I have a project where we have some Selenium tests. I have recently upgraded Firefox to 7.0.1 because it prompted me to and now the "WebDriver for Firefox" extension that these tests use is broken.
How can I fix this? Must I uninstall this current version of Firefox and install an older one? Or is there a file I can edit to tell it to ignore that the version is different?
An upgrade to Selenium webdriver to 2.8 would probably solve it.

Unfortunately this has been the case for every Firefox upgrade since 5.0
I would try with the latest selenium-webdriver. I run Firefox 7.0.1 as well and it works with selenium-webdriver 2.8.0.
You can tell Firefox to ignore plugin and extension versions.
Type about:config in the browser address bar
Right-click and create a new boolean value called extensions.checkCompatibility.7.0
Set this value to false
That should prevent the plugin raising an issue with its version compatibility to 7.0.1
i am working with FF-8. Just change the firefox version from standalone.jar. For this unzip your jar file with unzipper and search for install.rdf files in the unzipped files. Open them in word pad and change version. you can add the latest version of browser. There are five or six files that to be changed. after doing that again zip them change to extension .jar

My Selenium program written with Ruby randomly stopped working (it ran perfectly yesterday) and gave me this error:
Backtrace:: session not created: This version of ChromeDriver only supports Chrome version 89 (Selenium::WebDriver::Error::SessionNotCreatedError)Current browser version is 91.0.4472.77 with binary path C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Google\\Chrome\\Application\\chrome.exe
I've since tried:
Un & re-installing ChromeDriver (newest version, as I was using before)
Replacing my current version with version 89 along with changing the path (this resulted in the same error)
Following these similar issues 1 & 2
I'm not sure where to go from here
I had a similar problem recently with the C# version.
I would double check where Selenium is being ran from.
In my case it was debug/netcoreapp3.1\chromedriver.exe, so it was running an outdated version compared to the version of Chrome installed.
Make sure you have the correct ChromeDriver version from here
If this fails, check the Ruby bindings wiki here
I had the same problem, but in C#. I had to update Nugget for ChromeDriver to match versions. So I basically updated my ChromeDriver to 91.0.4472 and it's resolved the issue.
I am not able to find the option to open the scratchpad in Firefox version 81.0.
Normally it can be opened with Shift-F4. But obviously its not working for the newest version 81.0.
Any hints ?
I was in the middle of coding a project in Netbeans v8.2 and all of a sudden it closed down. When I re-opened it I seen the attached screen.I can't open any projects even though I can see them there, and most options are now greyed out. PLEASE anyone help. I run MAC OS. Please can someone tell me how on earth I revert back to an old version?
NetBeans Info
Screenshot of now Netbeans
You don't need to revert back to an old version of NetBeans. Your screenshot shows that NetBeans is incorrectly configured to use Java 11.0.1, but your version of NetBeans (8.2) does not support any version of Java greater than 1.8.
To resolve the issue you must reconfigure NetBeans 8.2 to use JDK 1.8:
Close NetBeans.
Install JDK 1.8 if it is not already installed. (You don't need to remove JDK 11.)
Locate the file netbeans.conf, which resides in the etc directory directly under your NetBeans installation directory.
Open netbeans.conf in a text editor, and locate the line containing the property value netbeans_jdkhome.
The line may be commented out with a leading #. If so, uncomment the line by removing that leading # symbol. Then set the value of that property to specify the actual path to your installed version of JDK 1.8 so that the line looks similar to this:
netbeans_jdkhome="/mypath/to/jdk8"
Save your changes and start NetBeans.
If you still have problems, one further thing you could try is to delete your user directory and cache directory:
Close NetBeans.
Locate and delete your User directory and Cache directory. Their paths are shown near the bottom of the NetBeans Info screen shot posted with your question.
Start NetBeans.
If you still have problems after doing all that then update your post with:
The symptoms of the new issue.
An updated Help > About screen shot.
Any relevant issues in the NetBeans log (View > IDE Log).
One related point regarding NetBeans support for different JDK versions:
As mentioned above, NetBeans 8.2 does not support any JDK > 8.
Apache NetBeans 9.0, the latest release, additionally supports JDK 9 and JDK 10.
Apache NetBeans 10, which will be available soon, will also support JDK 11.
updated mac os to big sur and NetBeans 8.2 Won't Run/Open on Mac
to resolve this problem:
find netbeans.conf and edited this file in this directory: /Applications/NetBeans/NetBeans\ 8.0.2.app/Contents/Resources/NetBeans/etc/netbeans.conf
and set this line: netbeans_jdkhome="/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_45.jdk/Contents/Home"
There is a known issue with the Safari WebDrier extension version 2.45 working with Protractor (found here), i need to downgrade to 2.38 to work with my protractor tests, any idea how i can do this?
i managed to locate the 2.38 extension .jar file (found here), i extracted the jar file and located the .safariextz file but when i installed using that it just installed 2.45 anyway instead of 2.38
I am completely new to Mac so that's why i don't know, i cant seem to find anything about downgrading safari extensions
I am working on Automation tool Behat/Mink . After upgrading Firefox version to 25 , i am seeing this error .
Curl error thrown for http POST to http://localhost:4444/wd/hub/session/execute with params: {"script":"return document.getElementById('user') !== null;","args":[]}
Failed to connect to 127.0.0.1: Can't assign requested address
I am using selenium webdriver version 2.37.0.jar as the server.
Support for Firefox 25 has been added in version 2.38. Current version is 2.39 which supports Firefox 26.
It is a good practice to check for the new selenium version every time Firefox upgrades. Updating the server should work.

run this command before running your tests
java -jar selenium-server-standalone-*
this will help you to resolve your problem
make sure your selenium latest version should be on same folder
