Always_open_pdf_externally and -start-maximized not working

[mhbm]

I uses this

 $args = array(
                "--no-proxy-server",
                "--no-default-browser-check",
                "--no-first-run",
                "--disable-boot-animation",
                "--disable-default-apps",
                "--disable-translate",
                "--disable-web-security",
                "--allow-running-insecure-content",
                "--ignore-ssl-errors=yes",
                "--ignore-certificate-errors",
                "--start-maximized",
                "--disable-blink-features=AutomationControlled"
            );

            $chromeOptions->addArguments($args);

 $prefs = array(
                "plugins.plugins_list" => ["enabled" => false, "name" => "Chrome PDF Viewer"],
                "plugins.always_open_pdf_externally" => true,
                "download.default_directory" => $this->selenoid_download_folder,
                "profile.content_settings.exceptions.automatic_downloads.*.setting" => 1,
                "profile.default_content_settings.popups" => 0,
                "profile.default_content_setting_values.geolocation" => 2,
                "profile.password_manager_enabled" => false,
                "download.prompt_for_download" => false,
                "download.directory_upgrade" => true,
                "safebrowsing.enabled" => false,
                "credentials_enable_service" => false,
            );

$chromeOptions->setExperimentalOption(
                'prefs', 
                $prefs
            );

$capabilities = DesiredCapabilities::chrome();
            $capabilities->setCapability(ChromeOptions::CAPABILITY_W3C, $chromeOptions);
            $capabilities->setCapability("enableVNC", true);

            $this->driver = RemoteWebDriver::create($host, $capabilities, 0, 0);

            $this->driver->get($url);

This happens in the selenoid-ui

The browser didn't maximized the page, but I put in the args. This is the first problem.

The second problem is this:

The pdf file opened in PDF Viewer, but in the configuration of selenium is to open externally.

The Selenoid version is:

You are using Selenoid 1.10.4!

I used the documentation, but all changes that I made didn't fix theses bugs.

@mhbm I would check Chromedriver logs in respective log file being saved by Selenoid when enableLogs capability is set. Probably Chromedriver is implicitly passing more arguments which prevent Chrome from using your feature. Also in our browser images there is no external PDF viewer installed.

[mhbm]

@vania-pooh Thank you for answer my question. The second problem ( about the pdf preview ) is about that the file is not download automatically. I read the documention of selenoid and I used the instructions , but didn’t work . I need that the download happens automatically.

About the first problem ( that the window is not maximum size ) I follow the documentation too and didn’t work too .

[vania-pooh]

@mhbm Selenium has a dedicated maximize call that should work.

[mhbm]

@vania-pooh I will try to use this . and about the problem with automatically download ?

[mhbm]

@vania-pooh I used the enableLogs capability.

And the images is :

I will search about this, but the logs didn't show anything

[vania-pooh]

@mhbm you are probably going to another Selenium server, not Selenoid.

[mhbm]

@vania-pooh thanks for the answer.

What is the correct selenoid?

[vania-pooh]

@mhbm should be on port 4445 according to your file.

[mhbm]

@vania-pooh If I use this port, the result is this:

And I change everything about the automatically download of PDF, but when I check the configuration, the option is always false:

Could you help me, @vania-pooh ?

[vania-pooh]

@mhbm then there is no log file saved.

[mhbm]

@vania-pooh and about the problems ? I can't resolve yet

[vania-pooh]

@mhbm I don't exactly know how this PDF flag is working. Probably your app is missing Content-Disposition header for the download to happen automatically.
