[🐛 Bug]: New version 'chrome-4.18.1-20240224-automaticDownloads' is blocking the download of files

victoria-iriusrisk commented 7 months ago

What happened?

With the latest version chrome-4.18.1-20240224-automaticDownloads, if you try to download a file with a TestCafe test, the chrome browser is blocking the automatic download of files.

How can we reproduce the issue?

Create a test with TestCafe framework to download a file (i.e. a xml file). Execute test with chrome-4.18.1-20240224-automaticDownloads browser.

Relevant log output

Chrome is blocking the automatic download of files with the following message on 'Downloads' Chrome tab: 'This file can't be downloaded securely'. With the previous version '4.18.0-20240220' the automatic download is working without blocking the download of files. Also, if you try to the following options on capabilities.json file, the download is not working:

 "chrome": {
    "chromeOptions": {
      "args": [
        "--enable-features=EnableManagedDownloads"
      ]
    }

Or

 "chrome": {
    "goog:chromeOptions": {
      "args": ["--disable-web-security"]
    }
  }

Also, if you try to set up secure domains, the browser is always up with this option disable.

We do not publish any image with a -automaticDownloads tag.

If you are looking for managed downloads in Grid, this should help https://www.selenium.dev/documentation/grid/configuration/cli_options/#enabling-managed-downloads-by-the-node.

Hi @diemol, Please, take a look at some information below. -automaticDownloads tag is our internal tag, no worries, there are no changes. We tried using your instructions, but we faced the same issue:

We triggered the docker (node-chrome:4.18.1) with these settings:
- SE_OPTS=--enable-managed-downloads true
We execute the test with chrome options ("se:downloadsEnabled": true) Could you help with this?? The same test works properly with 4.18.0 or earlier

That is a Chrome feature itself, not something Selenium control. There is probably a flag to disable it. 4.18.1 has Chrome 122, 4.18.0 has Chrome 121.

There are a few issues with downloads blocked and password data breach popups in chromedriver v122 causing test failures and it's not clear what prefs need set. https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromedriver/issues/detail?id=4730&sort=-id https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromedriver/issues/detail?id=4731&sort=-id
