Geckodriver must be in path, it's likely you haven't got it installed.

Simple fix :)

  1. Go to https://github.com/mozilla/geckodriver/releases

  2. Download Geckodriver

  3. Move Geckodriver to location in $PATH - for Linux this is /usr/local/bin

Should work perfectly after that.

Let me know if you need anymore help

Added a more automated fix for this with webdriver explicit definitions, users shouldn't have this issue going forward :)
