Chromium not render and the error: Session closed. Most likely the page has been closed.

Hello, I don't see the chromium open when I start the code. The error is shown as below:

/Users/node_modules/puppeteer/lib/cjs/puppeteer/common/Connection.js:218
            return Promise.reject(new Error(`Protocol error (${method}): Session closed. Most likely the ${this._targetType} has been closed.));
                                  ^

Error: Protocol error (Page.navigate): Session closed. Most likely the page has been closed.

Same issue here, anyone has a solution?

I faced this after upgrading to macOS Sonoma (coming from macOS Monterey).

This patch helped me, and it might help you:

You might need to set the executablePath to a different installation, too.

I ran pnpm dlx @puppeteer/browsers install chrome@stable in my home directory, then did this when calling upload:

const [link] = await upload(auth, [videoOptions], {
  executablePath: process.env.HOME +
      '/chrome/mac-124.0.6367.91/chrome-mac-x64/Google Chrome for Testing.app/Contents/MacOS/Google Chrome for Testing',
})

Your path may differ. Read the logs of the pnpm dlx @puppeteer/browsers install chrome@stable command.
