[Odoo][Odoov13] Run method with selenium

I have python script ( using selenium ) which is running by clicking in button in Odoo. This script run chrome with GUI by chromedriver. When it try to run i have error:

The process started from chrome location /usr/bin/google-chrome is no longer running, so ChromeDriver is assuming that Chrome has crashed

Everything is installed on my virtual machine with Ubuntu 18.04 on computer with Hyper-V (on windows) I know that this error is show because script don't have access to X server. So i add user to X with : xhost +SI:localuser:odoo_user

but still i have stat same problem :(

Solution

  • Problem solved by:

    1. pip install PyVirtualDisplay

    2. Download and install (you don't need that same version): https://ubuntu.pkgs.org/18.04/ubuntu-updates-main-amd64/xserver-common_1.19.6-1ubuntu4.4_all.deb.html dpkg -i xserver-common_1.19.6-1ubuntu4.4_all.deb

    3. apt install xfvb

    4. You always need to have that same version of chromedrive and chrome browser in system.

    After that chromedriver can run X session without GUI.
