Timeout exception: will not solve recaptcha on VFS website

[noramirkh]

Dear developer,

Thank you for your work on this module.

I am trying to solve recaptcha on below page: https://visa.vfsglobal.com/gbr/en/cze/login

It has V2 and V3 captchas, so I am trying to use your module for solving V2 as I guess it is not solving V3.

This is the code I use:

test_driver.get('https://visa.vfsglobal.com/gbr/en/cze/login') recaptcha_iframe = test_driver.find_elements(By.XPATH, '//iframe[@title="reCAPTCHA"]')[0] # as there are 2 reCaptcha iframes I pick first solver.click_recaptcha_v2(iframe=recaptcha_iframe)

I can see script clicks on checkbox, image selection pops up but then selenium throws exception:

solver.click_recaptcha_v2(iframe=recaptcha_iframe) File "\Projects\Python.venv\Lib\site-packages\selenium_recaptcha_solver\solver.py", line 81, in click_recaptcha_v2 captcha_challenge = self._wait_for_element( ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "\Projects\Python.venv\Lib\site-packages\selenium_recaptcha_solver\solver.py", line 230, in _wait_for_element return WebDriverWait(self._driver, timeout).until(ec.visibility_of_element_located((by, locator))) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "\Projects\Python.venv\Lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\support\wait.py", line 95, in until

May you check this please and share your thoughts.

Thanks

I think this is related to the issue I just created - where the iframe's source is different to what the solver code looks for by default.

See #22

Hi,

Thanks for letting me know about this issue. I looked into it, and the issue comes from the iframe's src attribute.

What I've done is change the logic to use //iframe[contains(@src, "recaptcha") and contains(@src, "bframe"). I've tested it for your example and issue #22, and it fixed it.

I have deployed a new version of the package, so please let me know if any more issues arise. Have a nice day!

Hello,

Thanks for the fix. So when I go step by step in debug mode it works. But when I run it it is failing.

Could you please advise is it a bug in your code or I am misusing your module?

Thanks

Hello,

Could you send me your script, so I can see if it's a package-related or a script-related issue? (Please make sure to remove any sensitive data like passwords, personal data, etc)

I tested my changes on that page, and they worked fine, so I suspect it's related to your script.

Thank you for your feedback.
