6 years ago I've had a similar problem.
Also used Selenium2 for years, in a dated configuration. Updated to:
In previous configurations I used FireFox for testing. But I didn't got the new configuration running with FireFox 57.0.3 (64-bit) and the most recent geckodriver.
However got it running with Crome 63.0 and the chromedriver.

6 years ago And the keys() method worked? I can get it working with my new setup and written small tests to open pages and pick out elements to make sure the setup works, which is fine, it's just throwing the mentioned Exception when I try and send keys, which is a major issue as it means I cannot even log in to my system to test it!
I've tried using chrome, but just get a "Session not created exception"

6 years ago Everything works fine in the configuration I'm using with Chrome.
I'm still searching how to get it working with FireFox.

6 years ago Yeah I've got it working for Chrome now, so will carry on with that, hopefully Firefox will be fixed soon!

keys() is working perfectly fine with chrome, IE but not for Firefox. I have tried almost all of the 3.x selenium version but no luck. Is this with php binding or selenium or gecko side. Any workaround ?

6 years ago Gave up on Firefox in the end, turned to Chrome and now use selenium 4 with chromedriver. Still hit the occassional issue with compatability though!

Hi,
I've been using Selenium2 for a couple of years now and always with $this->keys('some text '); after clicking on an element, which worked fine. Recently however (without changing my use of keys()), this has thrown the exception in the title, is there any reason for this?
I thought it may have been as I was using a fairly dated set up, but now I've updated everything across the board and now run with the following:
I've come to the conclusion that it's no longer any of my versions, as the session is stared correctly and gets as far as clicking on the element I wish to use, but gets no further.
Thanks
