Webdriver on firefox has stopped working suddenly. Uptill now it was working absolutely fine.When I run my test I get a blank firefox page and then in the eclipse console i get the error. org.openqa.selenium.firefox.notconnectedexception.
I was using WD latest jar 2.42.2 with the firefox version 32. It was working fine till an hour back, and suddenly it has stopped working.please help. Snapshot of error is as follows-
org.openqa.selenium.firefox.NotConnectedException: Unable to connect to host 127.0.0.1 on port 7055 after 45000 ms. Firefox console output:
Firefox 32 is NOT officially supported by Selenium 2.42.2. See here : https://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=7836
We can expect sometime this week for 2.43 to release which will solve this issue.
I need to upgrade selenium to version 2.43.1. Besides that I install the version 18 of guava.
It doesn't look to have relation, but it will work.
A similar situation arose for recently me. Using 2.43 Selenium Python driver with Firefox v36 which was working perfectly for months on end, and used every day. Suddenly bang, not working. Firefox had updated to v37. To solve it all I did was update using selenium using:
"pip install -U selenium"
Which installed 2.45.

For quite sometime now I have been trying to run protractor with Firefox (Windows) v48 and above to run my AngularJS application.
However, as per protractor docs:
WebDriver support for Firefox has changed recently, and Firefox version
48 does not work properly with the current tools. For the moment, we
recommend testing against Firefox 47
This information was updated 3 years ago and nothing seems to have been done afterward.
Versions
OS - Windows 10 64-bit
Protractor - 5.4.2
Firefox - 68
selenium-stanalone-server: 2.53.1
AngularJS - 1.6.9
I did raise an issue recently on GitHub for the same, but it has not received traction yet.
I would like to know if anyone has been able to get around the issue for Windows.
Yikes, Firefox 48 is probably 2-ish years old. What you'll need to use is geckodriver. webdriver-manager should download the latest geckodriver automatically and you can either use direct connect or selenium standalone server to run this.
To download only the geckodriver binary, you could use:
webdriver-manager update --chrome false --standalone false
Note: chromedriver and selenium standalone jar file are downloaded automatically and these flags will turn them off.
When you want to start the server, you'll just use:
webdriver-manager start
or you could use directConnect. Direct connect will work as long as you used
a local version of webdriver-manager. It will not work if you used a global installed version of webdriver-manager.
I have freshly installed Centos7 Os on my machine and it has been observed that Optin message(Allow / Disallow) of browserpush came for the https site stops working.
I have checked this with multiple websites but none of them is working which is working on chrome browser.
Anyone having any idea how to rectify this?
You are probably using an Extended Support Release of Firefox and web push is currently disabled on that versions.
I get the following error:
unable to obtain stable firefox connection in 60 seconds (127.0.0.1:7055)
I am trying to run Rspec with watir, the ruby gem, on an Ubuntu box.
But I keep getting this error on Firefox 42.
I'm not sure what I need to do to resolve this networking issue.
Read the following but I am on a way later version of Firefox:
unable to obtain stable firefox connection in 60 seconds (127.0.0.1:7055)
Unable to obtain stable firefox connection in 60 seconds (127.0.0.1:7055)
gem update selenium-webdriver
Read the following but I am on a way later version of Firefox:
At the first link it says:
[Update - this can (was for me) still be a fix for this issue in 2015
|mdurrant|]
And:
Important note: The selenium-webdriver gem is updated, and a new
version released, for every subsequent version of Firefox. Presently,
version 2.25.0 is needed to support Firefox 15.
But your solutions was:
gem update selenium-webdriver
...which is not my interpretation of those posts. My interpretation is NOT that you always need the latest selenium for whatever version of Firefox you are using--rather they are trying to tell you that you need to match a selenium version to a Firefox version.
And in fact, there is an SO question titled:
Where can I find a definitive Selenium WebDriver to Firefox
Compatibility Matrix?
So, it looks to me like the latest version of selenium does not support Firefox 42. You need to install an earlier version of Firefox.
I have updated my Firefox version from v31 to v32. When I created my test cases in .net using web-driver, it was running perfectly in Firefox version 31 but as soon as I have updated my version to 32 it stopped running. It only opens the browser and doesn't navigate to URL. To solve this issue I uninstalled the v32 and installed v31 and its working fine. But I want to run on latest version.
Please advice. Any help would be appreciated.
Selenium WebDriver versions and Firefox versions are tightly coupled.
You need to use a Selenuim WebDriver version which supports Firefox v32. Usually the latest Firefox version supported in a particular Selenium WebDriver release is mentioned in the CHANGELOG.
If memory serves me, I believe Firefox v32 is supported in Selenium 2.43.0
I'm trying to run windowbuilder Pro in eclipse, but when I try, it says I'm running Firefox 10 and the debugger only supports up to firefox 8.
So how do I downgrade my firefox to 8? I'm running Ubuntu 11.10
If you're stuck on Firefox, yes .. you will have to downgrade.
You could try Chrome though ..
Firefox 10 works now with the plugin.
But you could also get a portable version of firefox.
This way you can test with also older version of firefox.

under Other version you can select different versions.
