[Bug] "TypeError: page._client.send is not a function" when running npx extract-stealth-evasions

[decaffeinatedio]

Describe the bug When running npx extract-stealth-evasions on a variety of systems (PopOS 22 locally), I receive the error:

TypeError: page._client.send is not a function
    at Plugin.onPageCreated (/home/ian/.npm/_npx/352800/lib/node_modules/extract-stealth-evasions/node_modules/puppeteer-extra-plugin-stealth/evasions/user-agent-override/index.js:180:18)
    at processTicksAndRejections (internal/process/task_queues.js:93:5)
    at async Plugin._onTargetCreated (/home/ian/.npm/_npx/352800/lib/node_modules/extract-stealth-evasions/node_modules/puppeteer-extra-plugin/dist/index.cjs.js:496:21)

If I exclude the user-agent-override evasion, the command runs successfully.

If I exclude the user-agent-override evasion, the command runs successfully.

Can you describe how you do that?

[decaffeinatedio]

@Miosame Sure can:

npx extract-stealth-evasions -e user-agent-override

[Miosame]

@decaffeinatedio does that remove the error for you entirely? or does it still happen at the first launch

oh I just noticed, you're launching it directly, the same thing happens on the stealth plugin, I wonder what the alternative is there

Found how you can do the same on regular stealth: https://github.com/berstend/puppeteer-extra/tree/master/packages/puppeteer-extra-plugin-stealth/evasions/user-agent-override

const StealthPlugin = require('puppeteer-extra-plugin-stealth')
const stealth = StealthPlugin()
// Remove this specific stealth plugin from the default set
stealth.enabledEvasions.delete('user-agent-override')
puppeteer.use(stealth)

Try to downgrade to puppeteer 14.3.0. It solved TypeError: page._client.send is not a function error for me.

Any updates?

[berstend]

This should now be fixed in the latest update

[decaffeinatedio]

Now working on my end, thanks @berstend !

[MoKhajavi75]

Fixed in the new version!

cc. @decaffeinatedio Please close this issue

[berstend]

Thanks for confirming, closing this ticket now :)

Dont fix for me with 15.3.0 and ghost-cursor

Falling back to JS scroll method TypeError: page._client.send is not a function

[berstend]

@adinvadim ghost-cursor has nothing to do with our project, raise that issue with them: https://github.com/Xetera/ghost-cursor

edit, created a PR with them: https://github.com/Xetera/ghost-cursor/pull/62

[alecellis1985]

const client = await page.target().createCDPSession(); await client .send('Page.setDownloadBehavior', { behavior: 'allow', downloadPath: dir, }); tested in our production and it works fine
