[🐛 Bug]: aarch64 is trying to use linux64 geckodriver

ZiTAL commented 1 year ago

What happened?

I installed selenium by pip, installed firefox by apt, installed geckodriver downloading the aarch64 version. I created the sym links for firefox and geckodriver to use with PATH. I tried to exec a simple script to use headless firefox, but selenium is trying to use linux64 version instead of aarch64.

I tried to put the aarch64 geckodriver in the linux64 folder but I get another error too. Executing the geckodriver command, looks like is working:

1696334921102   geckodriver INFO    Listening on 127.0.0.1:4444

How can we reproduce the issue?

#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

from selenium                           import webdriver
from webdriver_manager.firefox          import GeckoDriverManager
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.options import Options
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.service import Service

options                 = Options()
options.headless        = True
service                 = Service(executable_path=GeckoDriverManager().install())
driver                  = webdriver.Firefox(service=service, options=options)

driver.get("https://www.google.com")
print("Headless Firefox Initialized")
driver.quit()

Relevant log output

Changing the geckodriver from linux64 to aarch64:

This no longer does anything: options.headless = True, you need to add -headless as an argument.
Selenium does not maintain webdriver_manager, so we cannot fix any related issues.

The Selenium suggestions are:

Download manually and use the service class with a reference to it similar to what you have above
Build a custom install of Selenium Manager and try to use that instead: https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/issues/12651#issuecomment-1734785707
