If you don't use capabilities
, would it start normally?
The following answer might not be related to your problem. Debug yours first, then try it if you don't have other solutions.
Chrome have been updating frequently recently and you need to find a ChromeDriver version compatible with it.
The latest Chrome release is 2.8
, according to release note, it should support Chrome 30-33
.
However, from this question, I believe the recent Chrome updates broke it again.
Chrome 32.0.1700.72 m
should work fine with ChromeDriver 2.8
, but 32.0.1700.76
and 32.0.1700.77
won't.
So try two solutions at the time of writing.
- Downgrade your Chrome to
32.0.1700.72 m
or even lower. - Since ChromeDriver
2.8
is already the latest, all you can do is to wait for a new version to come out, which should be on its way.
