dear members,
I am using RSelenium. I have downloaded the java binary
standalone server. I am running it in my windows powershell with the following
command: java -jar selenium-server-standalone-4.0.0-alpha-2.jar
(note that the command doesn't get finished in the powershell ( the prompt
doesn't return to C"\Users\Administrator\Downloads after running the
command)).
Then I run the following in R console:
> remDr <- remoteDriver(remoteServerAddr = "localhost", port =
4444L, browserName = "chrome")
and then the following:> remDr$open
It gives me the following error:
[1] "Connecting to remote server"
Selenium message:Unable to create new service: ChromeDriverService
Build info: version: '4.0.0-alpha-2', revision: 'f148142cf8',
time: '2019-07-01T21:30:10'
System info: host: 'EC2AMAZ-1JRGETJ', ip: '172.31.9.48',
os.name: 'Windows Server 2016', os.arch: 'amd64', os.version:
'10.0', java.version: '17.0.1'
Driver info: driver.version: unknown
Error: Summary: SessionNotCreatedException
Detail: A new session could not be created.
Further Details: run errorDetails method
Please note that I'm fine with using rsDriver. What's going on? (I'm
using remoteDriver instaed of rsDriver because it should not give the "port
already in use" error.
Thanking you,
Yours sincerely,
AKSHAY M KULKARNI
