That version of Selenium is old and never meant to work flawlessly with Java 21. We don't go back and fix old versions, so I recommend unpacking it with an earlier version of Java.
What happened?
When running
jar --extract
to extract the contents of selenium-server-standalone-2.53.0.jar on Windows, it fails because the META-INF folder contains both aLICENSE
file and alicense
folder. This results in a name collision on Windows systems. Older versions of Java would just silently overwrite the duplicate files/folders, but recent versions of Java (not sure when this change was introduced but it fails with JDK21) fail instead.This problem causes all kinds of issues. For me it shows up in Eclipse as project build errors for projects that have a dependency on this file.
Please update selenium-server-standalone-2.53.0.jar to avoid the name collision.
