from:

http://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/2.9/chromedriver_win32.zip

Paste the chromedriver.exe file in "C:\Python27\Scripts" Folder.

This should work now.

from selenium import webdriverdriver = webdriver.Chrome()
