When I run
$ php artisan dusk tests/Browser/ExampleTest.php
It prompt the error
- Tests\Browser\ExampleTest::testExample Facebook\WebDriver\Exception\UnknownServerException: unknown error: Chrome failed to start: exited abnormally (unknown error: DevToolsActivePort file doesn't exist) (The process started from chrome location /snap/bin/chromium is no longer running, so ChromeDriver is assuming that Chrome has crashed.) (Driver info: chromedriver=2.45.615279 (12b89733300bd268cff3b78fc76cb8f3a7cc44e5),platform=Linux 5.4.0-107-generic x86_64)
I check the chrome driver, it is install correctly.
$ php artisan dusk:chrome-driver
ChromeDriver binary successfully installed for version 100.0.4896.60.
Then I google the error. They said to check the chrome version
$ /usr/bin/chromium-browser --version
/usr/bin/chromium-browser: 12: xdg-settings: not found cannot create user data directory: /home/shiro/snap/chromium/1952: Permission denied
My goal is need to run Laravel Dusk in Ubuntu 20.04.
***Make sure your chromium-browser need to REMOVE and INSTALL snap stable version MATCH with your Laravel Dusk Chrome Driver
Below is the step, I run:-
Next fix the Chromium issue by install via snap, then next error
$ sudo snap refresh --edge chromium
error: cannot communicate with server: Post http://localhost/v2/snaps/chromium: dial unix /run/snapd.socket: connect: no such file or directory
to solve the error, need to update the packages.
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:saiarcot895/chromium-beta
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install chromium-browser
Finally, it show the version. However, does not match my Laravel Chrome driver. Didn't solve my first issue. Still can't run dusk
$ /usr/bin/chromium-browser --version
Chromium 97.0.4692.20 Ubuntu 20.04
Next install snap version of Chrome and remove the chromium-browser
$ systemctl start snapd.service
$ sudo snap install chromium
$ sudo apt remove chromium-browser
IMPORTANT NOTE
$ /usr/bin/chromium-browser --version -bash: /usr/bin/chrome: No such file or directory
Boom~ It works~
