selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: connection refused

Hi,

I'm getting an error when trying to run EagleEye (replaced the persons name with XXXX)

==> How many jitters, higher is better [max 100]: 100
==> Opening Webdriver
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "eagle-eye.py", line 229, in <module>
    main(skipFB=args.skipfb, skipIR=args.skipir, skipY=None, FBUrls=[])
  File "eagle-eye.py", line 83, in main
    f.grabData()
  File "/tools/EagleEye/grabber/facebook.py", line 16, in grabData
    driver = cfg.getWebDriver()
  File "/tools/EagleEye/utils/config.py", line 40, in getWebDriver
    return webdriver.Firefox(profile)

    self.start_session(capabilities, browser_profile)

    response = self.execute(Command.NEW_SESSION, parameters)

    raise exception_class(message, screen, stacktrace)
selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: connection refused

(firefox launches, nothing seems to happen, eventually eagle-eye dies)

Have a look at Issue #17

you're right, geckodriver version issue, it works with v0.17 indeed
