Unable to start selenium server! #29

Closed trzytematyczna closed 6 years ago

trzytematyczna commented 6 years ago

Hi, I am trying to run the selenium method (API method runs without problems), I installed it beforehand, but while executing the example instagram-profilecrawl nacimgoura --thod=selenium, I get an error ✖ Unable to start selenium server!. Any clues what can be wrong?

hello, did you do this ? :

npm install selenium-standalone@latest -g selenium-standalone install

yep! I am also able to start the selenium standalone by itself (version: '3.8.1'), but no luck with using crawler...

Okay, thanks for the information. I'm watching this soon :wink:

Currently, crawl doesn't work for public profiles. I'll correct that when I have time. It work properly with privates profiles.
